"Our project began with looking for a business to stain our backyard deck addition we had built last year, along with restaining and repairing our original deck. We also wanted to add shade to our deck. We had several companies come to understand our needs and give us quotes. Tyler from Houston Haus had very good ideas and offered a fair quote for our project. Tyler's combination of an engineering mindset and creative ideas persuaded us to hire Houston Haus. Tyler laid out the plans for the project from start to finish. He communicated when he was going to work and always kept us up to date on the progress of the project. Tyler always brought forward ideas on the esthetics of the deck and pergola to our attention. The end result was a very beautiful pergola and a total refurbish of the existing deck. We look forward to using Houston Haus for further projects."

"R&R showed up to perform the pressure washing, as scheduled. During their initial visit, they identified repair work that needed to be done in order to make our deck safe. (We had some steps that had rot, and were no  longer safe to walk down; unbeknownst to us.) The price for repair and staining was agreed to before work was performed, so there were no charges that were unexpected at the end.
At first, I thought that the staining they would do would be the same quality as what me and my husband would do, only it wouldn't take as long since there were more of them than there were of us. 
I was way wrong.
The deck that they completed work on looked much better than anything we could have completed. The job was well organized, and they performed a great job on the deck. 
I would, with no hesitation, say that the job they did on staining my deck was high quality and worth the money we paid.

"Brad came to our home and completely designed us a wonderful outdoor screened in porch that is attached to our house where we now spend the majority of our time, and also designed and remodeled our basement area to a beautiful living space/ game room that our guests really enjoy. He was prompt, thorough in his work and very knowledgeable and helped us pick out colors and themes. I would highly recommend his services."

"My husband is being relocated and we needed to hire a professional to help with various repairs and maintenance jobs to get our house ready to put on the market. I did not know who to call. I searched Home Advisor. About 10 minutes after I submitted a request for a handy man Greg called me. It was on a weekend. Greg made an appointment and arrived right on time. We walked through our home and outside and discussed the various jobs that needed to be done. He was prompt in getting me a quote and my husband and I decided to hire him. We were under pressure to move quickly due to the relocation and Greg was fantastic to work with. He juggle our job with his other jobs. His crew were professional and left the job all cleaned up. In addition to pressure washing the outside his crew did various painting, replacement of a ceiling fan and 5 drain assemblies. All the work was completed timely and professionally. After the job Greg stated that if I needed them to come back for any additional repairs he would be here. It was a great relief to know I had a team to help me get our house ready to list!"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Applying too much sealer to a deck might seem like extra protection, but it can cause more harm than good. Wood is a porous material with a limited capacity to absorb liquids. When you go overboard with sealer, the excess can't soak in and instead forms a film on the surface. This leftover layer is prone to peeling, cracking, and trapping moisture, ultimately defeating the purpose of sealing in the first place. 

The best way to sand a deck is by cleaning it, sanding the boards and stairs with 60- or 80-grit sandpaper, and sanding the railings and posts with 80-grit sandpaper. You should sand in the direction of the wood grain to avoid damaging the timber. When sanding your deck, use medium pressure and aim for an even sand. Pressing too hard with a sander can damage decks, as most are softwoods.

Yes, Ipe is more expensive than Trex decking—both in terms of materials and installation (plus, Ipe trees are endangered). On average, Ipe decking costs $10 to $25 per square foot, while Trex decking costs $5 to $12 per square foot. Because Ipe is harder to work with, the price of installation is higher, too. For Ipe decking, you’ll pay between $20 and $45 per square foot for labor. However, with Trex decking, the labor costs range from $8 to $22 per square foot.

Decks require several inspections during and after the building process, but the specifics vary depending on where you live. Most areas mandate that decks comply with local building codes and safety regulations for the foundation, framing, and structure. Some pros recommend a footing inspection, which verifies the depth, width, and location of the various footings to ensure they offer enough foundational support.

Yes, you can build a pool deck yourself, but it takes precision, a lot of time, and many specific tools. You’ll need to create a deck plan, be careful with measurements, cut each piece of wood, secure the pieces properly, and ensure the deck meets building codes. Building a deck around a pool is a rewarding DIY, but it’s time- and labor-intensive, so thoughtfully consider your abilities and the time you have before embarking on this DIY.
