"Fred and Curt did a very professional job for us. They met our requirements and completed the job within the agreed timeframe. They were very neat - no paint splatters, chips, sanding debris, etc. anywhere after they left. There was no need for any callbacks to "touch up" spots. We would hire them again."

"In July 2020, we asked Tom from Mastrand Custom Decks to meet us at our vacation home in Cherry Grove. We had the house for 24 years, and the decks were in serious need of repair. Tom had ideas on how the decks should be completed and drew up the plans. We had several changes during the process, and Tom handled those with patience and a great attitude. Working with Tom was a pleasure from start to finish. Tom offered suggestions we wouldn’t have thought to request. The final product was beautiful and well constructed. I highly recommend Mastrand Custom Decks. The new deck has drastically improved our curb appeal. Thanks Tom."

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

Cutting the boards directly is one of the fastest ways to remove deck boards with hidden fasteners. Mark two parallel lines that are one-third of the total measurement on both ends and cut out the centerpiece. Then, remove the end of the board that doesn’t have a fastener. Finally, pry open the fastened side and pull it up to pop out the screw or access the fastener. This also allows you to salvage portions of boards for other projects.

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.

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.

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.

Be careful when choosing a product to help you remove ice from your wood deck. Never use sand, gravel, or salt, since these items can damage and scratch the wood. Instead, look for chemical de-icers that are marked as safe for wood decks or use hot water to melt snow and ice.
