"Had a great experience with this company. Brian was very thorough and helpful. The Guys doing the painting were very hardworking and polite. Got the job done fast without cutting corners. Have already recommended them to others. Never thought a professional paint job would make that much of a difference over DYI. I was wrong. The walls in my house look brand new and they are so smooth. Made it look like I had the drywall replaced. It is so clean and perfect."

"I was looking for someone to trim my shrubs and freshen up my flower beds. Antonio and his wife came by on Saturday to give me an estimate which was very reasonable. So glad I decided to hire him because he and his wife worked tirelessly to make my yards look awesome again! Thanks for such a great job!"

"Mike and his crew did a fantastic job of soft washing and staining my approximately 15 year old wood fence. I am very pleased with everything that was done...very professional, on time, great value and fast service. Any questions I asked were answered with facts, not just data. They went above and beyond, fixing loose boards, etc. I highly recommend! I would definitely use them again. Before and after photos."

"Luke was a gift! He responded quickly to my call and was able to start painting two days later. He was professional, knowledgeable, on time and always cognizant of the fact that I was working from home while he was painting. He meticulously painted my entire house and it looks amazing. I highly recommend Luke, you will not be disappointed."

"It gives me great pleasure to offer this review for Michael's Complete Home Maintenance. I have had two occasions to call on Michael Miller for his services. First, to repair a toilet installation that became an emergency situation, and second, a washing machine repair. The first happened on a Saturday and Michael was on scene with an hour. He took care of the problem making certain to attend to all matters of the flooding that had occurred. Second was my washing machine repair which he performed in under thirty minutes. I live in Ozark, Alabama but am originally from New England and I can say with absolute surety that what Michael charged me for his work would have been four to five times greater back home. Michael's work is outstanding and the response time remarkably quick. When he says he can do anything this is not an exaggeration or hyperbole. Hr really can. He has my complete faith and trust. There are many projects in my home that need a skilled hand and Michael will be the only one I contact to perform the work."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

When staining a deck, don’t skip surface prep, avoid staining damp or dirty boards, and don’t apply stain in extreme heat, cold, or wet conditions. Never overload the wood with a stain, as too much can cause tackiness or peeling. Also, don’t forget to test a small area first to ensure the color and finish look right.

Yes, it is generally safe to have a fire pit on a deck, but you must adhere to building codes and take several safety precautions. For both built-in and freestanding models, you must use a heat-resistant barrier, such as a fire pit pad or heat shield, between the pit and the deck. Additionally, consider the weight of the fire pit and ensure your deck can structurally support it, reinforcing it if necessary. The fire pit must also be positioned a safe distance from your house, particularly from materials like vinyl siding, to prevent heat damage.

Before installing a deck, you must build a base for the deck to rest upon, often made of compacted soil or gravel. While gravel is an optional material, it helps with drainage. Some contractors also recommend installing a weed control membrane, which helps provide a solid foundation for the frame. In the case of an elevated deck, a pro will often lay down a concrete slab as a foundation. 

Before installing any materials under the deck for removing moisture, you should perform some prep work on the ground. Work the dirt under the deck to create a grade away from the home. A grade of at least six inches for every 10 feet works well. Do not leave a gap between the dirt and the home’s foundation where water could pool. Once you or a contractor regrades the dirt under the deck, you then can add materials over the top.

Pressure-treated decks last 15 to 20 years on average, but with proper maintenance, you could get 40 to 50 years of value from yours. Reseal your deck every one to two years, and replace old or rotted wood as soon as possible to avoid structural damage. Where you live plays a role in the lifespan of your deck. Intense sunlight, rainfall, wind, and hail can reduce the deck’s lifespan.
