"Two level deck needed minor surface rot repair, power washing, and staining. Flores Enterprises LLC quoted and completed the work in the same business week. Attention to detail on staining is excellent. Provided photos of repairs and completed work and kept me informed on any issues which arose. Would definitely hire again."

"Very well. Work was scheduled over several days to meet our complex schedule and was completed according to the schedule. Painting crew was very professional and did excellent work. Owner of GS Custom Remodelers visited each morning, was always available for consultation, and inspected and approved all work. On several occasions he directed the crew to retouch areas I had not noticed. His prices were not inexpensive, but he was worth every penny we paid and then some. I recommend him highly, have used him on more than one job, and will use him again."

"MC Fence & Deck built my dream deck, and I’m obsessed! Hunter walked me through the design, and his ideas made it way better than my original plan. John and his crew handled everything. Build and add an aluminum fence around the yard. They were professional and on time, and the craftsmanship is top-notch. Now my whole backyard looks like a magazine spread. I highly recommend these guys for decks and fencing. They’re the best in the business!"

"Ronnie was great. He took the time to explain to me in detail everything that he was going to do before the job and afterwards he went over how everything went.

The fact that he showed me before and after pictures of his work blew me away! Since most of the work he did was on my roof, I would never be able to see the results otherwise.
I will definitely hire Ronnie again for any roof or deck work I need in the future. He takes pride in his work and it shows.

"Dave Garrett is very high energy and obviously passionate about what he does.   Spent an afternoon with him planning out the look and the types of plants where is his knowledge was very helpful in meeting our goal of "very low maintenance".   His team arrived on time on Friday, worked until late evening (on a particularly hot day) and would have completed the install if they had not run out of the stone.   They came back on Monday to complete the job..
It took a bit longer to get the large (20+ ft) Ash tree installed and we did have to call to check on the status of it arriving but part of the delay was ensuring the tree was properly prepped (water treatment).   The second tree was actually a small Willow that Dave "donated" from his own yard which was appreciated.
Overall we were very pleased and when it comes time to expand our deck (he does that type of work as well) we will definitely use him again.

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Both aluminum and composite decking materials are environmentally friendly, with aluminum decking coming in as the most eco-friendly option. 

Though composite decking helps remove plastics from landfills, recycles wood, and lasts longer than traditional wood decks, it’s not recyclable and only lasts for 25 to 30 years on average. Aluminum can last well over 30 years and is almost always recyclable.

Yes, Ipe wood is a popular high-end choice for pool decking. It repels water and is naturally slip-resistant. It's not susceptible to mold, mildew, or rot, either, so it lasts longer and is cleaner and more hygienic than other popular decking materials. However, remember that due to its status, it is a very high-cost wood, and you might find that an alternative would serve you just as well for significantly less.

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. 

In most cases, sanding an old deck before staining it is necessary to achieve a decent finish. If your old deck has a relatively new stain finish on it and you're only doing touch-ups, you can generally skip the sanding part. However, if your goal is to make the deck look and function better, sanding first is a must. 

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.
