"Luisa was dependable, prompt, extremely skilled, and very knowledgeable. During this deck repair we floated a footer, replaced boards, reinstalled steps and railings. All excellent work! Additionally she installed an outside hose bib that for some reason the previous homeowner had not replaced in this 1938 home. She had the knowledge and skill set to complete both jobs efficiently. We had several estimates for the deck job and by far she was the most reasonable and dependable!!! I would highly recommended her for your home repairs!!!"

"One of the best contractors we have had the pleasure of working with. Bill and John Clark were very courteous and professional from our initial estimate request until the job was completed. The painting crew were dependable, polite, conscientious workers and their attention to the small details gave the impression the were owners not employees. I really can't say enough about Chris and the rest of the crew. We will definitely hire Paintworkz for any future painting jobs."

"Corey has worked for us for several years, providing lawn and yard maintenance services, and during that time he has consistently demonstrated exceptional reliability, professionalism, and dedication. Corey is incredibly dependable?he always completes his work thoroughly and with great attention to detail. He not only fulfills his responsibilities without fail but also goes above and beyond what is expected. On numerous occasions, if we had not yet reached out to schedule yard work, Corey would take the initiative to contact us to ensure everything was taken care of in a timely manner. His strong work ethic and proactive communication have made him an invaluable part of maintaining our property. It is rare to find someone so committed to doing their job well and taking pride in the results. I have the utmost confidence in Corey?s abilities and character. I wholeheartedly recommend him for any role or service that requires reliability. Carla N."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

While the terms deck and porch are often used interchangeably, they are two distinct structures. A porch is a covered structure, usually attached to the front of a home, that offers protection from the elements. In contrast, a deck is an open, uncovered platform, often attached to the back or side of a home. Because porches have a roof, they typically require less maintenance than decks, but both features need regular cleaning and repairs to stay in good condition.

Rot loves moisture, so deck rot typically impacts the parts of a board that stay wet. This includes the underside of boards, in addition to support posts and joists. However, any part of a board can rot, given the right conditions. 

In the majority of cases, you don’t need regulatory permission or permits to remove decking components and materials. However, the exception is if you live in or near a wildlife conservation area, which could require permits and consent prior to beginning the demolition. Check with a local regulatory agency for more information.

Both composite and PVC decking are excellent alternatives to wood. However, while composite is moderately priced and lasts around 30 years, PVC costs more and lasts longer. PVC is also more durable, though both materials are more durable than wood decking. Ultimately, the choice between composite and PVC decking will come down to your budget and preferences.

Some elevated decks require stairs that lead to the ground level per the local fire codes in some municipalities. In other regions, a staircase is an optional feature that can increase accessibility and convenience for homeowners who want ground-level access to their deck. Additionally, a staircase is necessary if your home doesn't have an existing door leading to the deck.
