"Our Deck was replaced with pavers for fire mitigation. Nate did a super job laying the pavers on two separate levels. Because of the very good work that he did for us we had him come back and do several handyman projects in our home."

"We recently had Claymore Residential and Commercial Painting come to paint the inside of our home and we couldn?t be happier with the results! We weren't sure what color scheme to go with, but with Grayson's expert eye he helped us find the perfect match. We were impressed by how he got back to us the same day we reached out, did a walkthrough that evening, started work that weekend and had the job finished by Monday, just in time for our daughter's graduation party. Grayson is very professional but down to earth and personable too, which is nice beings he's a stranger in your living space. We noticed how Grayson clearly takes pride in his work because everything was spotless at the end of each day you'd never known he was even there. Grayson work is very good and he is time efficient. Our house looks fantastic! Highly recommend him to anyone!! I?m already planning to have him paint the exterior next!"

Deck Maintenance FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Ideally, a gate should be able to swing both in and out. However, if it can only open in one direction, it is generally best for it to swing inward. This is often the safest option, especially for deck gates near steps, as you'll want the gate to swing away from the stairs. An inward swing also prevents the gate from opening into a public space, like a sidewalk, and can be more convenient when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.

There are exceptions, however. The layout of your property may require a different approach. For example, if your property is on a slope, the gate may not be able to swing inward. You should also ensure the gate can open fully without colliding with any objects or blocking access to other areas. For a backyard garden gate where public access isn't a concern, the direction it swings is largely a matter of personal preference. Finally, always check your local building codes, as they may have specific requirements for which way a gate must swing.

Most building codes list a minimum width of 36 inches and a maximum height of 7¾ inches. However, for the most comfort and spaciousness, you’ll want to aim for a width of at least 48 inches and a height of 7 inches. Again, it’s always a good idea to base your numbers off steps that you already use comfortably.

No. In most cases, it’s not colder or freezing temperatures that affect decking materials but the amount of moisture that seeps into the materials as a result. For example, wood decking material is more likely to suffer from rot or decay when exposed to excess moisture from snow or ice. An extreme change in temperature can cause wood to expand or contract, but only if it’s not properly treated beforehand.

Pressure-treated lumber is one of the most affordable types of decking upfront. This material is widely available, so you can usually find pressure-treated lumber at almost any local home improvement store you visit. Keep in mind that wood requires a lot of upkeep with repainting and restaining, so any kind of wood may be more expensive in the long run than something like PVC decking.
