"After refinishing our deck twice on our own with mediocre results both times, we finally decided to bring in a pro - and we couldn’t be happier with that decision. 507 Decks did an outstanding job from start to finish. Communication was clear and prompt, the service was professional, and most importantly we now have a deck we can actually enjoy for years to come. If you’re in the Winona area and need deck work done right, 507 Decks is the call to make."

"I hired Greg to perform multiple projects in and outside of my house. Greg does excellent work and projects I had Greg fix was a leaking chimney with multiple areas surrounding the chimney which leaked into my living room and closet. Chimney was replaced and fixtures and sealing were done to fix the leak. His work is perfection. This was a huge issue resolved with. There are many other projects which Greg fixed which include, however, not limited to some electrical outlet work and replacement, repaired a leaking faucet which leaked into my family room ceiling, repair of ceiling from leaks into family room. Outside of my house Greg fixed the overhang below the gutters which had come apart by wear and tear of the weather over the years. My drapes in my living room were replaced with blinds. Again excellent excellent work performed. I highly recommend Greg to do any projects needed in and outside of my house. He is very precise in all of his work performed. Greg is very professional and pleasant to have him do any of my projects and would highly recommend him for any issues a person would have. In a heartbeat I will have Greg repair any problems I have in the future. Greg was a gem I found who does pretty much everything. Today you have to hire big companies who do one project and then you have to find another big company to fix the other things and so it goes. Greg can do anything and does it in a timely manner. You just don't find an individual who does superb work in all areas of issues a person may need help with. He does an excellent job."

You do not have to dig footers for a deck as long as it meets local code and holds up to weather in your area. If you live somewhere that experiences high winds and earthquakes, you may need to dig for your deck posts. Deck blocks, post anchors with base plates, and helical pile systems are the three no-dig deck post options you can choose from if local code permits.
When sourced responsibly, the most sustainable wood decking options are timber trees like redwood, pine, Douglas fir, Nootka cypress, and Western red cedar. These tree species are fast-growing with low carbon emissions. Plus, most timber woods make durable deck materials because of their resistance to rot and decay over time.
The proper height for a stair riser or deck step is between four and seven inches, with seven inches often considered the most comfortable. Building your stairs to this height ensures a strain-free step position and minimizes the risk of trip and fall injuries. For optimal safety and comfort, especially on deck stairs, a rise of around seven inches should be paired with a tread depth (or run) of at least 10 to 12 inches. While it is possible to design stairs with risers up to 12 inches, this height can be challenging for children, pets, or individuals with mobility issues. Always check with your local building codes, as they may mandate specific dimensions that differ from these general recommendations.
Routine cleaning, sealing/staining, and inspection prolong deck life and appearance.
The average cost to professionally clean or pressure wash a deck is around $150, with prices typically ranging from $100 to $600. Several factors influence the final price, including the deck's size, material, condition, and how long it has been since its last cleaning. For a smaller deck of about 300 square feet, you might pay around $100. For a larger deck of 1,000 square feet or more, the cost could be closer to $300 to $400. Decks that are very dirty or haven't been cleaned in years may require more time and special detergents, which will increase the price. The deck's material also plays a role. Wood decks often cost more to clean because they require a gentle power washing technique to avoid damage. Composite decks are typically less expensive to clean, and cleaning a metal deck may cost around $100.
