"Mark and his team were wonderful to work with, timely and responsive. A year after they finished my house painting and deck staining, some stain had worn off my steps. Despite being past the standard Warenttee, Mark arranged to have the area touched up and even bought me the stain!"

"My results were kind of disappointing. I have a seven year old cedar fence that had never been stained before and it was starting to show its age and was gray and moldy in places. From researching the water-based stains, it looked like a water-based stain would last longer than an oil-based stain, so I picked the Behr fence and deck stain (in chocolate brown). The day before the stain was applied, a guy came by and pressure-cleaned and washed my fence. I got home right after he had left but there was dirt and mud all along the very bottom of the fence (on the 2" x 6" boards), so I had to get my water hose and rinse all of that dirt off, otherwise the paint would not stick to the dirt. The next day he applied the paint (no complaints there) but since then, the paint has been flaking off here and there. If I bump the fence with my rake handle or where squirrels are climbing up the fence or just anywhere you touch the fence, the paint flakes off. I talked to a guy in the Home Depot paint dept. and he said that I really should have lightly sanded the fence before applying the stain because he said the wood fibers stand up over time and if you don’t sand them off first, the paint doesn’t stick as well as it should but he admitted that very few people are going to sand the fence. He also thought that turning up the pressure washer to a higher setting might remove the wood fibers, where the paint would stick better. Anyway, I don't think the pressure cleaning and washing was done correctly. I know that for sure because there was dirt all along the bottom of the fence that should have been rinsed off but wasn't. I don't think the pressure washer was turned up high enough but I have no way of proving that."

"Francisco did a wonderful job for our client. He had a bit of an issue with the equipment he was using but worked diligently until he worked it out and still finished the job. We hired them to stain a patio fence and backyard fence. We discussed what the process would be, how much it would be, and when it would be completed. He complied with everything just as we spoke of."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Increases livable area and enhances aesthetic, often boosting property appeal.

Ideally, a gate should be able to swing both in and out. However, if it can only open in one direction, it is generally best for it to swing inward. This is often the safest option, especially for deck gates near steps, as you'll want the gate to swing away from the stairs. An inward swing also prevents the gate from opening into a public space, like a sidewalk, and can be more convenient when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.

There are exceptions, however. The layout of your property may require a different approach. For example, if your property is on a slope, the gate may not be able to swing inward. You should also ensure the gate can open fully without colliding with any objects or blocking access to other areas. For a backyard garden gate where public access isn't a concern, the direction it swings is largely a matter of personal preference. Finally, always check your local building codes, as they may have specific requirements for which way a gate must swing.

Building a deck without a permit could lead to fines for both the homeowner and the contractor. The exact penalties will depend on your state and municipal building laws. You might also be required to remove the deck and apply for a permit before you can build another. While it might be tempting to skip the permit to save a few bucks, it’ll cost you much more if you’re caught.

In most cases, your deck will need some form of deck footing to hold it in place, preventing moisture from rotting your wood and decreasing your deck’s lifespan. Concrete deck blocks are the most common type of footing for floating decks. Some homeowners use ground-level deck footings. For added security, consider digging and laying your ground-level footings below ground.

While you can use various materials like sand or even just soil, gravel is widely considered the best option to put under a deck. It provides excellent drainage and is resistant to water, fire, and pests. Gravel also helps anchor the soil to prevent erosion during heavy rain and acts as a built-in weed blocker, reducing regular upkeep. Furthermore, it is simple to spread, available in various textures and tones, and adds a polished look that complements any deck design.
