"Very friendly and professional! We had a leaking shower which was pinpointed to where the tile wall meets the shower door. We decided to call for help when the leak was bad enough that it leaked water into our carpeted closet. It was difficult for us by ourselves to locate the leak and be certain it wasn't all over in the wall behind the tile in our shower. He reassured us that the issue was not very serious and would not take drastic measures such as removal and replacement of all the tile and/or drywall behind it (which with our limited knowledge we thought may be necessary). He offered to deep clean all of our grout (in the whole bathroom in which both the floor and many walls are tile) with a pressure washer, seal it, and then put down some heavy duty caulk for the seal in our shower all for $432. The bathroom is probably average size for one that contains a separate shower and tub, and his and her sinks. Not sure what the going rate for that is...so for all I know that's probably a reasonable price for all of those services. He said it would seem like a lot, but that it was actually a pretty good price for what he was offering to do. However, another contractor came out and looked at our issue and pointed out that we could probably get by with fixing it ourselves and didn't think our issue was very serious. If we try and it doesn't work then Tile and Grout cleaning will be on our short list of who to call. We were initially in a panicked state as we are young, not very familiar with home maintenance, and did not want to ruin our first house. I appreciate both Tile and Grout's honesty along with our other contractors in that none saw us in the state we were in and decided we would be great people to take advantage of and do a large, expensive, and unnecessary project to fix our problem. However, after having a few people look at our issue they've all reassured us that it is not that serious and that there still may be measures we can take ourselves!"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

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.

Decks are generally more expensive to build because they require elevating and railings. The difference between decks and patios is that decks are elevated, while patios are usually on the ground level. Plus, decks are usually made of wood and need more maintenance than most patios. However, decks and patios serve the same purpose, providing outdoor space for you to enjoy.

You typically don’t need a railing and handrails on a deck that’s less than 30 inches from the ground. However, consider adding them regardless. Railings provide additional safety for you and your guests who use your deck—plus, railings give the deck a more finished look than it would have without them.

Before installing a new railing, check the condition of the deck frame and joists, especially around the perimeter where posts attach. If boards are loose, soft, or show signs of rot, the structure may need repair. A deck pro can inspect your framing to confirm it meets load-bearing requirements.

You can build an outdoor kitchen on a deck, but you should choose composite decking since it's more heat-resistant. Metal deck materials like steel and aluminum are also good choices because they're less flammable than wood. You should also consider the weight of the kitchen—make sure your deck can support it and any appliances you plan to use. You should consult a structural engineer to confirm exactly how much weight your deck can safely support when building an outdoor kitchen.
