"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."

"Terry Eldridge does a great job and is a god-send. Due to health issues neither my spouse nor myself are able to keep our yard looking as trim and as neat as we would like it to be. But thanks to Terry, just like clock work, we can count on someone showing up to handle that job for us. Our yard has never looked better and it is being maintained at a very reasonable rate as well."

"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

Staining and sealing the underside of a deck creates a moisture barrier but traps water in the boards, quickly leading to rot. No matter how well you seal the above deck, water still gets through via nails and screw heads on the surface. Allow this water to flow naturally under the deck, where it is routed through the drainage system.

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.

Pressure-treated wood contains preservatives that give the material internal protection from rot and pests. Untreated lumber won’t last more than a few years unless you choose a more expensive wood, like cedar, that naturally stands up well to moisture. Composite decking can outlast wood but is more expensive and doesn’t look as natural. Keep in mind that you’ll need to seal any exterior wood product to protect it from the elements and other forms of external damage.

The most likely causes of a deck leaning to one side are damaged deck posts, soil erosion, and inadequate deck footings. If you’re not sure about the exact cause, the best option is to call a contractor who can build a deck to inspect the damage and recommend the best way forward.

The cost to build a second-story deck averages $4,800, though the actual price could range as low as $420 to upwards of $16,000. While labor costs range between 35% and 50% of the total project cost, the materials and complexity of design will ultimately lead you to save or spend more money on this home addition.
