"Eric and Daniel are very personable and professional. They are always prompt, whether it be to give an estimate or to do the work. While on the job, they are respectful of my home and go out of their way to clean up as they go. They are more than willing to do almost anything I need done. They have even assisted me in installing and rearranging woodpecker deterrents I bought. I couldn't recommend them any higher. A++++"

"Great experience! I've hired them for 2 jobs spanning the course of 4 days of work and they always showed up as scheduled and were very polite and respectful of our home and did the jobs exactly as I asked. We are renovating a very old home (built in 1902) so it was important to me to try to match the trim work that already existed and they did a phenomenal job with this. I have plans to hire them again as soon I can. They respond to phone calls and texts quickly and provide estimates fast too. Very knowledgeable and willing to work with our wonky unlevel home. Absolutely recommend."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

It is recommended to clean your deck once or twice a year to prevent the accumulation of dirt, debris, mold, and mildew. The ideal times for cleaning are in the spring and fall. A spring cleaning removes grime that has built up over the winter, preparing your deck for summer use. A fall cleaning washes away messes from summer activities, preventing them from setting into the wood over the winter. The exact frequency can depend on factors such as how often the deck is used, its exposure to pollen, and whether salt was used on it during the winter. Regular cleaning helps protect the wood and its finish from damage.

Composite decking requires a solid foundation or substructure for support. This base is typically a frame composed of posts, beams, joists, and footings. The frame can be built from various materials, such as composite, plastic, timber, or metal, depending on your budget, deck type, and environmental conditions. For maximum stability, a professional deck builder may recommend installing this frame on top of a solid concrete base. It is best to discuss the most suitable substructure design and materials for your specific project with a professional.

If you want to make a deck cleaner from products already in your home, there are various options. The most common is to use a gentle blend of 1 gallon of warm water and 2 tablespoons of ammonia-free dish soap. You can also mix water with distilled vinegar. Sprinkling on some baking soda can help to remove mold and mildew. You can add oxygen bleach (but never damaging chlorine bleach) to the water and ammonia-free dish soap solution for something a bit stronger. 

Homeowners should build their floating decks at least 18 inches off the ground. Having it at this height will allow for better airflow underneath and help prevent moisture-related problems like warping or rot. That being said, local guidelines for deck heights may vary depending on where you live.

In many areas, a floating deck that isn’t connected to your home and stays under 200 square feet and below 30 inches in height may not need a permit. These freestanding structures are often considered low-risk, which can simplify the building process. However, building codes vary greatly based on location. Before investing in any home improvement project, check with your local permitting office for deck-building guidelines.
