"This is the second time True Decks has done repair/maintenance/refurbish work on our deck. The work is consistently done well and is reasonably priced. The techs (Eduardo and Luis) who completed our recent work (4/15/26) were OUTSTANDING. They were professional, courteous and efficient and the final work product exceeded our expectations. WELL DONE...thank you!"

"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."

"Great team who really worked hard to "upgrade" our tired looking deck! The deck is very large and 20 years old...its been brought back to life! We love it. Thanks to Mr Davis, Carlos and his team for an excellent job."

"Thomas and Antonio were very accommodating and efficient with the work they performed on our house. They repainted our front porch, pressure washed the siding and deck, repaired loose panels around the deck, and repaired/painted the railing to the basement. The quality of the work was high and they were able to answer all of our questions along the way. Would definitely hire again."

"I have a ten year old deck and Nikola from Seal Strong did a good job cleaning and staining it. He was very conscientious and detailed in his work and the price was excellent. I would definitely hire Seal Strong again."

"Kris was very responsive initially - following up with texts and emails. As time passed and weather impacted projects and his schedule, we had to reach out to him to check on the status of our deck project. He communicated rather late in the day that he could not make it to the home on the planned date. Overall, the work was completed and he was knowledgeable but there was some lack of communication between him and his workers - creating a need for us as customers to follow up to ensure everything was completed. Unfortunately the crew did not cover below our deck and we've come to realize stain leaked on to our ac unit, patio and children's toys under the deck and several screws were left in our potted plants. We are happy with the deck itself but getting to the final project took much longer than was estimated when we signed the contract and we were not impressed by his customer service and communication."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

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.

Deck skirting shouldn’t touch the ground, especially if you have a wood deck, which is vulnerable to moisture. Ideally, you should leave at least 3/4 of an inch of space between the deck skirting and the ground for more ventilation. Pros also recommend that you incorporate about 1 square foot of space for ventilation for the underside of the deck to every 150 square feet of decking. Proper ventilation prevents mold growth and rot that can damage your deck.

PVC decking might be long-lasting, but this synthetic material lacks​​ the natural aesthetic or sustainability of wood decking. If you want to match your decking to your new garden furniture or just freshen up the faded surface, it’s not usually possible to paint PVC decking. When comparing PVC to composite decking, PVC is pricier and more prone to warping in hot regions.

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.

To prepare a deck for a hot tub, start by thinking about safe and easy access in and out of the tub. Homeowners should plan for steps or consider built-in seating, a level surface around the perimeter, and a clear, slip-resistant path from the house. A hot tub requires sufficient space around it for comfortable entry and exit, ensuring no awkward squeezing or stepping over high edges. Good lighting and handrails can also make a big difference, especially for nighttime use.
