At East TN Trades we specialize in custom decks and porches as well as many other forms of finish carpentry and wood working.

"We had just purchased a home and wanted to enclose our screened in back porch. East TN Trades came out immediately to take a look at the scope of work, and I had a quote in my inbox within just a few business hours (not days). After receiving several previous outlandishly priced quotes from other impersonal contractors, I was excited to be given a very reasonable and exceptionally detailed quote by ETT. Our experience with ETT was unlike any I have every experienced with a contractor. I was given daily updates on the progress, received immediate answers to any question I had, and was blown away by the craftsmanship of the entire team. I can honestly say they went above and beyond what I was expecting. Naaman was referred to me by a friend, and I am so glad he was. If I ever have any major work needing done around our house again, I will not hesitate to reach out to them, and encourage anyone to do the same!"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Several types of porches are available to meet your needs and style preferences. Some common porch types include:

Porticos are essentially a roof over a walkway leading to the home's front entrance.
Sunrooms are closed-in porches that are an extension of the house with glass or plastic panels that allow optimal sunlight.
Wraparound porches extend around the entire home, or at least the front and one side, and offer multiple entrances to the house.
Back porches are an extension of the home’s floor into the outdoors. These offer more protection and privacy than a deck.

Any wood deck provides some ventilation to the area below, as is the nature of that type of deck design. However, areas that experience excessive humidity and associated moisture benefit greatly from a dedicated ventilation system in the form of strip vents. This addition helps the various wood boards contract and expand evenly throughout the years and reduces the chances of twisting, warping, and buckling.

Learning how to repair rotted wood is something that you can do after stopping existing wood rot from spreading. After removing the wood rot, you can put new wood in place of the ruined wood or use wood putty to repair minor damage. However, because wood rot is difficult to eradicate without expert help, you may want a professional to do it. Do not attempt repairs in the area until you are certain that all the damaged wood and signs of wood rot are gone.

If you have wood decking, there are several common deck problems that you might encounter. For example, your natural wood boards may fade over time due to things like sunlight, weather, and debris. On top of that, some types of wood decking can rot, grow mold, and attract destructive pests—including termites, carpenter ants, and woodpeckers.

Regular inspections, cleaning, and sealing wood components prevent premature wear and structural damage.
