"Gustavo was transparent about his pricing, regularly updated me on the progress of the work, and concluded with a thorough clean-up and final approval. The work on my railing was precise, sturdy, and looks fantastic. The entire process was smooth and professional, making the overall experience very rewarding. I truly appreciate his dedication and craftsmanship. I will certainly reach out to him for my future welding and fabrication needs and highly recommend his services to anyone looking for quality work."

"Our siding had dirt and algae buildup thick enough to be visible from the street. We spent over an hour on one section trying to clean it ourselves with a pressure washer and could barely tell the difference. Submitted a quote request through Angie's list. Received a call from Hydroclean the same afternoon. Completely polite and professional during the phone call, in person estimate and visit to do the work. Nathanael explained his service, the cleaner they use, and what the cost would be, and took time to make sure we didn't have any questions. After the work was finished, he also walked with us around the house to confirm that we were satisfied with the work. All of our siding is white again thanks to Hydroclean, the price was fair compared to other companies we talked to, and dealing with them was pleasant. What more can you ask for? We will definitely call them again if we need this service, and will recommend them to anyone who asks."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

It depends on the type of wood. The average cost to build a deck out of pressure-treated lumber is $15 to $25 per square foot, but more affordable varieties such as bamboo and cedar cost less at around $3 to $10 per square foot. However, when comparing the cost of vinyl decking versus wood decking, it’s important to also consider ongoing maintenance costs. For example, most woods require regular sealing to keep them protected against weather and rot.

Local building codes don’t specify the number of steps a deck can have before a railing is required, mainly because stair height varies widely. Most areas require decks 30 inches or higher to have a railing. While not exact, that roughly equates to four to seven steps.

Yes. Freestanding or floating decks are exactly what the name implies—structures with their own support beams. You can build a deck yourself and place it next to a house for the illusion of a connected deck without the hassle. Or you can construct it in a separate part of your yard for a dedicated outdoor entertainment space. For the purpose of removing a freestanding deck, the steps are the same as an attached deck, but you don’t have to cut the deck away from the home.

The best direction for a gate to swing depends on its location and purpose, but swinging inward is the general rule. An inward swing is often considered safer, prevents the gate from opening into public spaces like a sidewalk, and may be required by local building codes.

There are exceptions and specific considerations. If your property is on a slope, an inward swing might not be possible. For a deck gate, it's safest to have it swing away from any steps. In a backyard, the direction can be a matter of preference, though an inward swing can be helpful when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.

Regardless of direction, ensure the gate can open fully without hitting any objects or blocking spaces. While an inward swing is standard, a gate that can swing both in and out offers the most flexibility if your setup allows for it.

It is definitely worth sanding a deck to ensure the wood absorbs new stain. Sanding a deck removes the outer layers of aging wood, allowing the stain to penetrate. It also gives a fresh look to the entire surface as part of the deck refinishing process. Without sanding, your stain or sealant is less likely to absorb into the wood. While sanding a deck is a time-intensive project, the rewards are noticeable and long-lasting.
