Q: Should a gate swing in or out?

• <div><p>Ideally, a gate should be able to swing both in and out. However, if it can only open in one direction, it is generally best for it to swing inward. This is often the safest option, especially for deck gates near steps, as you'll want the gate to swing away from the stairs. An inward swing also prevents the gate from opening into a public space, like a sidewalk, and can be more convenient when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.</p><p>There are exceptions, however. The layout of your property may require a different approach. For example, if your property is on a slope, the gate may not be able to swing inward. You should also ensure the gate can open fully without colliding with any objects or blocking access to other areas. For a backyard garden gate where public access isn't a concern, the direction it swings is largely a matter of personal preference. Finally, always check your local building codes, as they may have specific requirements for which way a gate must swing.</p></div>

Q: Should I put a lattice under the deck?

• <div><p>Putting lattice under a deck will create a polished look that allows for air ventilation. You can also store items underneath as the lattice provides privacy and protection from the weather. You can also put lattice under a porch to create a polished look in the front of your house.</p></div>

Q: What adds more value: a sunroom or a deck?

• <div><p>A sunroom will add more value to your home than a deck, but with a much higher up-front cost. Depending on its construction and function, a sunroom may be counted as additional living space, while a deck is strictly an outdoor feature. Both will increase your home&rsquo;s value, but the sunroom will have a much bigger effect.</p></div>

Q: What materials are commonly used for decks and porches?

• <div><p>Choices include wood, composite, and hardwoods, each with unique benefits.</p></div>

Q: What maintenance is necessary for new decks?

• <div><p>Routine cleaning, sealing/staining, and inspection prolong deck life and appearance.</p></div>

"Mr Webb's work is very good and my wife and I are very pleased with his work, cost and work time. We have used Complete Home Repair for several small repairs this year and have always been very pleased. He shows up when he says he will and gets the job done. So when we planned this latest project, we did not hesitate to call them and in fact did not even think about any one else.
We have in mind some other projects around here and will certainly call them first. We found Complete Home Repair on Angie's list and have even found others for HVAC etc.
