"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.

"All work done professionally and in a timely manner. Project started with a thorough powerwashing of existing deck, rails, supports. Badly warped and/or splintered decking and rail top replaced with new, pressure-treated lumber. Old wood power-sanded then hand- painted with clear stain finish. Attention to detail was excellent; perfection is the standard of this company."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Before installing any materials under the deck for removing moisture, you should perform some prep work on the ground. Work the dirt under the deck to create a grade away from the home. A grade of at least six inches for every 10 feet works well. Do not leave a gap between the dirt and the home’s foundation where water could pool. Once you or a contractor regrades the dirt under the deck, you then can add materials over the top.

The overhang, or nosing, of deck steps is another area that will be covered in building code requirements. The noses on your deck steps should have a minimum overhang of ¾ inch. For safety, usability, and code compliance, the nosing of deck steps should not extend past 1¼ inches.

Yes, deck pier blocks can be used as an alternative to traditional deck footings, especially for smaller or low-to-the-ground decks. Unlike poured concrete and buried post footings, deck blocks do not require digging or pouring. However, their use is dependent on local building codes. Some areas, particularly those prone to high winds, earthquakes, or hurricanes, may not permit the use of deck pier blocks. It is essential to consult your local building codes before choosing them for your deck project.

The best direction for a gate to swing depends on its location and purpose, but swinging inward is the general rule. An inward swing is often considered safer, prevents the gate from opening into public spaces like a sidewalk, and may be required by local building codes.

There are exceptions and specific considerations. If your property is on a slope, an inward swing might not be possible. For a deck gate, it's safest to have it swing away from any steps. In a backyard, the direction can be a matter of preference, though an inward swing can be helpful when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.

Regardless of direction, ensure the gate can open fully without hitting any objects or blocking spaces. While an inward swing is standard, a gate that can swing both in and out offers the most flexibility if your setup allows for it.

Before installing a deck, you must build a base for the deck to rest upon, often made of compacted soil or gravel. While gravel is an optional material, it helps with drainage. Some contractors also recommend installing a weed control membrane, which helps provide a solid foundation for the frame. In the case of an elevated deck, a pro will often lay down a concrete slab as a foundation.
