Kevin B. VanErt, Jr. established VanErts Lawn Service in 1997, beginning as a residential mowing company. At age 16, he mowed 40 lawns a week in a manufactured home neighborhood. After high school, Kevin planned to attend college to study engineering, but decided to wait one year to earn funding. Soon, four years had gone by and the company grew from a push mower in the back of his parents Suburban to trailers, riding mowers and his second pick-up truck. The possibilities of success soon outweighed the option of attending college. Over the next five years, landscaping became his passion. Learning to run the business was difficult, but working outdoors and creating unique projects was fun. After working on many national disaster projects through local churches and Samaritans Purse, Kevin decided to start doing more building construction projects and now focuses on hardscapes and home repair work.

Pressure-treated wood decks typically last between 15 and 25 years with proper maintenance. Factors influencing longevity include local weather conditions, maintenance frequency, wood quality, and usage patterns. Regular sealing provides critical moisture protection, while prompt repairs prevent small issues from causing structural problems. Without proper care, even quality pressure-treated lumber may deteriorate significantly faster.
Most localities require building permits for deck construction, particularly for structures attached to your home or elevated above a certain height. Permit requirements vary significantly between jurisdictions, with costs typically ranging from $50 to $250. Skipping required permits may result in fines, forced removal, or complications when selling your property. Always check with your local building department before beginning construction.
While deck construction occurs year-round in many regions, late spring through early fall typically offers optimal building conditions. However, scheduling during off-peak seasons (late fall or winter) often secures better contractor availability and potentially lower rates. Weather considerations include avoiding periods of excessive rain or freezing temperatures that could complicate concrete work or wood installation.
Newly installed pressure-treated lumber requires a drying period before accepting stain or sealer properly. This waiting period typically ranges from four weeks to three months depending on your climate and the wood's initial moisture content. Testing readiness by sprinkling water on the surface helps determine when the wood will accept treatment—if water beads up, continue waiting; if it absorbs quickly, the deck is ready for staining.
