"Very smoothly; it did go a bit longer than the original estimate but since they were to use what parts of the deck that were still in good shape while rebuilding we found more damaged wood than could be seen before the deck itself was disassembled."

"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!"

"I purchased a coupon for 3 hours of handyman services at a discount (additional time was paid at the regular hourly rate, which was comparable to or lower than the other services I received estimates from). Scheduling was easy - they were flexible on dates and had availability when we needed it (they were able to get someone out quicker than several others I called, which was important as we were preparing for a special event). The quality of the work was excellent. The handyman was very pleasant and professional. He arrived right on time and assessed the work to be done and came up with a shopping list. My one concern was the amount of time it took to shop for supplies - the Home Depot is 10-15 minutes from our house, but he was gone for close to 2 hours picking up the supplies - so the better part of the 3 hours we purchased in advance was consumed in shopping. I got worried that perhaps he was lost or having some difficulty so I called the office - they checked on him and indicated that he had to wait for a pallet of lattice to be brought in. It still seemed like a long time given that the shopping list was relatively small. The deck was a bigger job than I thought - he took time and care measuring, cutting and fitting the lattice to do the job correctly, which I appreciated. As a result of the extended shopping time and the size of the deck job, the work took substantially longer than anticipated, which meant it cost much more than expected. I recognize that this was partly due to the scope being larger than I thought, which I have no problem with - but the duration of the shopping trip honestly left me feeling like I did not get the full value of the coupon. In addition to the labor, I received an itemized receipt for the supplies. I had a couple of questions, which they quickly responded to. They removed the charge for an item that was purchased but not used. They were very professional and easy to work with. I would definitely recommend them and I would definitely use them again, although I would try to purchase supplies in advance if possible.

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

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.

When building an outdoor or deck gate, it's crucial to use durable wood that can withstand harsh weather conditions like sunlight, rain, wind, and snow. Redwood and cedar are excellent choices as they naturally resist decay. While redwood is considered more elegant, cedar is a more affordable option. Other suitable woods include oak and pressure-treated pine, which is specifically treated to resist rot. Although some softwoods like pine are popular, untreated softwoods such as pine and spruce should generally be avoided for outdoor projects because they are susceptible to damage from water, rot, and the sun. Ultimately, it's wise to consider your local climate when selecting the right wood for your gate.

Covering your deck with a breathable tarp can protect it from snow, ice, and cold winter temperatures. This is a good winterizing solution if you don’t plan to use your deck at all during the colder months. However, it might be best to skip the tarp if you’ll still be walking on your deck or using it in a limited capacity.

Your deck may pop, and your neighbor’s deck may not for a number of reasons. Whether or not a deck pops will depend on how it was made, the conditions it’s exposed to, and the materials. Improper spacing is a common reason for increased pressure between deck boards. Moisture penetration is another.

To maximize the utility of space under a deck, it’s important to keep this area dry and clean. One way to prevent the area from becoming too wet is to install an under-deck draining system. This affordable home upgrade channels water away from the deck and provides usable space for storage or a functional area below a second-story deck. Not only will this be a useful maintenance upgrade, it can boost your home’s property value.
