"We recently had our deck done and they referred us to Dexpert to have it stained. Our deck was stained today and it looks absolutely beautiful. It was stained by Joshua and he did a great job on behalf of Dexpert. Our deck is only 250sq ft but we were very pleased with the cost for the job."

"Arrived on time, surveyed the roof, and went to work finding a small leak that allowed some water to enter the house. First try, found a small leak and repaired it, including putting on a new boot on an outside pipe vent. I still had problems with some leaking. Second try, looked all over the roof to find a leak, finally found a hole that was mis-nailed and allowed water on the wood underneath. Fixed it including repair of the wood decking and putting roof back in order. Pleasant experience and seemingly professional. "
The company provided a quick and fair quotation using photos and measurements that I provided of the deck along with a description of the services I was requiring. Upon my acceptance of the quote, the work was scheduled that week.
When the technician arrived, he assessed that due to the previous staining job being performed on wet pressure treated wood that we would need to use a different type of stain product than was originally quoted. The difference in price was ~$50 and we mutually agreed to the change in scope.
The technician performed the cleaning on the first day. The cleaning consisted of a blower to remove any large debris and a pressure wash with a cleaning solution.
The staining occurred on day two and was applied with a gas-powered sprayer. We had chosen a Sherman Williams Solid Color Traditional Russet Superdeck Stain. As Good As New offered a 3 year warranty for this product.
Upon completion, the technician and I walked the job and looked for missed spots. We found none. He then gave detailed instructions on how to care for the new stain and told me to call if we had any issues during the warranty period.
Overall a very positive experience with As Good As New.

There are several methods for attaching stair stringers to a deck. The best way is to bolt the stringers to the deck joists using three carriage bolts in a triangular pattern. This method offers the sturdiest fit for stairs that won’t budge. Alternatively, attach the stringers to the deck rims using lag bolts or to the posts using adjustable slope hangers.
When sourced responsibly, the most sustainable wood decking options are timber trees like redwood, pine, Douglas fir, Nootka cypress, and Western red cedar. These tree species are fast-growing with low carbon emissions. Plus, most timber woods make durable deck materials because of their resistance to rot and decay over time.
You can use a few different tactics to prevent your deck gate from sagging. Aside from using strong, rot-resistant woods, introducing a diagonal element—such as a tension rod or solid piece of wood to act as a brace—across the gate will offer better support. You can also use rigid joists to prevent the gate from sagging.
Decks are generally more expensive to build because they require elevating and railings. The difference between decks and patios is that decks are elevated, while patios are usually on the ground level. Plus, decks are usually made of wood and need more maintenance than most patios. However, decks and patios serve the same purpose, providing outdoor space for you to enjoy.
Yes, deck pier blocks can be used as an alternative to traditional deck footings, particularly for small or low-to-the-ground decks. Unlike poured concrete and buried post footings, deck blocks don’t require digging or pouring. However, their use is regulated by local building codes, and they may not be permitted in areas prone to high winds, earthquakes, or hurricanes. Always consult your local building codes before choosing them for your deck project.
