"Anyone who knows me knows I am not easily impressed because I have such high expectations. However this company exceeded even my expectations day in and day out! I have had many home improvement projects done in my life. Bathrooms, kitchens, fences, roofs and decks and I have never been happier with the services and results as I have been with Sione (Jay Concrete & Construction) and the driveway they did for me. IT IS BEAUTIFUL! Sione and his crew were here working everyday exactly when they said they would be. They were polite friendly and professional. Even my neighbors commented on their professional and safety conscious ways. Every step of the way, I was consulted and listened too by everyone on the crew. Each night the messes made were cleaned and made ready for the next days work. My project had a completion due day of May 1. It was completed by April 26. AMAZING! They were so great at the job and done early!!! I will work with them again on future projects and recommend them to anyone needing beautiful concrete work done."

"Durrant was very conscientious and quickly took on the job. He invested 50% more time than he bid to complete the work. His equipment was challenged by the scope of the job, but he persevered to get the best result. The pergola was added later."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Before installing any materials under the deck for removing moisture, you should perform some prep work on the ground. Work the dirt under the deck to create a grade away from the home. A grade of at least six inches for every 10 feet works well. Do not leave a gap between the dirt and the home’s foundation where water could pool. Once you or a contractor regrades the dirt under the deck, you then can add materials over the top.

Cutting the boards directly is one of the fastest ways to remove deck boards with hidden fasteners. Mark two parallel lines that are one-third of the total measurement on both ends and cut out the centerpiece. Then, remove the end of the board that doesn’t have a fastener. Finally, pry open the fastened side and pull it up to pop out the screw or access the fastener. This also allows you to salvage portions of boards for other projects.

Yes, you can build a deck around a fire pit, as long as it is safely enclosed, meets code requirements, and is at least 15 feet away from your home. You’ll want to ensure you have a heat-resistant barrier between the fire pit and your deck to prevent any structural damage and fires. A galvanized ring surrounded by pavers, brick, or stone makes for a beautiful, safe, and sturdy design.

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.

In most cases, there should be a small gap between the house and the deck, usually no more than ½ to ¾ of an inch. This space allows water and moisture to flow through instead of pooling against the side of your house. It also lets flashing protect your siding from runoff, which is one of the most common issues with decks.
