"These people are true professionals. They are efficient and courteous. They power washed our large driveway, patio and walkways. They soft washed our deck and atrium. The value for all this work was reasonable- an excellent value."

"I originally wanted to stain the deck, but they offered to extend the deck, fix a rotted fence post, replace a couple of cracked fence slats, and stain the fence. The warranty offered, services performed, and personal references they suggested for other types of work makes Lara Fence and Stain a formidable business partner."

"I absolutely recommend Quality Lawn & Handyman Services. Anthony Villafuerte is the best contractor I have ever worked with. He reponded almost immediately to my post. made an appointment for the next day and was very prompt. His bid was very reasonable and lower than some others I'd received. He brought all the materials and equipment to complete the work. He restored and set new posts for my wind damaged fence and made some recommendations for changes that makes the fence more likely to withstand strong winds. He also fixed a sagging gate and installed new hardware and built a replacement door for a shed. His work was excellent and in many ways above and beyond my expectations with the care he took in working around my yard and his attention to detail. I will definitely be calling him again for more Handyman jobs."

"Eric did a great job with our deck. I had reached out initially after coming up with some rudimentary design constraints to overhaul an old trampoline pad. Eric helped our design come to life! He built the hot tub pad, and after the tub was delivered, he built a deck around it with some nice benches and a spot for my cold soak. After we got it all in, we came back with a few revisions and the significant expansion, which Eric's and his team knocked out. Eric was very hands-on in is approach , he kept the job site clean and communicated well. The tolerances are very tight and the work looks top notch!"

"This company is fabulous!!!! He turned our beyond bad lawn into a showpiece!! The original yard was poorly designed and installed which killed the sod. They cleaned all that out, brought in new good soil and leveled it all out for proper layout and drainage. He had beautiful fresh sod delivered and they meticulously laid it out to make sure it was level and even. Afterwards he took his time explaining how to properly maintain/water from that point to at least a month out. Have to say, our yard is now a show piece!!! Highly recommend this company for any issues your lawn needs even installing sprinkler systems to designing and planting. If you want someone that is detailed oriented and treats your lawn as his own, then you will be in awe of Lovely Scapes!!!!"

Deck Maintenance FAQs, answered by experts

Cold temperatures can make your deck boards contract. If they don’t contract evenly, they can put pressure on the deck screws and cause them to pop out, making a noticeable sound. Winterizing your deck can help prevent this from happening.

Building a deck is often worth the investment, not only because it provides more utility to your yard and gives you more space to entertain but also because decks tend to add value to your home. Keep in mind that second-story decks often require concrete footings, which means they will bump up your property taxes, while decks built on the first story generally don’t require a permanent foundation and won’t affect your taxes. Even with the tax increase, decks are usually a good investment in the long run.

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.

Composite decking boards aren't your only options for building a deck. There are several other types of materials for decks, including wood and aluminum decking. Wood decking comes in many different wood species, offering natural beauty and classy timelessness to your yard. Aluminum is a lightweight, water-resistant, and low-maintenance material that is also non-slip.

Unless you’re using a 2-in-1 formula or painting over an existing coat of paint, it pays to apply a coat of primer ahead of your new paint. Decks see a lot of footfall and exposure to extreme and sudden temperature changes and moisture levels. The primer promotes better paint adhesion, moisture repellency, and a smoother finish, which means you’ll often need fewer coats of paint.
