"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.

"Prestige showed up when scheduled, ensured they knew my expectations before they began the work, cleaned up the site, and when done they asked if their service met my expectations. The job was completed consistent with the original quote. I have no complaints and would recommend their tree services based upon the job they completed for me."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

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.

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. 

Building codes for deck railings can vary by location, so it's important to consult your local regulations before construction. Generally, a guardrail is required for any deck that is more than 30 inches above the ground.

For residential properties, the standard minimum height for a deck railing is 36 inches. However, some states and municipalities have stricter requirements; for example, California and Washington mandate railings that are at least 42 inches high. Therefore, a 42-inch railing is not considered too high and may be required in your area or chosen voluntarily for additional safety.

In addition to height requirements, codes also specify other safety features, such as the maximum spacing between balusters to ensure they are close enough to prevent a child from squeezing through.

A random orbital sander is best for sanding a deck because it is easier to handle than other power sanders and is less likely to damage the wood. Most decks are made of types of softwood, so a gentler sanding process is essential to prevent permanent blemishes. For example, belt sanders can gouge softwoods.

Ultimately, overapplication of stain can compromise the deck's appearance, durability, and longevity. It may result in an uneven finish, with excess stain pooling, dripping, or drying into thick patches. It can also obscure the wood's natural grain and texture, detracting from the desired aesthetic. Moreover, excessive staining may not fully penetrate the wood, leading to poor adhesion and premature wear. Additionally, thick layers of stain are prone to peeling, cracking, and blistering as they struggle to bond with the surface.
