"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

Deck stairs should have at least three stringers rather than two. The recommended minimum width for stairs is 36 inches, and the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors recommends at least three cut stringers to provide sufficient support on wood decking stairs of this width. Generally, stringers should be a maximum of 16 inches apart for wood decking and 12 inches apart for more flexible composite decking.

Materials for a second-story deck must be weather- and rot-resistant, though the specific choices will largely be determined by your budget and style preference. Pressure-treated wood is on the lower end of the price scale, but it can be customized and stained the way you like it. Composite, on the other hand, is pricier for installation and has fewer options for customization, but you’ll save money and time in the long run because it requires little maintenance.

It’s best to prime composite decking before painting. This promotes better paint adhesion, helps create a smooth finish, and can mean the paint job will last longer. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for application, allow ample primer drying time before painting (typically 24 to 48 hours), and thoroughly clean the deck boards to promote the best adhesion.

The life expectancy of deck boards varies widely based on the material, climate, and maintenance. Untreated wood boards typically last 10 to 30 years with proper care, while pressure-treated boards can last up to 50 years. Hardwoods generally outlast softwoods. Composite boards also tend to last longer than natural wood. Environmental factors like arid or humid climates can shorten a deck's lifespan. To extend the life of wood decking, it's important to consistently clean and seal it to protect against moisture, UV light, and insects.

You do not have to dig footers for a deck as long as it meets local code and holds up to weather in your area. If you live somewhere that experiences high winds and earthquakes, you may need to dig for your deck posts. Deck blocks, post anchors with base plates, and helical pile systems are the three no-dig deck post options you can choose from if local code permits.
