"I had an outdoor playground set. Adrian was professional and hard-working. Great communication and he brought all the required tools and equipment. He showed up first thing in the morning on a short notice and it was all done before the end of the day. The assembly looks great and I know the kids will love it!"

"Francisco and crew are really great guys ! They were very professional and got my house painted in record time ! They did a great job from start to finish. I have an old house 1907, and they took great care in masking off the trim, stained glass windows,etc. They were very pleasant while they were working. The price was very fair and the work is outstanding !"

"The owner (Frederick "Michael" Jones, an experienced painting contractor) was very straightforward and accommodating, checking on the job several times per day.  The painting crew (Guillermo, Oliver, and Wilmer, all from Guatemala in their 20's) was exceptionally diligent, considerate, neat, and equally accommodating.  The job began and ended on time.  Though I'm no expert, there are many reasons to believe that the quality of work was high.  As one example, our protruding nails were fixed in a 6-step process: (1) set the nail; (2) prime the nail and surrounding depression; (3) fill the depression with Bondo; (4) sand the Bondo; (5) prime the Bondo; (6) apply the final coat(s).  Our house looks like new; time will tell how long that look lasts."

"They were punctual and flexible on the schedule. They responded to all my concerns in  a timely manner. There were a couple of areas that needed rework so I give them an A-, because of that, but overall it was a great value. I used an Angie's list special offer and the labor was only $999 for the full exterior painting of the house. A great deal!

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Building a deck without a permit could lead to fines for both the homeowner and the contractor. The exact penalties will depend on your state and municipal building laws. You might also be required to remove the deck and apply for a permit before you can build another. While it might be tempting to skip the permit to save a few bucks, it’ll cost you much more if you’re caught.

Be careful when choosing a product to help you remove ice from your wood deck. Never use sand, gravel, or salt, since these items can damage and scratch the wood. Instead, look for chemical de-icers that are marked as safe for wood decks or use hot water to melt snow and ice.

A deck doesn’t have to be perfectly level. Many pros even recommend a gentle slope to ensure proper drainage and increase longevity. The ideal gentle slope is about 1/8 to 1/4 inch per foot away from the property, leading water away from the home to prevent pooling and reduce the risk of damage. It also minimizes rot, mold, and other moisture-related problems. 

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.

It depends on the type of wood. The average cost to build a deck out of pressure-treated lumber is $15 to $25 per square foot, but more affordable varieties such as bamboo and cedar cost less at around $3 to $10 per square foot. However, when comparing the cost of vinyl decking versus wood decking, it’s important to also consider ongoing maintenance costs. For example, most woods require regular sealing to keep them protected against weather and rot.
