"The soft wash preformed by Lori and Richard made my house look very good. I actually saved money by invoking Ninja Clean because I thought my house needed painting, but after the wash, I realized it didn't need painting after all, except for some soffit areas water had caused minor wood deterioration. They did all I expected plus more. They seemed to really care about my house, which was refreshing these days, it seems. They provided tips for additional things that I could do, but not in a way that they were trying to get additional work. Nice job, Ninja Clean!"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Vinyl is generally considered to be the best option for homeowners seeking railings that are both durable and affordable. Vinyl provides protection against the mold and rot that can develop within wood railings. Composite is another budget-friendly option. However, people building high-end decks often prefer the look of glass panels or metal rails.

Ipe wood can last up to 75 years with minimal maintenance because its own oils help to preserve it. However, to get the most out of your Ipe wood deck, you should perform some routine maintenance, including regular cleaning, sweeping of leaves and debris, and rinsing spills with a hose. It’s also important to repair any deep scratches as soon as you spot them and reseal the deck annually to protect against scratches and scuffs.

Lattice should not touch the ground, as it creates a possibility for rot and a termite infestation. It’s best to leave a gap of 3 or 4 inches at the bottom for airflow and to keep the wood dry. You can add stones, bricks, or other decorative pieces to conceal the bottom of the lattice if desired.

A wood deck needs an annual cleaning, plus refinishing every two to three years, which involves sanding the deck and applying stain or sealer. If you have a painted deck, you’ll need to repaint it every 10 years. You should also fix and repair loose or broken deck boards, nails, and screws. Cleaning your deck regularly and applying sealant protects the wood from the elements, water damage, rot, mildew, and fading from the sun.

There are several methods for attaching stair stringers to a deck. The best way is to bolt the stringers to the deck joists using three carriage bolts in a triangular pattern. This method offers the sturdiest fit for stairs that won’t budge. Alternatively, attach the stringers to the deck rims using lag bolts or to the posts using adjustable slope hangers.
