"Could not be happier with Jimmy and his crew. He was very professional and so was his entire crew. He sent out Laura to do a quote and showed me the cost room by room. The price we paid was more than fair for the work performed. We closed on the house and they started painting it the next day. I could not ask for better service. So very pleased with them that I am spreading the word to let other people know what a great company this is! Honestly, I haven't hung up a single piece of wall decor because I don't want to mess up my nice walls!!!"

"Job started when committed - professional and very personable. I'm thrilled with the job they did on my built-in bookcases, dog door, trim repair, installation of a shelf and a stoop in front of my storage shed. II've already given them a list for future fixes. Highly recommend."

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

Choices include wood, composite, and hardwoods, each with unique benefits.

There are approximately 5.33 board feet in a 2x4. You can use the board foot calculator in this article to easily find the answer. A 2x4 is 2 inches of thickness by 4 inches of width, so you need to find the length, with 8 feet being the most common. You’d use the calculator here to multiply 2 times 4 times 8, and then divide by 12, arriving at a total of 5.33 board feet. 

Pressure-treated decking may be worth it if you want a natural, insect- and rot-resistant decking material that will last for decades with proper maintenance. As such, it’s a much better option than untreated pine. Alternative wood decking materials like cedar and redwood tend to be less durable and more expensive. Some homeowners prefer composite decking, which is a low-maintenance alternative to wood but is also more costly.

Before installing a deck, you must build a base for the deck to rest upon, often made of compacted soil or gravel. While gravel is an optional material, it helps with drainage. Some contractors also recommend installing a weed control membrane, which helps provide a solid foundation for the frame. In the case of an elevated deck, a pro will often lay down a concrete slab as a foundation. 

A deck that isn’t attached to a house is called a floating or freestanding deck. These standalone decks are built near ground level, so they usually don’t need deck stairs. Some don’t even require permits. Generally speaking, building a floating deck is faster and more DIY-friendly than constructing one that’s connected to your home.
