"We had five quotes before deciding to go with "The Deck & Patio Company" and we are more than satisfied with our decision. This is a company that value both their customers and perfection. The entire experience from the beginning to the end has been nothing less than positive. As a company representative, Tom wasn't pushy at all. Rather, he was very knowledge and helpful with understanding of the scope of the project and presenting all options for how to make it better. He was very patient as well. We had to wait for our turn to build the deck (they were pretty booked), but the rest was a breeze. The building team was very professional, respectful, and punctual. Craftsman is excellent and the result exceeded our expectations. All Martin's suggestions were to the point and helped tremendously to make right decisions. He also did meticulous quality control at each step of the project. Trust me, no sloppiness is allowed by this company. Finally, the price was pretty reasonable compared to the high quality of the outcome. We consider it money well spend, and we are looking forward to keeping the relationships with this company for years in terms of our beautiful deck maintenance and possible future projects."

"Vic was the first to respond and show up to give me a price within my budget. He gave me a date and showed up ready to work. He worked diligently on both the front and back decks of my home. Quality was fantastic and he made sure the project was done right and cleaned up both days when he completed. A great blessing was when he installed a dog gate for me as well."

"We’re currently remodeling two bathrooms under the same contract. The first bathroom is complete, and the second one just started this week. While their bid wasn’t the lowest we received, it felt fair and, in hindsight, definitely worth it. The project manager was an excellent communicator—knowledgeable, easy to talk to, and never pressured us to accept the offer. We’re extremely pleased with the quality of work on the first bathroom and are confident the second will turn out just as well. A tip for future clients: make sure you have all the necessary materials on hand. We did, and the team completed the bathroom ahead of schedule. The space is narrow, so the photo angles don’t do it justice, but I hope they still give a sense of the high-quality work delivered."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

The best time to paint your deck is when temperatures are neither too cold (below 60 degrees) nor too hot (above 85 degrees). Always paint your deck when there’s no risk of rain. For fast-drying paint like acrylic or latex, ensure your deck can dry for at least four hours. Oil-based paints take longer to dry and may require 48 hours to completely cure.

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.

Always sand a deck before repainting so the wood is smooth and ready for paint. While you do not need to fully remove paint before repainting, sanding helps remove any areas with weather and sun damage. Sanding also helps remove chipped or flaking paint and opens the wood pores to improve paint adhesion.

Deck skirting shouldn’t touch the ground, especially if you have a wood deck, which is vulnerable to moisture. Ideally, you should leave at least 3/4 of an inch of space between the deck skirting and the ground for more ventilation. Pros also recommend that you incorporate about 1 square foot of space for ventilation for the underside of the deck to every 150 square feet of decking. Proper ventilation prevents mold growth and rot that can damage your deck.

A ground-level deck is a great idea for an outdoor space because it’s easy to access and doesn't require stairs or railings. You can install a ground-level deck near your home or farther away on your property. You can place a ground-level deck around a pool, fire pit, or near a view such as a lake, pond, or area of trees.
