"I am very pleased with refurbished deck. The pergola was pressure washed and stained. The deck was demoed to the framing and rotted joists replaced. All of the deck boards were replaced and meticulously cut around the pool. The worksite was cleaned up every night. Very pleased."

"Hire Them He arrived on time, gave me a fair estimate. I asked him to do additional work once he arrived and gave me a fair price for that. I've had my bluestone patio power washed several times over the last 10 years and none of the other people did such a good job. I would highly recommend him again and have recommended him to my neighbors."

"Highly recommend Four Seasons. These guys are awesome. I hired them to replace my shingle roof. They came out, inspected my roof, and went over everything I needed to know. They installed a Certainteed Landmark Pro shingle roof and gave me a 15 year workmanship warranty along with the Certainteed 50 year manufacture warranty. Can’t say enough good things about this company."

"Professionals thru and thru. I was most impressed on their review and recommendation of the best way to refinish my dining room table and my grandfather's dresser. At first I thought their prices seemed a little bit higher than I expected but after listening to their explanation why and seeing the outstanding attention to detail and high quality, I would have paid more. Finding someone to do this kind of work right is hard enough, but being lucky enough to find a detailed oriented professional was special!"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

If you have wood decking, there are several common deck problems that you might encounter. For example, your natural wood boards may fade over time due to things like sunlight, weather, and debris. On top of that, some types of wood decking can rot, grow mold, and attract destructive pests—including termites, carpenter ants, and woodpeckers.

Staining and sealing the underside of a deck creates a moisture barrier but traps water in the boards, quickly leading to rot. No matter how well you seal the above deck, water still gets through via nails and screw heads on the surface. Allow this water to flow naturally under the deck, where it is routed through the drainage system.

Building codes for deck railings can vary by location, so it's important to consult your local regulations before construction. Generally, a guardrail is required for any deck that is more than 30 inches above the ground.

For residential properties, the standard minimum height for a deck railing is 36 inches. However, some states and municipalities have stricter requirements; for example, California and Washington mandate railings that are at least 42 inches high. Therefore, a 42-inch railing is not considered too high and may be required in your area or chosen voluntarily for additional safety.

In addition to height requirements, codes also specify other safety features, such as the maximum spacing between balusters to ensure they are close enough to prevent a child from squeezing through.

Any wood deck provides some ventilation to the area below, as is the nature of that type of deck design. However, areas that experience excessive humidity and associated moisture benefit greatly from a dedicated ventilation system in the form of strip vents. This addition helps the various wood boards contract and expand evenly throughout the years and reduces the chances of twisting, warping, and buckling.

A deck doesn’t have to be perfectly level. Many pros even recommend a gentle slope to ensure proper drainage and increase longevity. The ideal gentle slope is about 1/8 to 1/4 inch per foot away from the property, leading water away from the home to prevent pooling and reduce the risk of damage. It also minimizes rot, mold, and other moisture-related problems.
