"Job: I have a huge, 3 level deck with seating, flower boxes, stairs, plenty of railing and a trellis. I needed several boards replaced and the whole deck stained. Seal Strong worked well with me in making sure that everything looked exaclty how I liked it. I am very picky and overall they did a very nice job staining and repairing my deck. They were professional and courteous. I would hire them again and recommend them to others. I am hopeful the pre-treatment will extend the stain and outlive the warranty. They will come back to restain, maintenance for a nominal fee."

"He did a great job.  The most difficult problem was getting water away from the foundation of the house under our deck.  He rigged up a system that does the job without creating a rut where the water drains.  We were very happy with his work."

"Wes did a great job fixing my deck boards and power washing the deck. He did leave a bunch of the scrape wood around and I had to go back and forth with him to get him to pick up the junk. My big problem came when I attempted to get him to come back to stain the deck. I wanted to use a specific sealant and did the research and sent it to him because it was more then what I think he quoted. I was expecting him to read over the instructions and give me a price. Instead he tells me to go to a different store and buy something else. I had some other work for him anyway so suggested that he come over to quote the new work. We make plans for 8:30ish Saturday morning. Well, 8:30 comes and goes. About 9:05 I get a call from Wes saying that he's been up since 8:30 but hasn't left yet. No apology for being late, just an explanation that he was worn out from the day before. He says he can come right away and I know he lives about 10 minutes away so I say sure. Well, 35 minutes later, still no Wes. So I call and cancel. Wes does good work at fair prices but like so many handymen, he is hard to give work to."

"Shane, Bob and their crew were great to work with. They came on time and worked long days in the dead heat of summer. We had a couple hiccups along the way tied to HOA guidelines, but Shane went the extra mile to ensure we were completely satisfied. The top of the fence floats with the landscape and looks great. At the end of the build he walked us all around the fence and talked through maintenance and upkeep. Very personable and great fence results!"

"Excellent work! At least 1/3 of my roof on the north side had a great deal of moss on it. On much of the rest of the roof there were small amounts of moss along the bottom edge of shingles, and there were patches in scattered places on the main part of the shingles. After Hector and his son cleaned the roof, it looked brand new. They removed plants and furniture from our deck before the job and replaced them after the job. They even did a light washing of the vinyl siding of the house, which was outside the agreed-upon scope of work, but they did not charge me for it. As a former member of a site safety office in a then-Fortune 50 company, I was particularly impressed with the excellent precautions they took to insure their safety on the roof during the job. Hector’s 27+ years of experience was evident in every aspect of the job. I plan to bring him back in a year for annual maintenance. I definitely recommend No More Dirty Roofs to any home owner needing roof cleaning."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

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.

The best way to sand a deck is by cleaning it, sanding the boards and stairs with 60- or 80-grit sandpaper, and sanding the railings and posts with 80-grit sandpaper. You should sand in the direction of the wood grain to avoid damaging the timber. When sanding your deck, use medium pressure and aim for an even sand. Pressing too hard with a sander can damage decks, as most are softwoods.

Wood decks need to be replaced every 10 to 15 years on average. Natural wood is highly vulnerable to infiltration and damage from moisture, which can occur rapidly due to exposure to outdoor elements. You can protect your deck and maximize its lifespan by sealing it every year or two.

Local building codes don’t specify the number of steps a deck can have before a railing is required, mainly because stair height varies widely. Most areas require decks 30 inches or higher to have a railing. While not exact, that roughly equates to four to seven steps.

Yes, adding railing to a deck is a great way to improve safety and your home’s aesthetic appeal. Railings can be constructed from wood, metal, or composite, and there are plenty of choices regarding design and style. Always consult local building codes before starting any building project—there are often requirements regarding spacing and height that can differ slightly from place to place.
