"Called Harris Roofing after the wind storm and was blown away with how quick they responded. Within 24 hours I had a repair done, a quote for a new roof and a contract sent to me. Fast forward 2 weeks later and he tore off and replaced my roof and only took about 1.5 days. Always kept me updated along the way and job site was always clean. Price was reasonable and didn't feel like I was being taken advantage of. Would recommend this roofing company to anyone for any roofing needs!"

"I found them on Angie’s List. They said that they had an A rating, but it has been a very questionable relationship. Their estimate for the job was $300, and they finally got it down to $250. I had given an $80 check for the estimate to the man who came down, and it was to be applied to the services. I had issued the check on the company name, and the owner called and said that the bank wouldn’t accept the check because it didn’t have his personal name on it. I think that is unusual, because he should have a business account. He came back, and I gave him another check for $250, because he needed the check to go and buy supplies to clean my deck. I thought that was unusual too, because he was running it so close that I had to pay for the supplies before he could use them. He sent a man back at around five in the evening, which was very late, and he started scrubbing my deck with some gallons of detergent and my broom, which I had offered. He didn’t have any power washing equipment, so he scrubbed and scrubbed, and he had just started on my driveway, when his boss came and picked him up at seven. When I questioned him about the power equipment, he said that it was at another job, and he was going to go and get it. When he came back, he said that he didn’t have any power equipment. So that man is going to come and scrub my driveway this morning, with my hose and my broom. I have some more work that I wanted him to do, but now I don’t know if I want him to do any more work for me at all. He said that he was sorry, and that it was all a misunderstanding, but it was just his total inefficiency. The worker who worked here really worked hard, and he did a good job, but I was really surprised that he had to come and get another check so that he could go and buy some supplies, and the fact that he doesn’t have a business account. I was also surprised that he sent that man to scrub my deck with a gallon of detergent. I have cats, cats lick their feet, and I would just be horrified if anything happened to them."

Deck Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Whether you need a permit depends on the deck design and local regulations. Most areas mandate a building permit if the deck is over a specific height or if it's attached to a pre-existing structure. Shorter, freestanding decks may not require a permit, but you should check with local zoning ordinances and your homeowners association for specifics.

Ultimately, overapplication of stain can compromise the deck's appearance, durability, and longevity. It may result in an uneven finish, with excess stain pooling, dripping, or drying into thick patches. It can also obscure the wood's natural grain and texture, detracting from the desired aesthetic. Moreover, excessive staining may not fully penetrate the wood, leading to poor adhesion and premature wear. Additionally, thick layers of stain are prone to peeling, cracking, and blistering as they struggle to bond with the surface. 

Liquid rubber is great for waterproofing, but it can damage your deck if it’s not applied correctly. First, it can trap moisture in the wood if the deck isn’t completely dry before application.  Second, applying it too thickly can create a heavy, rubbery surface layer that peels and cracks under fluctuating temperatures. For the best results, ensure the wood is completely dry before application, and apply the liquid rubber in thin, even coats. A quick inspection every now and then will help you catch any issues early, keeping your deck protected and looking its best.

Building a deck without a permit could lead to fines for both the homeowner and the contractor. The exact penalties will depend on your state and municipal building laws. You might also be required to remove the deck and apply for a permit before you can build another. While it might be tempting to skip the permit to save a few bucks, it’ll cost you much more if you’re caught.

It is recommended to clean your deck once or twice a year to prevent the accumulation of dirt, debris, mold, and mildew. The ideal times for cleaning are in the spring and fall. A spring cleaning removes grime that has built up over the winter, preparing your deck for summer use. A fall cleaning washes away messes from summer activities, preventing them from setting into the wood over the winter. The exact frequency can depend on factors such as how often the deck is used, its exposure to pollen, and whether salt was used on it during the winter. Regular cleaning helps protect the wood and its finish from damage.
