"I had an unusual problem with my ceiling. Zach identified the issue and quickly came up with a solution. He communicated very openly and was up front about the charges for the work (which was reasonable). Overall, I am very pleased."

"Words cannot describe the work that Howard and his crew did on my bathroom. I previously had another contractor work on my bathroom and they had bailed out mid-way. Howard was able to give me a price within estimates I was thinking. The crew that came had integrity and was hardworking while working on a difficult bathroom. They fixed the previous contractors mistakes and brought an old bathroom to an updated modern look. Thank-you for your time and I will definitely be working with Howard Collier in the future. The images that I have attached includes the finish product of Howard Collier’s team and the final items that just needed to be part of the kids/downstairs bathroom."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

In many areas, a floating deck that isn’t connected to your home and stays under 200 square feet and below 30 inches in height may not need a permit. These freestanding structures are often considered low-risk, which can simplify the building process. However, building codes vary greatly based on location. Before investing in any home improvement project, check with your local permitting office for deck-building guidelines.

Deck skirting shouldn’t touch the ground, especially if you have a wood deck, which is vulnerable to moisture. Ideally, you should leave at least 3/4 of an inch of space between the deck skirting and the ground for more ventilation. Pros also recommend that you incorporate about 1 square foot of space for ventilation for the underside of the deck to every 150 square feet of decking. Proper ventilation prevents mold growth and rot that can damage your deck.

With proper installation and maintenance, a vinyl deck can last up to 30 years. Factors like regular cleaning, minimal wear and tear, proper installation, and the use of higher-grade materials can extend its durability. However, extreme weather conditions or neglecting maintenance might shorten its lifespan. Adhering to manufacturer recommendations for care and occasional inspections can significantly prolong a vinyl deck's longevity.

Increases livable area and enhances aesthetic, often boosting property appeal.

Some elevated decks require stairs that lead to the ground level per the local fire codes in some municipalities. In other regions, a staircase is an optional feature that can increase accessibility and convenience for homeowners who want ground-level access to their deck. Additionally, a staircase is necessary if your home doesn't have an existing door leading to the deck.
