"We recently had Mega Power Electric Inc install a solar system and panels. The President and provided excellent communication all the way through the process. He even met with us after installation to explain the almost incomprehensible PG&E bill. Although not the least expensive bid, his was competitive and I felt he was as interested in educating me about solar and the various types of panels and inverter systems as he was in selling a system. He demonstrated how the array of panels would meet our energy needs and as opposed to some of the other companies, wasn't selling us more than we needed. We are very satisfied with our solar system and I highly recommended Mega Power Electric Inc."

"Martin and his team had split my upstairs loft (too much space we weren't using) and placed walls, a door, moved my current ceiling fan, installed a new ceiling fan, trim and paint and everything was absolutely amazing. We did speak with another potential contractor but we were won over by Martin's professionalism. Martin had excellent communication that my husband and I both appreciated. Any time he needed to stop by or wanted to do a quick touch up he also let us know ahead of time. He consulted us with any minor change or adjustment and OH MY LORD the paint matching!!!! I was a little nervous that the color match for the outer wall wouldn't match the rest of the house but you literally cant event tell that the wall was built separately. last, they were all very courteous of our space, laying down plastic and replacing it if torn to make sure our hardwoods and carpet were protected. We definitely plan to keep his contact for any other renovations we have :)"

"Clint was very professional, polite, on time, & explained all steps to me. He tore down an existing 160 ft. fence, hauled that away, & constructed a beautiful cedar fence. My neighbor & I are very pleased. I would hire him back for more projects. A very nice family to work with."

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

When building an outdoor or deck gate, it's crucial to use durable wood that can withstand harsh weather conditions like sunlight, rain, wind, and snow. Redwood and cedar are excellent choices as they naturally resist decay. While redwood is considered more elegant, cedar is a more affordable option. Other suitable woods include oak and pressure-treated pine, which is specifically treated to resist rot. Although some softwoods like pine are popular, untreated softwoods such as pine and spruce should generally be avoided for outdoor projects because they are susceptible to damage from water, rot, and the sun. Ultimately, it's wise to consider your local climate when selecting the right wood for your gate.

In most cases, sanding an old deck before staining it is necessary to achieve a decent finish. If your old deck has a relatively new stain finish on it and you're only doing touch-ups, you can generally skip the sanding part. However, if your goal is to make the deck look and function better, sanding first is a must. 

Composite decking requires a solid foundation or substructure for support. This base is typically a frame composed of posts, beams, joists, and footings. The frame can be built from various materials, such as composite, plastic, timber, or metal, depending on your budget, deck type, and environmental conditions. For maximum stability, a professional deck builder may recommend installing this frame on top of a solid concrete base. It is best to discuss the most suitable substructure design and materials for your specific project with a professional.

The overhang, or nosing, of deck steps is another area that will be covered in building code requirements. The noses on your deck steps should have a minimum overhang of ¾ inch. For safety, usability, and code compliance, the nosing of deck steps should not extend past 1¼ inches.

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.
