"I desperately needed my home to have a facelift. With older homes insulation can be a major problem and old windows and old siding doesn't help with this. I didn't know how to start or where to even begin. When I heard about Vic I thought I would give him a shot. I was beyond impressed with his work ethic and knowledge in this field. He was able to make a plan of what needed to be done, he was very professional through out the process. I had dry rot and he was able to fix this before installing the siding. All in all the work was completed very swiftly, I was able to get new windows and siding for the entire home. The process was so quick and pain free so I'm a beyond grateful and now my home is absolutely beautiful! Thanks Vic!!!!"

"Matt was very easy to work with, and went above and beyond on the drywall repair from some extensive plumbing that had occurred. He worked with me and with the plumber to be sure everything was left in better condition than when we started. I can't recommend him highly enough and plan to use him for any home repairs we have in the future."

Deck Repair 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.

Yes, pressure washing a wood deck can be a good idea as it effectively lifts ingrained dirt, mold, and mildew, improving the deck's appearance and longevity. However, it must be done carefully, as it's easy to damage the wood, especially softwoods. To pressure wash safely, use a lower pressure setting and a wide, 40-degree fan pattern nozzle (often white). Keep the nozzle at least a foot away from the wood surface and maintain constant motion, avoiding hovering in one spot to prevent gouging.

The best time to paint your deck is when temperatures are neither too cold (below 60 degrees) nor too hot (above 85 degrees). Always paint your deck when there’s no risk of rain. For fast-drying paint like acrylic or latex, ensure your deck can dry for at least four hours. Oil-based paints take longer to dry and may require 48 hours to completely cure.

Space deck handrail posts four to six feet apart. If the posts are more than six feet apart, the railing will be less able to withstand lateral forces and is more susceptible to breaking. Additionally, railing posts that are more than six feet apart may not be up to code, and you may face fines and be required to reinstall the posts to bring them up to code.

Building codes for deck railings can vary by location, so it's important to consult your local regulations before construction. Generally, a guardrail is required for any deck that is more than 30 inches above the ground.

For residential properties, the standard minimum height for a deck railing is 36 inches. However, some states and municipalities have stricter requirements; for example, California and Washington mandate railings that are at least 42 inches high. Therefore, a 42-inch railing is not considered too high and may be required in your area or chosen voluntarily for additional safety.

In addition to height requirements, codes also specify other safety features, such as the maximum spacing between balusters to ensure they are close enough to prevent a child from squeezing through.
