Customers say: Quality work

"We HIGHLY recommend Safe Space Construction-- Steve Abbott and his team! We bid out a large, 2-story deck project. Unfortunately, we did not select Safe Space Construction. The contractor that we selected â almostâ finished the job before they disappeared. We had invested a considerable amount in decks that were not properly finished, did not meet code, looked terrible, and were unsafe. I contacted Steve Abbott/Safe Space Construction and asked for help. Steve and his team took on the mess that the prior contractor left behind. They corrected the structural issues (literally taking up much/most of the decking that had been installed, fixing the structure, and reinstalling the decking) and the finishing issues, enhancing the overall look and usability of the deck. They gave us a stunning, functional, safe deck that we can enjoy for many years to come. Steveâ s team does exceptional work. They are reliable and focused on quality workmanship and materials. The pergola that Steve added improved the upper deck so much! We are happy to recommend Safe Space Construction for your next project. We are so thankful that they worked on ours."

"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."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

A deck that isn’t attached to a house is called a floating or freestanding deck. These standalone decks are built near ground level, so they usually don’t need deck stairs. Some don’t even require permits. Generally speaking, building a floating deck is faster and more DIY-friendly than constructing one that’s connected to your home.

Yes. Freestanding or floating decks are exactly what the name implies—structures with their own support beams. You can build a deck yourself and place it next to a house for the illusion of a connected deck without the hassle. Or you can construct it in a separate part of your yard for a dedicated outdoor entertainment space. For the purpose of removing a freestanding deck, the steps are the same as an attached deck, but you don’t have to cut the deck away from the home.

In general, you need a footing at each corner of your deck, and within 8 feet of each other. So, how many you need depends on the size and shape of your deck, plus any local building codes. It also depends on factors like the load capacity of your soil and the weight of your deck. You can find a footing calculator online or contact a pro for support.

Both composite and PVC decking are excellent alternatives to wood. However, while composite is moderately priced and lasts around 30 years, PVC costs more and lasts longer. PVC is also more durable, though both materials are more durable than wood decking. Ultimately, the choice between composite and PVC decking will come down to your budget and preferences.

If you have wood decking, there are several common deck problems that you might encounter. For example, your natural wood boards may fade over time due to things like sunlight, weather, and debris. On top of that, some types of wood decking can rot, grow mold, and attract destructive pests—including termites, carpenter ants, and woodpeckers.
