"Matt and his crew are great. They always do an outstanding job. In addition to maintaining my lawn weekly, theyâ ve also done other small jobs for me (reconfiguring/adding to an existing vinyl fence and planting a few trees). Matt is always professional and is always available to answer questions. His prices are very reasonable."

"Dave and his son did a terrific job. I first hired him to stain my deck and he did such a wonderful job, I decided to have him paint my whole house. Dave provided a very fair price, communicated clearly and was very efficient. I would highly recommend him for any painting needs."

"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

How long it takes to install composite decking depends on the size of the decking material, the skills of the person installing the deck, the number of people helping, and how much prep work needs to be done before you can begin. Generally speaking, it takes anywhere from a few days to several weeks to build a composite deck.

The proper and most comfortable height for a deck stair riser, also called a step, is between four and seven inches. A height of seven inches is often considered ideal for a strain-free step that minimizes the risk of trips and falls. While it is possible to have risers up to 12 inches, this height can be challenging for children, pets, or individuals with mobility issues. For optimal safety and comfort, pair a seven-inch riser with a tread depth (or run) of at least 10 to 12 inches. Always check your local building codes, as they may have specific requirements that differ from these general recommendations.

In the majority of cases, you don’t need regulatory permission or permits to remove decking components and materials. However, the exception is if you live in or near a wildlife conservation area, which could require permits and consent prior to beginning the demolition. Check with a local regulatory agency for more information.

Before installing any materials under the deck for removing moisture, you should perform some prep work on the ground. Work the dirt under the deck to create a grade away from the home. A grade of at least six inches for every 10 feet works well. Do not leave a gap between the dirt and the home’s foundation where water could pool. Once you or a contractor regrades the dirt under the deck, you then can add materials over the top.

There are several methods for attaching stair stringers to a deck. The best way is to bolt the stringers to the deck joists using three carriage bolts in a triangular pattern. This method offers the sturdiest fit for stairs that won’t budge. Alternatively, attach the stringers to the deck rims using lag bolts or to the posts using adjustable slope hangers.
