"Good people who are easy to deal with.  Framing, siding and non-finish work are their strong suits.  Fit and finish are sub-par.  Attention to detail was hit and miss; some of the misses were very significant in nature.  Job site clean up was not great and the project ran beyond the completion date by more than two months, one week of this was due to a customer change order.  The finished product is sound, passed all inspections without failure and looks good until you examine the details up close.  If you demand high quality fit & finish be sure and put the details in writing up front to avoid disappointment.  Leave no detail out when it comes to materials, no matter how small it may be, right down to the fasteners.  If you are unable to participate at this level, find a higher-end custom home builder who will spend the time necessary on details; it will cost you more of course.  It all comes down to your budget and priorities.

"Noah has done two projects for us. First, he power washed our decks, repaired entry deck and built new steps for the deck. The second project was to construct a place for garden tools. He did this by adding to a shed. After telling him what we wanted, he drew the plans and gave us an estimate of the cost (which we felt was reasonable). Noah works with accuracy, speed, efficiency and cleans up his mess!"

Deck Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Yes, but ensuring the deck has a solid foundation with adequate footings is critical before building, as the weight of a sunroom will put significant pressure on the structure below. Even if your deck is properly constructed, it may not be able to handle the extra weight. While some basic, lightweight, prefabricated sunrooms can sit on a deck with a strong existing foundation without additional supports, in many cases, the foundation and joists will need reinforcement. It is always best to have a structural engineer perform an inspection to evaluate the deck's quality and structural integrity. A professional can help you decide if reinforcement is sufficient or if it's better to tear down the deck and start over.

While you can use various materials like sand or even just soil, gravel is widely considered the best option to put under a deck. It provides excellent drainage and is resistant to water, fire, and pests. Gravel also helps anchor the soil to prevent erosion during heavy rain and acts as a built-in weed blocker, reducing regular upkeep. Furthermore, it is simple to spread, available in various textures and tones, and adds a polished look that complements any deck design.

Deck stairs should have at least three stringers rather than two. The recommended minimum width for stairs is 36 inches, and the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors recommends at least three cut stringers to provide sufficient support on wood decking stairs of this width. Generally, stringers should be a maximum of 16 inches apart for wood decking and 12 inches apart for more flexible composite decking.

It depends on the type of wood. The average cost to build a deck out of pressure-treated lumber is $15 to $25 per square foot, but more affordable varieties such as bamboo and cedar cost less at around $3 to $10 per square foot. However, when comparing the cost of vinyl decking versus wood decking, it’s important to also consider ongoing maintenance costs. For example, most woods require regular sealing to keep them protected against weather and rot.

Space deck handrail posts four to six feet apart. If the posts are more than six feet apart, the railing will be less able to withstand lateral forces and is more susceptible to breaking. Additionally, railing posts that are more than six feet apart may not be up to code, and you may face fines and be required to reinstall the posts to bring them up to code.
