"I hired the Paint Doctor to paint the exterior of our house as well as to stain our redwood deck. Chris Dorry was the estimator and primary contact. He was very knowledgeable and professional. They also provided some exterior wood replacement in weathered areas. The painters were always very punctual and worked everyday until the job was completed. Chris also set me up with a Sherwin Williams color consultant who provided valuable advice and help in finalizing our colors. Would definitely hire them again!"

It was difficult to have him do the work in a timely way as he was busy with another big job and with the weather being unseasonably wet this summer it was difficult to get the work done.

He and his wife worked hard to accomplish all the handyman jobs I've been wanting to get done and I appreciated their work.

"I needed someone to powerwash and stain my 3000 sq. ft. of stockade fencing. I couldn't find anyone in the area to do it, and finally found Paul's Bucket Truck. He gave me a more than fair price and he and his men did an excellent job. I asked him to haul away debris that I had cleaned out of the easement behind my house as well as old fence boards that I had replaced before he did the fence staining. He took care of all of that as well for a little extra $$. I was very pleased with his service and the work of his men. I would recommend them and use his services again for other jobs that I can't handle myself. Ed"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can build a deck over your outdoor HVAC unit, but you need to leave at least 5 feet of vertical clearance above the unit. If you don’t want your deck to be that high off the ground, you could build a floating deck in another part of your yard—again, as long as you leave at least 4 feet of horizontal space between the deck and your AC unit.

Spindles on a deck may also be called balusters or pickets. While not as important to the structural support of the deck as the rail posts, they play a critical role in ensuring the deck is safe to use by closing in large gaps in the railing. For this reason, balusters must be no more than 4 inches away from one another.

There are a variety of second-story deck privacy ideas depending on your budget and aesthetic. For starters, you might consider fencing or tall privacy railing that masks a good portion of the open deck. A pergola or an awning can provide additional cover and shade. Outdoor curtains are an easy way to add or remove privacy at your convenience, plus they’re a wallet-friendly way to decorate your deck.

PVC decking can get slippery when wet because it’s made from plastic. However, composite and wood decking can also be slippery when wet. It’s best to wear shoes with grippy soles when walking on a wet deck, no matter the material, and to be extra cautious not to slip and fall down.

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.
