"I cannot say enough about Deck Buddy. I hired them to replace our 1000 sq ft deck with Trex and to build a small extension. Not only were they one of the least expensive quotes I received, they did an excellent job. Inevitably, home improvement projects come with hiccups, which this project had a few of (some of them due to miscommunication on my part), but the staff and workers of Deck Buddy rolled with every issue and adjusted the plan or fixed an issue or misunderstanding as needed to perfection. Their customer service is impeccable. I would hire them again in a heartbeat, but I won't need to because my deck is superb and I won't change a thing for years."

"Clint did a fantastic job in resolving several items that arose during the inspection for the sale of our townhouse in Tysons Corner. Notably, he responded quickly to the initial request and then worked with our schedule to address the items dealing with the exterior deck, replacement of GFCIs and springs on the door leading to the garage. Can now move forward with confidence for the home closing. It was a pleasure meeting with him one-to-one as well as over the phone and by text. Absolutely professional throughout. Focused on doing an excellent job at a very fair and reasonable price. A definite "go to" professional. Highly recommended!!"

"this was a job to address paint touch-ups and corner posts that had rot at the bottoms on a cedar sided house. efficient, thoughtful, disciplined approach to the proposal. all appointments were kept and punctual. detailed quote provided and all questions answered. was pleased with the time they took for me to understand how and why they quoted the way they did. when the work started, we did a walkthrough and confirmed everything. towards the end, another walkthrough to confirm that they executed the plan to our satisfaction. several small, fair, change orders for some conditions that could not be seen during original quote. on comparison of their proposal quote to others and research on how they wanted to address repairs, it was well supported as the best approach. other's had quoted complete repainting for siding in good condition. they were able to easily color match and focus on repairs to the few areas that needed attention. very happy with the work."

"Our deck looks like a brand new deck. He does exceptional work and there were no hidden costs. For materials he had to purchase, he made sure to share receipts with me and was honest about the whole job. He was precise and explained the process as he went along. He was reliable and dependable. He has a good work ethic and I could tell that he wanted to do a good job."

"MC Fence & Deck did an amazing job on our new vinyl fence! We wanted something low maintenance but stylish, and they delivered exactly what we asked for. John was super helpful from the start, walking us through our options and giving honest recommendations. The crew worked fast and left the yard clean when they finished. We highly recommend them if you need a fence. Great service and fair pricing!"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

No, you don't need to stain Ipe decking, although you can if you want to change the color. You will, however, need to apply a UV coating if you don't want the natural color to fade. Speak to a deck staining specialist near you to discuss the best options if you want to stain your decking. And remember that you’ll need to seal your Ipe wood deck annually to protect it from scratches and Mother Nature.

Choosing whether your deck should be lighter or darker than your house is a matter of personal preference, as there is no right or wrong answer. However, considering the pros and cons of each can help guide your decision. Darker colors are often chosen because they show less dirt, footprints, and marks from daily wear, making them easier to keep clean. On the other hand, lighter deck colors tend to stay cooler in the summer. From a design perspective, using a deck color that contrasts with your home's exterior can help make the deck a more defined and distinct feature. Consulting color theory can also make the process of choosing a complementary house and deck color combination easier.

Yes, it is possible to add an under-deck drainage system to an existing deck by retrofitting it to the structure. This process may require some prep work. For example, many drainage systems are installed on top of the deck joists, which would require you to remove the decking boards and railings first. To avoid this, you could opt for a below-the-joist drainage system. For best results and to ensure proper installation, it is recommended to consult a professional. A pro can inspect your deck, make any necessary repairs, and then install the drainage system correctly.

The life expectancy of deck boards varies widely based on the material, climate, and maintenance. Untreated wood boards typically last 10 to 30 years with proper care, while pressure-treated boards can last up to 50 years. Hardwoods generally outlast softwoods. Composite boards also tend to last longer than natural wood. Environmental factors like arid or humid climates can shorten a deck's lifespan. To extend the life of wood decking, it's important to consistently clean and seal it to protect against moisture, UV light, and insects.

Ultimately, overapplication of stain can compromise the deck's appearance, durability, and longevity. It may result in an uneven finish, with excess stain pooling, dripping, or drying into thick patches. It can also obscure the wood's natural grain and texture, detracting from the desired aesthetic. Moreover, excessive staining may not fully penetrate the wood, leading to poor adhesion and premature wear. Additionally, thick layers of stain are prone to peeling, cracking, and blistering as they struggle to bond with the surface.
