"Al's team built our dream deck! From the get-go Al was completely available to come to our house to walk through what they could offer, timelines, prices (unbeatable!), etc. The professionalism was never in question, and we were always able to reach Al and the team when we needed something. They offered suggestions and advice, and they were able to show examples from other projects they've done to help us visualize our space. The project was done early, and the team was an absolute joy to have at our house. This deck is so much more beautiful than we ever could have imagined, and it is where we will be hosting family events and spending many moments. It's been our biggest addition to our home. I could not recommend this team enough. Go with Al's!!!"

"Melvin and his crew installed a new front door for me. They were efficient, thorough, and professional. They encountered some issues with the materials that were completely outside of their control, yet they found a way to overcome the challenges and the installation came out perfectly. We were extremely impressed with everything about them. We plan to use them for our next project coming up in the spring. Highly recommend!"

Decks and Porches questions, answered by experts

Landscape timbers can last 10 to 20 years in the ground when installed correctly. Pressure-treated timbers will last longer than non-treated ones, as pressure treatment makes the wood more rot-resistant. Wood exposed to high moisture levels or extreme temperature and weather fluctuations may not last as long as wood in drier areas with more consistent weather.

Deck pier blocks are one alternative to traditional deck footings. Unlike poured concrete and buried post footings, deck blocks don’t require digging or pouring. They’re best for small or low-to-the-ground decks. Keep in mind, though, that not all areas allow the use of deck pier blocks, so consult your local building codes before choosing them for your deck.

Yes, but it works best with lightweight snowblowers, the single-stage models or electric versions. Also, you need to have a rubberized intake edge on the ground and preferably rubberized auger paddles, not a metal version. Otherwise you may chip or damage the surface as you work. When it doubt, let the snow lie.

You can also use a snow blower on leveled gravel, but only if you carefully adjust the intake height so it doesn’t kick up the gravel and turn it into flying missiles.

Putting lattice under a deck will create a polished look that allows for air ventilation. You can also store items underneath as the lattice provides privacy and protection from the weather. You can also put lattice under a porch to create a polished look in the front of your house.

Typically, most residential wooden decks are designed to support approximately 40 pounds per square foot, including the deck’s weight and any items placed on it. While this is fine for typical use, it is usually not enough to hold the weight of a hot tub filled with water and people. To safely support a hot tub, your wood deck will likely require reinforcement. Therefore, it’s best to have a contractor or a structural engineer assess it before hot tub installation.
