"Chris is not your average skilled builder. He is above and beyond. He rebuilt our wooden pool deck with fencing and itâ s absolutely beautiful. Our master carpenter friend always comments on how well built it is every single time he lays eyes on it. Chris also built a treehouse for us - not just any old tree house, but a beautifully crafted work of art. Everything Chris builds is to the highest standards. Consequently, the things he builds last and last. I feel like our house is in constant need of repairs - but not the things Chris built. They remain beautiful and solid and look as good now as when he built them. Thatâ s what you get when you hire the best. On top of it, Chris is a great guy to work with. Heâ s humble and honest and easy to communicate with. I highly recommend him."

"Agron was very receptive and quick to answer any and all questions. He was incredibly professional and very honest. A really nice guy all around. He and his crew completed the work quickly, and addressed all concerns on the final walk through. The roof looks great and we get lots of compliments from our neighbors."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

It’s important to make sure the wood on a new deck is properly seasoned. Seasoning a deck is simple: Once you build it (or have a pro do so), just leave it alone so it can acclimate to the environment. If you don’t give the deck proper seasoning time before staining, the stain can lock in any lingering moisture and cause mold, rot, and other moisture issues down the road. Give the wood at least four to eight weeks to season before you stain.

You can add a roof to most decks, but you need to have it inspected first. If your deck didn’t come with a roof initially, it may not be able to handle the weight without some structural changes. You can add additional supports to your existing deck to safely add a roof, and tying your deck’s roof to an exterior wall can help add some structural stability, but remember these aren’t DIY projects and need to be left to a pro. 

The best base materials for a ground-level or floating deck are typically gravel and crushed stone (also known as landscaping rocks). These options are inexpensive, provide excellent drainage, prevent weeds, and help minimize moisture buildup, which reduces shifting and rotting. For added stability and to evenly distribute the weight, you can use concrete deck blocks or pavers. While more expensive, concrete blocks and pavers offer a sturdier base than gravel or crushed stone alone.

The most likely causes of a deck leaning to one side are damaged deck posts, soil erosion, and inadequate deck footings. If you’re not sure about the exact cause, the best option is to call a contractor who can build a deck to inspect the damage and recommend the best way forward.

Footings for ground-level decks need to be at least 12 inches deep, and some areas require them to be even deeper. A standard range for deck footings is anywhere from 12 to 48 inches. The minimum footing depth is determined by an area’s frost line and soil conditions. If you’re unsure how deep to install deck footings, check local building codes to find the minimum footing depth in your area.
