"Mike Griffen has vast experience and integrity. The initial bid was for the wood planking replacement for a small deck and a fence repair. After demolition of the upper planks, the support under structure was found to be rotten also. He immediately gave me another estimate for structural work and replacement. Now my deck is level, secure, and built with quality materials. I would recommend Mike and his team for any of your building needs. Gordon L Walling DDS"

"They completed the 50 foot fence replacement quickly and correctly. They responded to all correspondence. Scheduling was a breeze. The only hiccup in the work was they had trouble getting the spray stain right which was obvious. There was a little resistance to fixing that but re-stained the fence once I mixed the right color for them. I highly recommend them based upon my years of remodeling and difficulty in finding good contractors."

"Hector did an AMAZING job. He was very prompt, knowledgeable and respectful. He finished the job (Caulking the outside windows, repairing a whole in phrase ceiling and door) so fast that I ended up adding additional work (raised 2 lights for me). I would definitely hire this company again."

Customers say: Quality work

"We had a wonderful experience working with Steve and Cassie! We had a tricky build --squeezing a multi-level deck between two old trees, existing landscaping, two pergolas and still finding a way to include my wish list of seating, privacy, and a big stock tank pool in the center. Steve saw my vision and made it come to life. There was a solid plan in place, but they were also flexible. I highly recommend and would certainly use them again!!"

"Cory did a great job on repairing a section of my pool deck that was damaged as well as pointing out items that I had not seen myself. He is very conscientious and a good communicator. His quotes for the repair were reasonably priced. I will consider him for other projects as they come up."

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

In most cases, sanding an old deck before staining it is necessary to achieve a decent finish. If your old deck has a relatively new stain finish on it and you're only doing touch-ups, you can generally skip the sanding part. However, if your goal is to make the deck look and function better, sanding first is a must. 

Typically, most residential wooden decks are designed to support approximately 40 pounds per square foot, including the deck’s weight and any items placed on it. While this is fine for typical use, it is usually not enough to hold the weight of a hot tub filled with water and people. To safely support a hot tub, your wood deck will likely require reinforcement. Therefore, it’s best to have a contractor or a structural engineer assess it before hot tub installation.

It’s important to make sure the wood on a new deck is properly seasoned. Seasoning a deck is simple: Once you build it (or have a pro do so), just leave it alone so it can acclimate to the environment. If you don’t give the deck proper seasoning time before staining, the stain can lock in any lingering moisture and cause mold, rot, and other moisture issues down the road. Give the wood at least four to eight weeks to season before you stain.

As with patios, there are many types of deck choices to choose from to add personalization to your home. Some common deck options include:

  • Attached decks are anchored to the home and include simple ground-level options or multi-level structures with stairways and separate landings. 

  • Detached island decks are not attached to the home; they’re a freestanding structure in the yard. 

  • Wraparound decks connect the back of the house with at least one other side and often are built with railings for safety. 

  • Multi-level decks connect your deck through varying levels of elevation, featuring landings that are attached to stairs.

The proper and most comfortable height for a deck stair riser, also called a step, is between four and seven inches. A height of seven inches is often considered ideal for a strain-free step that minimizes the risk of trips and falls. While it is possible to have risers up to 12 inches, this height can be challenging for children, pets, or individuals with mobility issues. For optimal safety and comfort, pair a seven-inch riser with a tread depth (or run) of at least 10 to 12 inches. Always check your local building codes, as they may have specific requirements that differ from these general recommendations.
