"Randy Cole and his crew replaced a series of large, irregular (and often slippery) natural stepping stones that traversed 65 feet with an elevation gain of 9 feet with a beautiful walkway constructed of Cambridge Ledgestone Vermont Slate pavers and 13 or so cast stone stairs. They also replaced a large area with gravel underneath our deck with the same pavers. Randy and his helpers then did a wonderful job of fixing a stone wall next to our new walkway using a combination of the stones they had removed plus a palette of blue mountain wall stone. After all the construction was finished, the area adjacent to the walkway was returned to its original condition, mulch was laid down, and the section of our lawn that was used as a staging area for the work was repaired and reseeded. Other work included rototilling a section of the lawn in anticipation of creating a garden there next summer, and laying down stones around the border of this intended garden, I heartily recommend using this company for your stone work, Most importantly, Randy is there every step of the way, working alongside his small crew, making sure the work is done correctly. Description of work: Built walkway, rebuilt stone wall, moved stones, replaced gravel area under deck with pavers, rototilled garden, laid down mulch, reseeded part of lawn.

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

There are several methods for attaching stair stringers to a deck. The best way is to bolt the stringers to the deck joists using three carriage bolts in a triangular pattern. This method offers the sturdiest fit for stairs that won’t budge. Alternatively, attach the stringers to the deck rims using lag bolts or to the posts using adjustable slope hangers.

DIY staining or painting is manageable with proper preparation, including safety measures, necessary tools, and adherence to safe weather conditions for application.

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.

Covering your deck with a breathable tarp can protect it from snow, ice, and cold winter temperatures. This is a good winterizing solution if you don’t plan to use your deck at all during the colder months. However, it might be best to skip the tarp if you’ll still be walking on your deck or using it in a limited capacity.

Yes, pressure washing a wood deck can be a good idea as it effectively lifts ingrained dirt, mold, and mildew, improving the deck's appearance and longevity. However, it must be done carefully, as it's easy to damage the wood, especially softwoods. To pressure wash safely, use a lower pressure setting and a wide, 40-degree fan pattern nozzle (often white). Keep the nozzle at least a foot away from the wood surface and maintain constant motion, avoiding hovering in one spot to prevent gouging.
