"We appreciated the advice Alex gave us to replacing an old wooden deck with a beautiful flagstone patio area and walkway. His crew were very professional, organized, polite and did a really great job. They also installed new sod in backyard and part of front yard. They did a fantastic job, were very professional, organized, polite and worked exceedingly hard to get the work done in just a few days! I would highly recommend The Home Group Lawn to anyone......in fact we decided to turn our. lawn care and future landscaping over to them. Exceeded expectations in all aspects."

"Mr. Innocent Dube was here ahead of time and ready to go. His service was more than I expected. My home is 40 years old and the dirt, stains, mold, and mildew on my porch, pool deck, and patios were really depressing me. But today! WHAT A LIFT TO MY HOME! What a wonderful experience it was watching the outside of my house be renewed by Mr. Innocents power washing expert service. His service was more than I expected. Needless to say, I am no longer depressed!"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

While eco-friendly decking, also called composite decking, is a win for the environment because it consists of recycled materials, it has trade-offs. These sustainable options often come with steeper price tags, lack natural wood's warm look, and can become uncomfortably hot under full sun. Some composite materials can also become slick when wet, posing a potential hazard.

What goes under your floating deck depends on your preferences. Some homeowners put landscaping fabric underneath their decks to prevent weeds from popping up through the boards. Others choose to build a floating deck over grass or gravel. However, it’s best not to set your deck directly on the ground. Instead, set your deck on blocks to keep it elevated enough to prevent moisture from rotting the wood.

A deck doesn’t have to be perfectly level. Many pros even recommend a gentle slope to ensure proper drainage and increase longevity. The ideal gentle slope is about 1/8 to 1/4 inch per foot away from the property, leading water away from the home to prevent pooling and reduce the risk of damage. It also minimizes rot, mold, and other moisture-related problems. 

The proper height for a stair riser or deck step is between four and seven inches, with seven inches often considered the most comfortable. Building your stairs to this height ensures a strain-free step position and minimizes the risk of trip and fall injuries. For optimal safety and comfort, especially on deck stairs, a rise of around seven inches should be paired with a tread depth (or run) of at least 10 to 12 inches. While it is possible to design stairs with risers up to 12 inches, this height can be challenging for children, pets, or individuals with mobility issues. Always check with your local building codes, as they may mandate specific dimensions that differ from these general recommendations.

Pressure-treated wood contains preservatives that give the material internal protection from rot and pests. Untreated lumber won’t last more than a few years unless you choose a more expensive wood, like cedar, that naturally stands up well to moisture. Composite decking can outlast wood but is more expensive and doesn’t look as natural. Keep in mind that you’ll need to seal any exterior wood product to protect it from the elements and other forms of external damage.
