"Troy did an amazing job! We had him do a deck repair for us last year that was done very professionally so this year we had him do some deck repairs at our son's house. Again, more amazing solid work! This year, we've had him do some shed repairs, fix a few door issues, replace some hinges, some bathroom remodeling and some general handyman repairs around our house and we are completely satisfied with the work. We highly recommend Troy!!"

"We hired American Deck and Carpentry to redo our front, covered porch. The existing porch was wood decking and they replaced everything with composite. Wade and his team did an exceptional job. The porch looks wonderful and they paid attention to all the details and did a great job all around, including post-job cleanup! I highly recommend them."

"Travis and Chris were a delightful team, arriving on time, staying with the job, and completing work as promised.  Even though I was at work during most of the job, Travis communicated routinely on email regarding status of the job. Also, Travis and Chris were careful not to recoat the deck during two days when rain threatened, and it did rain. I was surprised on how much sanding and prep work was accomplished before they applied the stain, but every home handyman knows 60-80 percent of the time associated with any repair or maintenance is in the preparation.  Three coats of stain were applied and work was completed on a Saturday, as Travis wanted to take advantage of good weather before the threat of rain came back into the forecast.  In addition deck re-coating, Travis repaired several spots on the underneath patio at minimal cost.  The price of the job was extremely fair - 50% paid before the work started and the balance after completion.  We would not hesitate to call on Graham Restoration for future work.

"

Chris and Cody did an amazing job, they where prompt, professional, and efficient. They made solid recommendation that when implemented were real value added to the job. I would recommend them and use them again not just for the amazing work but for the knowledge and advice they bring that makes all the difference.

Our deck was looking worse for wear after moving into a short sale home that had been mistreated. We found Chris on Angie’s list and contacted him. He got right back to me and schedules an appraisal, we immediately gave him the job after meeting him. Power washed the house and deck, then sealed the deck as well as did repair and maintenance work on the exterior foundation. The work was extremely well done and efficient. The guys were a pleasure to work with and prices were competitive.

"Project: Mulitple Small jobs. Mr. Sword is an absolute professional. Knowledgeable, service oriented, polite, professional, and trustworthy. He installed garbage disposal and fixed loose gutters found during a house inspection. Then, he removed wallpaper from 3 bath rooms and suggested he paint. And, I am so glad that he made this recommendation. I could not have removed and replace the fixtures and mirrors to paint. This how a professional works. I highly recommend Mr Sword and will use him again."

"Dale was very responsive to my request for an estimate. he gave it right away, and it was a fair price. He power washed my deck and staircase and stained it. It looks great, and he was very professional and pleasant to work with. He is new to the area, and needs to get the word out. I would highly recommend him."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

It is definitely worth sanding a deck to ensure the wood absorbs new stain. Sanding a deck removes the outer layers of aging wood, allowing the stain to penetrate. It also gives a fresh look to the entire surface as part of the deck refinishing process. Without sanding, your stain or sealant is less likely to absorb into the wood. While sanding a deck is a time-intensive project, the rewards are noticeable and long-lasting.

When installing deck boards, screws are generally a better option than nails. Screws offer superior holding strength over time, keeping the boards securely in place. In contrast, nails are more likely to pop out, which can create a tripping hazard. While you can use either, we recommend using 3-inch galvanized deck screws. To minimize the risk of cracking the wood, it's a good practice to drill small pilot holes before driving the screws into the deck joists.

Whether composite decking is better than wood depends on your priorities, especially regarding budget and maintenance. Composite decking offers superior longevity (30 to 50 years) and durability, and it is low-maintenance, requiring no sanding, staining, or sealing. In contrast, wood decks typically last 10 to 30 years and need refinishing every few years. While the upfront cost of composite is higher than wood, the reduced maintenance can lead to long-term savings. If a lower initial cost is the primary factor, wood is the more affordable choice.

Yes, you can draw your own deck plans in many cases. However, you must know your local building codes and be familiar with carpentry principles. Even then, it's always best to run your plans by a professional contractor with experience building decks, whether you choose to DIY some of the build or not.

Typically, most residential wooden decks are designed to support approximately 40 pounds per square foot, including the deck’s weight and any items placed on it. While this is fine for typical use, it is usually not enough to hold the weight of a hot tub filled with water and people. To safely support a hot tub, your wood deck will likely require reinforcement. Therefore, it’s best to have a contractor or a structural engineer assess it before hot tub installation.
