"Recently had a section of fence put in and our deck extended. From the initial contact through the completed project, Curt did a very professional job. His suggestions and his attention to detail were impressive. He will be on the top of our list for home improvement projects in the future."

"Wesley did a thorough and efficient job with our deck. He got everything completed in a few days. My only issue was a cracked board which he replaced quickly. The deck looks great and is getting a lot of use this summer. I would definitely recommend him."

"I called The Driveway Lady to get a quote and ideas on how to solve a difficult problem with my concrete porch. My home was built in the late 1800s and has a large raised concrete wrap around porch surrounded by beautiful stone walls. Replacement would be prohibitive, but there were some substantial cracks and pitting. It was like walking on an ocean reef, it was so rough, and the repairs made to the cracks wouldn’t hold, but Jean determined that it was otherwise secure with no water penetration below. She suggested they repair the cracks with hydraulic cement and then coat the entire surface with Miracote to seal both the cracks and smooth the surface and protect from future pitting. They worked with me to get the color right when I didn’t like the initial application.  Jean stands by her work and does an outstanding job. The people she has working for her are also courteous, pleasant and easy to work with. I can’t recommend her and her team enough."

"I highly recommend Jason (Jay) and his brother Chris, their quality of work is outstanding! They worked with us to update our worn wooden deck to a beautiful composite with aluminum railings. Very professional throughout the entire project as they worked overtime to meet a specific deadline."

"I was looking for someone specializing in metal roofing and framing to enclose a concrete front porch. We found Jacob online and were so extremely satisfied with the way he took care of every small detail from the start of getting an estimate to the finished product! I canâ t wait to have him and his crew(Ben & Stevie) to build something for us again! Theyâ re family now!ð It was as if Jesus(The Carpenter)built this for us himself! Absolutely the most beautiful work Weâ ve ever seen! So very happy we found him!! Definitely would recommend Jacob & his Crew to Everyone!!! LOVEâ £ï¸"

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

Spindles on a deck may also be called balusters or pickets. While not as important to the structural support of the deck as the rail posts, they play a critical role in ensuring the deck is safe to use by closing in large gaps in the railing. For this reason, balusters must be no more than 4 inches away from one another.

Yes, adding railing to a deck is a great way to improve safety and your home’s aesthetic appeal. Railings can be constructed from wood, metal, or composite, and there are plenty of choices regarding design and style. Always consult local building codes before starting any building project—there are often requirements regarding spacing and height that can differ slightly from place to place.

Deck stairs should have at least three stringers rather than two. The recommended minimum width for stairs is 36 inches, and the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors recommends at least three cut stringers to provide sufficient support on wood decking stairs of this width. Generally, stringers should be a maximum of 16 inches apart for wood decking and 12 inches apart for more flexible composite decking.

Composite decking requires a solid foundation, substructure, or subframe to ensure stability. This base is typically composed of posts, beams, joists, and footings. The frame's joists can be built from various materials like composite, plastic, timber, or metal, as long as the base can support the deck's weight without shifting. A professional deck builder might recommend installing the frame on a solid concrete base for added durability. The final design and materials for the substructure will depend on your budget, the type of deck, and environmental conditions.

Yes, deck pier blocks can be used as an alternative to traditional deck footings, particularly for small or low-to-the-ground decks. Unlike poured concrete and buried post footings, deck blocks don’t require digging or pouring. However, their use is regulated by local building codes, and they may not be permitted in areas prone to high winds, earthquakes, or hurricanes. Always consult your local building codes before choosing them for your deck project.
