"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!"

We have 5 employees, we do some sub-contracting, we bill from the office and we do not finance. We do accept credit cards

"Mr Swearingen was a salesperson but unprofessional and rude once he closed the deal. A few of my posts are split, there are gaps and warped fencing, he was upset when I asked questions about my fence line and build, he upsold me like the salesman he is but I don’t see the quality difference in the type of wood provided. I would love to ask questions but I know it would be met with disrespect. I refuse to give him more business. I truly wish there was someone else in the company to voice my concerns with."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Will pressure-treated wood rot? This wood could eventually suffer from rot, although it takes longer compared to untreated wood. Even though the chemicals applied to pressure-treated wood protect it, they eventually dissipate and leave the wood vulnerable. You can delay the appearance of rot in the treated wood by reducing its direct exposure to moisture and by painting it. Using fewer screws or nails in the wood—and thereby creating fewer holes in it—also delays the chances of rot forming.

There are deck restoration products and oil-based wood stains that can help bring back some of the color and shine to your faded Trex decking. However, if your boards are suffering from serious fading due to UV rays or chemical cleaning products, don’t expect miracles. Also, these products are only suitable for use on the older Trex boards, not the capped, second-generation Trex products. 

Start with a 60- or 80-grit sandpaper when sanding a deck, though this could change depending on the type of wood that comprises the deck and how smooth you want the overall finish. If you prioritize a smooth final finish, progress to a finer grit like 120 or 150. Avoid ultra-fine grits for traditional sanding, as it could close up the wood pores and make it harder to apply a finish down the line.

The cost to repair a deck is between $900 and $3,500, depending on the cause and extent of the damage. For example, fixing a sinking deck caused by pest damage can cost between $200 and $600, while replacing sinking boards costs between $500 and $4,000.

Typically, most residential wooden decks are designed to support approximately 40 pounds per square foot, including the deck’s weight and any items placed on it. While this is fine for typical use, it is usually not enough to hold the weight of a hot tub filled with water and people. To safely support a hot tub, your wood deck will likely require reinforcement. Therefore, it’s best to have a contractor or a structural engineer assess it before hot tub installation.
