"Nice job. Genuine pricing and quality work. Was bit sceptical initially of using Angi. But once the vendor 'Elite Cleaning' got finalized it was smooth from beginning to end. Robert ( Rob) owner of Elite cleaning is seasoned professional. He guides his clients and is very fair and transparent. Crew / team of Elite is also interesting, not in rush to wrap things. They enjoy doing their stuff and are considerate of fine things. Overall 5 star and my best wishes to them."

"Angie's List provided four businesses related to our inquiry. We submitted inquiries to all four companies. Two never responded, one responded with an email that goes out to all inquiries and that was the last we heard from that company. All three had high ratings per the Angie's List site. Natural Landscaping was the only company that responded, with a call within an hour of our inquiry. Natural Landscaping was the perfect choice for our needs. Misael is professional, prompt, courteous and his recommendations are based on a keen eye and natural talent for landscaping. Misael listened to what we were requesting to have done then walked us through the work, offering suggestions and alternatives based on sound judgement. The results are ideal. We're extremely pleased with Misael's work and will be using Natural Landscaping to redo the back yard now and maintain both the front and back yards."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Increases livable area and enhances aesthetic, often boosting property appeal.

Most building codes require that spindles or balusters on deck and stair railings be spaced no more than four inches apart. This safety standard, often called the '4-inch sphere rule,' is designed to prevent small children or pets from slipping through the railing. A good way to visualize this is that a 4-inch sphere should not be able to pass between two spindles. For the same safety reason, the space between the bottom rail and the deck floor should also be no more than four inches. As a general guideline, professionals often install three balusters per foot of railing. However, since specific requirements can vary by location, it is crucial to check your local building codes to ensure compliance before starting your project.

Liquid rubber is great for waterproofing, but it can damage your deck if it’s not applied correctly. First, it can trap moisture in the wood if the deck isn’t completely dry before application.  Second, applying it too thickly can create a heavy, rubbery surface layer that peels and cracks under fluctuating temperatures. For the best results, ensure the wood is completely dry before application, and apply the liquid rubber in thin, even coats. A quick inspection every now and then will help you catch any issues early, keeping your deck protected and looking its best.

Whether you need a permit depends on the deck design and local regulations. Most areas mandate a building permit if the deck is over a specific height or if it's attached to a pre-existing structure. Shorter, freestanding decks may not require a permit, but you should check with local zoning ordinances and your homeowners association for specifics.

The best way to clean your decking is to clear debris from the gaps between the boards, sweep the surface, rinse it, apply cleaner, rinse again, and let it dry fully. A homemade deck cleaner made of two gallons of warm water and 1/2 cup vinegar is a simple cleaning solution for both wood and composite decking. You can sprinkle baking soda on any spots with mold or mildew, then scrub the area and rinse clean.
