"D&J are fabulous to work with, and I cannot recommend them enough! They repaired our rotting deck, helping to replace joists, a few rotting posts, switching the deck to composite, adding a new railing, building a custom bar, sanded and restained part of our deck, and replacing the kickplates under the doors to match the new composite. I had tried the traditional way of finding a repair company by doing an Internet search. One company came out but never gave us a quote. I called over a month later and they said they were working on it, but they never responded after that. Another company sent a salesman out to look at the job. He took measurements and said he would get me a quote soon, but it was several weeks later and very expensive (likely more to cover his salary). Frustrated, I went to Angiâ s list (HomeAdvisor) and found D&J. I emailed them late on a Saturday night, and Jason called me the next day. He and Dustin came out that week to look at the job, he got me a quote in just a few days, and their pricing was very reasonable. What I appreciate about D&J is that not only are they reasonably priced, they are the two that you deal with in the whole process. I have found that when there are sales people and installers that often things are not communicated well or mistakes are made (like a salesperson telling you it can be done but the installer saying it canâ t). D&J does it all, so you know exactly what you need, what it will cost, and who will do the work. Plus, theyâ re just great, honest guys. My retired neighbors watched them every day, and they would tell me how hard they worked from about 8:00 to 4:00 every day. They were so impressed that theyâ ve told their family about them. Weâ ve told our family and friends, too, and we plan to use them for some other work at a different house we own. If you want honest guys who are going to give you honest pricing and do an honest dayâ s work, you can do no better than Jason and Dustin. We are so glad we found them, as now we know who our first call will be to whenever we need work down around our house."

"Had them at the house three times. They were on time each day. They were working on my project within 5 minutes of arriving. They were precise in their work and cleaned up well afterwards. I recommend them for a variety of home jobs."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

A deck is typically attached to a house and accessed via the back door. Decks are usually constructed from wood or composite materials. A terrace, on the other hand, is a raised platform that can be attached to or detached from the house and is typically made from a hard-paved material, such as paving stones. Terraces can be built on the ground or on the roof of a home.

Most building codes require that spindles or balusters on deck and stair railings be spaced no more than four inches apart. This safety standard, often called the '4-inch sphere rule,' is designed to prevent small children or pets from slipping through the railing. A good way to visualize this is that a 4-inch sphere should not be able to pass between two spindles. For the same safety reason, the space between the bottom rail and the deck floor 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 crucial to check your local building codes to ensure compliance before starting your project.

Choosing whether your deck should be lighter or darker than your house is a matter of personal preference, as there is no right or wrong answer. However, considering the pros and cons of each can help guide your decision. Darker colors are often chosen because they show less dirt, footprints, and marks from daily wear, making them easier to keep clean. On the other hand, lighter deck colors tend to stay cooler in the summer. From a design perspective, using a deck color that contrasts with your home's exterior can help make the deck a more defined and distinct feature. Consulting color theory can also make the process of choosing a complementary house and deck color combination easier.

The best way to clean your decking is to clear debris from the gaps between the boards, sweep the surface, rinse it, apply cleaner, rinse again, and let it dry fully. A homemade deck cleaner made of two gallons of warm water and 1/2 cup vinegar is a simple cleaning solution for both wood and composite decking. You can sprinkle baking soda on any spots with mold or mildew, then scrub the area and rinse clean. 

The most likely causes of a deck leaning to one side are damaged deck posts, soil erosion, and inadequate deck footings. If you’re not sure about the exact cause, the best option is to call a contractor who can build a deck to inspect the damage and recommend the best way forward.
