"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!!!"

"Paintworkz staff painted the interior of my home. Mark and Calvin worked diligently to ensure that living area was clean and safe for children to play every evening. (This was very important to us since we have a 2 year old and 7 month old in the home) The paint turned out beautifully and we couldn't be happier. John and William worked quickly to get us a quote and put us on the schedule. We had a great experience and recommend them to anyone looking for professionals in this area."

"When I talked to them I told him that I wanted the house and the deck and patio and the fence around the deck and patio power washed. They did not do the deck nor the patio for he said it was not included in the price! They came without a ladder to power wash a two-story house and had to be provided with one!"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

A random orbital sander is best for sanding a deck because it is easier to handle than other power sanders and is less likely to damage the wood. Most decks are made of types of softwood, so a gentler sanding process is essential to prevent permanent blemishes. For example, belt sanders can gouge softwoods.

Choices include wood, composite, and hardwoods, each with unique benefits.

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 problems with composite decking include a high rate of expansion and contraction from temperature swings. This characteristic can cause boards to split, delaminate, or peel. In addition, significant movement can cause shrinking, warping, twisting, and bending. For this reason, you should minimize moisture and ensure proper airflow below your deck.

Covering your deck with a breathable tarp can protect it from snow, ice, and cold winter temperatures. This is a good winterizing solution if you don’t plan to use your deck at all during the colder months. However, it might be best to skip the tarp if you’ll still be walking on your deck or using it in a limited capacity.
