How long should I wait to walk or drive on the repaired area?

• <div><p>If you used regular jointing sand, you can typically walk on the repaired area right away. If you used polymeric sand, wait at least <b>24 hours</b> before walking on it and <b>48 to 72 hours</b> before driving over it, depending on the weather. Polymeric sand needs time to fully cure and lock the pavers in place.</p></div>

Q: Is it better to sand or power wash a deck?

• <div><p>It is best to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-power-wash-deck.htm">power wash your deck</a> and sand it, as cleaning removes grime, mildew, and dirt, while sanding refreshes the wood and allows the stain to penetrate. You should clean your deck first, sand it, and then stain it. You should clean your deck annually, while sanding and staining only needs to be done every three years. </p></div>

Q: Can I replace just one spindle, or do I need to replace them all?

• <div><p>Yes, you can absolutely replace just one damaged spindle as long as you can find a matching replacement. However, if multiple spindles are damaged or you can't find an exact match, you might consider replacing an entire section for a more uniform look and structural integrity.</p></div>

Q: How should stair stringers be attached to a deck?

• <div><p>There are several methods for attaching stair stringers to a deck. The best way is to bolt the stringers to the deck joists using three carriage bolts in a triangular pattern. This method offers the sturdiest fit for stairs that won&rsquo;t budge. Alternatively, attach the stringers to the deck rims using lag bolts or to the posts using adjustable slope hangers.</p></div>

Q: How long does it take to install a porch column?

• <div><p>Installing an ornamental or <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/front-porch-decorating-ideas.htm">decorative porch</a> column takes around three to five hours. Structural columns take longer because your pro has to install a jack to hold up the roof while switching the column out. If there's any structural damage, it can add several days to the timeline to repair the damage. </p></div>

This local company exceeded my expectations as they have in the past (when they provided annual maintenance for my HVAC unit). Yesterday, I needed ducting installed to vent my dryer outside the crawlspace, where had been installed by the previous homeowners. Central Air sent two friendly,...
