"Jonathan and his did a great job on our Trex deck. They had numerous delays dues to incompetence by manufacturers and poor communication by Grayco. Unlike most contractors, Jonathan always kept us updated Thru all the delays, They ended up having to go to Atlanta to get the materials, Great job. You wonâ t go wrong hiring this company. Thanks again"

"I can’t say enough good things about Dallas and his father Bryan. They recently completed several handyman projects around my house, and the quality of their work was outstanding. They were professional, reliable, and paid close attention to every detail from start to finish. Not only did they do excellent work, but they were also honest, respectful, and easy to work with throughout the entire process. They showed up when they said they would, kept everything clean, and made sure the job was done right the first time. It’s hard to find people who genuinely care about their craftsmanship and customer satisfaction the way Dallas and Bryan do. If you’re looking for dependable handyman services, I highly recommend them. I’ll definitely be calling them again for future projects."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

That depends on the condition of your deck. An older deck that looks drab, worn, or has multiple damaged boards might be worth replacing before selling. However, if your deck is in good condition, you can simply clean, repaint, or stain it.

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.

Footings for ground-level decks need to be at least 12 inches deep, and some areas require them to be even deeper. A standard range for deck footings is anywhere from 12 to 48 inches. The minimum footing depth is determined by an area’s frost line and soil conditions. If you’re unsure how deep to install deck footings, check local building codes to find the minimum footing depth in your area. 

Your deck may pop, and your neighbor’s deck may not for a number of reasons. Whether or not a deck pops will depend on how it was made, the conditions it’s exposed to, and the materials. Improper spacing is a common reason for increased pressure between deck boards. Moisture penetration is another.

Deck skirting shouldn’t touch the ground, especially if you have a wood deck, which is vulnerable to moisture. Ideally, you should leave at least 3/4 of an inch of space between the deck skirting and the ground for more ventilation. Pros also recommend that you incorporate about 1 square foot of space for ventilation for the underside of the deck to every 150 square feet of decking. Proper ventilation prevents mold growth and rot that can damage your deck.
