""Exceptionally well. Craftsperson Joe Puch carefully explained the repair steps and reasons for them. He did so at various points in the work progress. His work was meticulous. His manner was professional, polite and personable, right from punctual arrival to final clean-up of the work area. One of the best experiences I've ever had with a home services/repair contractor. Highly recommended.""

"I'm a Realtor Professional in the Colorado Springs /Pikes Peak Region of Colorado. I and several clients I have referred have used Brushmasters for many different projects including interior painting, exterior painting & deck staining. They have always been professional and provided a good service at a reasonable price. I was most impressed by a 2 story vaulted interior painting job they completed in just a couple days. They also stand behind their work which is rare in these times."

"Had my 2 bathrooms redone and my kitchen remodeled. Jonathan and his crew are wonderful to work with. Work is done on time and they did an outstanding job. I have gotten so many compliments on my kitchen and I was more than pleased with the work. My bathrooms are beautiful, fully tiled and I could not be happier with the work done. Prices were good, estimates given before the job was started so if I had any questions or concerns, I got them answered prior to the job starting. They cleaned up so well after the work was completed, so I had absolutely no concerns there. I definitely recommend Central Services and I would definitely use them again in the future."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Yes, it is generally safe to have a fire pit on a deck, but you must adhere to building codes and take several safety precautions. For both built-in and freestanding models, you must use a heat-resistant barrier, such as a fire pit pad or heat shield, between the pit and the deck. Additionally, consider the weight of the fire pit and ensure your deck can structurally support it, reinforcing it if necessary. The fire pit must also be positioned a safe distance from your house, particularly from materials like vinyl siding, to prevent heat damage.

Yes, and in some cases, frozen ground may improve the digging process for footings due to sturdier conditions. It’s easier than working in muddy conditions, which are more common in the spring. Contractors may use machinery that makes this step a breeze, so harder ground shouldn’t affect the building process.

Most building codes require that railing spindles (also known as balusters) on decks or stairs be spaced no more than four inches apart. This safety standard is often called the '4-inch sphere rule,' which means a sphere with a 4-inch diameter should not be able to pass through the opening between balusters. This rule is in place to prevent small children and pets from slipping through the railing. For the same reason, the space between the bottom rail and the deck or floor surface 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 essential to check your local building codes to ensure compliance before starting your project.

It’s important to make sure the wood on a new deck is properly seasoned. Seasoning a deck is simple: Once you build it (or have a pro do so), just leave it alone so it can acclimate to the environment. If you don’t give the deck proper seasoning time before staining, the stain can lock in any lingering moisture and cause mold, rot, and other moisture issues down the road. Give the wood at least four to eight weeks to season before you stain.

Composite decking boards aren't your only options for building a deck. There are several other types of materials for decks, including wood and aluminum decking. Wood decking comes in many different wood species, offering natural beauty and classy timelessness to your yard. Aluminum is a lightweight, water-resistant, and low-maintenance material that is also non-slip.
