"From the very beginning I felt comfortable dealing with Cole, Ron and Sam. They were very personable and friendly. I knew they would do a great job, and they did. Communication is key with a project like this, and they did not disappoint. I received daily updates and there were no surprises. Our VERY LARGE deck project was done on time and their attention to detail and doing things right were spot on. If you have any deck or fencing projects, I highly recommend them. 10 Plus Stars :)"

"I hired Jack and crew to replace a portion of my deck. For a nominal fee, Jack came out, evaluated my deck and gave me an estimate. The nominal fee went toward the estimate, which I thought was fair and reasonable. The cost I felt was fair, not cheap, but not expensive. Jack is very attentive to details, communicative, and was happy to explain what they were doing during the process. The craftsmanship was top-notch. Not only do I strongly recommend Jack and crew for your decking needs, but have hired him to clean and treat my decks this coming fall."

"The crew was on time each day. They were professional and easy to work with. They patched and painted the deck and ceiling of my garage to stop the leaking into my workshop.The job came out real good. They had to move the furniture off my deck and some woodworking equipment from my workshop all went well. The real test for this repair will be when it rains later this week and there is no more leak. I would recommend A + for your future projects."

"Phil and his team did a wonderful job digging up my old patio and replacing it with a deck built with Trex materials. The job was done professionally and he worked with me, even when I added additional scope to the job. I highly recommend them and plan on using P Sqrd LLC for future projects."

"The roof looks fine but pretty much everything the folks at Exceptional will tell you will be a lie. I wished I would have used a different contractor. The only reason I'm not more upset is because I had another roofer inspect the work today and he stated the work was acceptable. I was contacted promptly after my initial inquiry, was paid a visit quickly, and received an estimate by Roman(one of the owners). A couple of months and several higher estimates later I decided to use Exceptional Exteriors. You get what you pay for. I was told my roof would take a day or two, it took 3. I was told there would be 5 guys working on the roof and they'd be done quickly. There was 3 the first day and 2 the second and they had to come back to finish the third day because they ran out of material. I was told I wouldn't have to pay anything until the work was complete and I was satisfied with the job they did. Roman came by promptly on day 2 to collect the money before the roof or cleanup was complete. I was told the workers would thoroughly clean up and use a magnetic roller to clean up the nails. That didn't happen either. I came home from work after the dumpster was removed on day 3 and picked up 16 nails from my driveway, and at least 40 nails from my back patio. I had a wasps nest removed from my soffit and fascia 3 weeks ago, and was told by the bee guy that there were tons of nails in my gutters. I called Roman and let him know and he stated he would send a crew out to clean the gutters the following Monday. That never happened so I had to clean the gutters myself. I pulled well over 100 nails from my gutters. He said the roof came with a warranty as did the shingles and it would come in the mail a couple of weeks after the roof was complete. I had to call and text Roman for two months and hear several excuses about why it hadn't been sent until I finally received the warranty. I believe had I never asked for the warranty that it would have never been sent. If you're interested in spending a ton of cash to clean up after the roofers, risk the tires on your vehicles from the nails left behind, and you don't mind being lied to, use Exceptional. If not, hire a different roofing contractor."

"Wow!!! It's been a long time since we have had someone the caliber of Nate come to do work on our home. He returned our phone call almost immediately...arrived exactly on time...got to work immediately...was thoughtful, professional and kept us in the loop the entire time. And the end result? PERFECT deck steps!!!! He was faced with a problem, quickly analyzed the situation and resolved it and now we have a beautifully fixed deck with some very sturdy amazing steps!! So grateful for Nate's work ethic and skills as a craftsman...like I said, it's been a long time since my husband and I hired a handyman that actually did what he said he was going to do and then went above and beyond to do an excellent job!!! Thank you, Nate - we highly recommend you!!!"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Most building codes require that railing spindles (also known as balusters) on decks or stairs be spaced no more than four inches apart. This safety standard is often called the '4-inch sphere rule,' which means a sphere with a 4-inch diameter should not be able to pass through the opening between balusters. This rule is in place to prevent small children and pets from slipping through the railing. For the same reason, the space between the bottom rail and the deck or floor surface should also be no more than four inches. As a general guideline, professionals often install three balusters per foot of railing. However, since specific requirements can vary by location, it is essential to check your local building codes to ensure compliance before starting your project.

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.

It’s important to make sure the wood on a new deck is properly seasoned. Seasoning a deck is simple: Once you build it (or have a pro do so), just leave it alone so it can acclimate to the environment. If you don’t give the deck proper seasoning time before staining, the stain can lock in any lingering moisture and cause mold, rot, and other moisture issues down the road. Give the wood at least four to eight weeks to season before you stain.

Yes, you can attach a deck to a mobile home, but it’s important that the work be done correctly to avoid the potential for major damage to your home. Many building codes require that any additions to mobile homes—including decks—be either freestanding or have their own support structures. Getting permits may require submitting the home's original floor plan, the proposed floor plan, framing details, and more. 

Yes, you can draw your own deck plans in many cases. However, you must know your local building codes and be familiar with carpentry principles. Even then, it's always best to run your plans by a professional contractor with experience building decks, whether you choose to DIY some of the build or not.
