"We have a large deck and smaller deck off our Master bedroom that needed cleaned and stained. The large deck also needed 5 boards replaced/repaired due to wood rot. Dennis was very professional and responsive throughout the entire process, from estimate to completion. Even leading up to the project he was in contact about possible dates he would want to start pending weather, giving us time to prepare the deck. Upon selecting a date, he showed up first thing every morning and stayed into the evening to complete the project in a timely fashion. He alone was not only able to complete both decks in 2 days, but did not cut any corners in the process, and our decks look amazing!! We were completely satisfied with all aspects of the job, have recommended Dennis to numerous people in our neighborhood, and will definitely use him again. He was very fair on price too, we received multiple estimates and he was right in line with most we felt comfortable with, even a little less than some."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Space deck handrail posts four to six feet apart. If the posts are more than six feet apart, the railing will be less able to withstand lateral forces and is more susceptible to breaking. Additionally, railing posts that are more than six feet apart may not be up to code, and you may face fines and be required to reinstall the posts to bring them up to code.

In most cases, sanding an old deck before staining it is necessary to achieve a decent finish. If your old deck has a relatively new stain finish on it and you're only doing touch-ups, you can generally skip the sanding part. However, if your goal is to make the deck look and function better, sanding first is a must. 

The choice between Trex, a brand of composite decking, and PVC decking depends on your priorities regarding budget, appearance, and environmental impact. Both materials are durable and resistant to moisture and insects. Trex is often considered more eco-friendly because it contains recycled wood and plastic and is 25% recyclable, while PVC is fully synthetic and harder to recycle. Aesthetically, Trex is designed to look more like real wood, whereas PVC often has a glossier, more plastic-like finish. In terms of cost, Trex is typically less expensive than PVC.

It depends on the type of wood. The average cost to build a deck out of pressure-treated lumber is $15 to $25 per square foot, but more affordable varieties such as bamboo and cedar cost less at around $3 to $10 per square foot. However, when comparing the cost of vinyl decking versus wood decking, it’s important to also consider ongoing maintenance costs. For example, most woods require regular sealing to keep them protected against weather and rot.

Trex states that its Trex decking is an eco-friendly composite material made of 95% recycled or reclaimed materials (including plastic and wood), making it a sustainable brand of choice. According to the company, Trex is one of the largest plastic bag recyclers in the U.S., with each 500-square-foot Trex deck containing about 140,000 recycled plastic bags.
