"Dave and his crew did an outstanding job refinishing my deck. They were here on time, removed everything from the deck, power washed, sanded, and applied the stain. They also put new locks on my gates. They let it dry overnight and will come back to place all my deck furniture where it was. While they were here Dave noticed we did not have a cap on our chimney. He went up to check it t out and saw that the cement around the top was all cracked. He went and got a cap for us, put new cement around the chimney, and installed a cap. Our deck really needed to be refinished and now it looks brand new. I would most definitely recommend them for any job."

"David is great. I'd call him again and recommend him to everyone. The project started and ended on time, even though the humidity was against us. He was on time every day and a pleasure to have in the house. Unfortunately, I talked to him a couple of times (great conversationalist) and even though I slowed him down; he plugged on in a great mode. They say you get what you pay for; I got way more than what I paid for. He wasn't the cheapest, he wasn't the most expensive and gave a veterans discounts. But the job turned out way better, then expected and turned what we had done into part of the show case of our house. He fixed holes, dents and cracks; sealed, put on 2 coats, and just made the paint sparkle (flat finish lol) If you need paint, David is the man to call."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Composite decking may never warp, or it may warp quickly. Several factors can influence the rate of warping, including the material's quality, installation method, and installation location. Generally speaking, high-quality materials that have been installed properly are drastically less prone to warping.

You can build an outdoor kitchen on a deck, but you should choose composite decking since it's more heat-resistant. Metal deck materials like steel and aluminum are also good choices because they're less flammable than wood. You should also consider the weight of the kitchen—make sure your deck can support it and any appliances you plan to use. You should consult a structural engineer to confirm exactly how much weight your deck can safely support when building an outdoor kitchen. 

Hangers are one way of attaching stair stringers to a deck. These metal hangers are usually adjustable, allowing you to find the ideal angle for a secure installation. They’re the best choice for installing longer staircases, such as one on a two-story deck, to reduce the load on the deck frame while keeping the stairs stable.

Yes, Ipe wood is a popular high-end choice for pool decking. It repels water and is naturally slip-resistant. It's not susceptible to mold, mildew, or rot, either, so it lasts longer and is cleaner and more hygienic than other popular decking materials. However, remember that due to its status, it is a very high-cost wood, and you might find that an alternative would serve you just as well for significantly less.

Yes, you can build a deck over your outdoor HVAC unit, but you need to leave at least 5 feet of vertical clearance above the unit. If you don’t want your deck to be that high off the ground, you could build a floating deck in another part of your yard—again, as long as you leave at least 4 feet of horizontal space between the deck and your AC unit.
