"The front yard was not leveled and sloped as agreed upon. They took out some rocks in the front yard and some dirt. they put topsoil down and then sod that was about 4 days and dying. As of July 31, 2024, there are still holes in the lawn where the sod has not grown together. The front lawn is not at the angle of slope that we agreed upon. In the back yard they agreed upon removing some dirt and rock, then replacing it with a four-foot-high granite wall 90 feet long. The wall is only approximately 75 feet long and some of it is 4 feet high and about 15 to 20 feet of the wall is less than 3 feet high. This is not what the contract said when we signed it but he still charged us the full amount of a 90-foot wall 4 feet high and tried to convince us that his measurements were right. When the men were building the wall, the back lawn was packed down a lot and now it does not let the water soak in. I asked the men if they could return to pick up the sod in the backyard and put in some topsoil to make it the same height as the rest of the yard, and they said no. So, I asked him to return a portion of my money so I could have someone else come in to correct his inability to do it as we agreed upon. He said no he couldn't refund any money. We are waiting for the individual to come out to our house to look at the job to evaluate how the job was done. So please contact us on a date as soon as possible."

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.
