"They were very professional and did an awesome job! My only complaint is certain spots were not sanded down from the old paint and also they were very neat but I still had to vacuum after they left. My house is completely transformed and in their defense they were working 7 days a week to get things done before the holidays. I would use them again and recommend others to hire them as well. You cannot see the minor imperfections (I only see them due to me cleaning but when people come over it's not noticable at all)"

"Mike did an excellent job in repairing my 30+ year old deck by removing all deck boards, railings and stair stringers and installed all new PT lumber. In addition, he replaced all joist hangers. I am very pleased with how the deck turned out."

"Bill was not only responsive and professional, he worked around my crazy schedule which had him coming to my place on Sunday and at night. He is a hard worker and completely honest and trustworthy. I had him remove rotted stairs from the side of my house and rebuild with a little extra room. It was a necessary project but after completed, it was so beautiful that I now enjoy being at the back of my house. In five years of ownership, I never once wanted to be in my backyard. I not only highly recommend him but will definitely have them out for more projects"

"Everything went great with Deck Dudez! Tom came out to inspect our deck along with giving us the best options for rebuilding. He was polite, professional and made us feel confident in our choice to go with him. Deck Dudez worked with us to create the deck I had envisioned and it looks beautiful! I look forward to many days spent out there! Will definitely be calling again for when we need to front done."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

The proper height for a stair riser or deck step is between four and seven inches, with seven inches often considered the most comfortable. Building your stairs to this height ensures a strain-free step position and minimizes the risk of trip and fall injuries. For optimal safety and comfort, especially on deck stairs, a rise of around seven inches should be paired with a tread depth (or run) of at least 10 to 12 inches. While it is possible to design stairs with risers up to 12 inches, this height can be challenging for children, pets, or individuals with mobility issues. Always check with your local building codes, as they may mandate specific dimensions that differ from these general recommendations.

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.

While you can use various materials like sand or even just soil, gravel is widely considered the best option to put under a deck. It provides excellent drainage and is resistant to water, fire, and pests. Gravel also helps anchor the soil to prevent erosion during heavy rain and acts as a built-in weed blocker, reducing regular upkeep. Furthermore, it is simple to spread, available in various textures and tones, and adds a polished look that complements any deck design.

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.

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.
