"He offered to powerwash my house, gutter edges, concrete floor of front porch for $250. He also wanted to show me how my deck would look if he powerwashed it, too, and actually powerwashed the entire thing. I asked him how much did it cost to powerwash the deck and he said, no worry, if I wanted to add something it was up to me. He was alone doing this all himself and stopped only to change nozzles and attachments. He powerwashed my house, trim, the porch floor, a plastic shed that had green algae on it, my deck, walk, and another concrete pad that I put my trash cans on. He also got on my roof and removed some fallen limbs and leaves that collected in recesses. I wrote him a check for $400 and still wasn't sure I gave him what he earned, he did that great a job. I plan to hire him again."

"Leonard expertly repaired my slate walks and patio that had lifted and settled over time. The process included power washing the stones, laying and leveling fresh stone dust, then replacing the stone -- including replacing those that had broken. The pricing was fair and the work outstanding. I will use Leonard again and recommend him to friends and neighbors."

"Pre-treatment (mostly bleach, which leaves a putrid smell for days) left stains on my deck furniture (table, chairs, umbrella, glider, grill cover, and lounge chairs). This could have been avoided if items had been covered properly or removed. The power washing job itself on my deck and rails was satisfactory."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

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.

No, you don’t need a permit to repair and replace a few boards on an existing deck. However, if you’re making structural changes to the deck or tearing down the old one and building a new one, you will likely need a permit. Check with your local municipality for the regulations and rules in your area, or ask a local contractor who builds decks for advice.

Pavers are a great decking option for pools. They’re customizable, come in a variety of shapes, sizes, colors, textures, materials, and price points, and they’re slip-resistant. Concrete pool decks, on the other hand, are harder to repair and replace if damaged and aren’t as slip-resistant as most paver materials. However, not all pavers are equal in terms of durability, maintenance, and performance. Pavers also have their own cons that may encourage homeowners to opt for stamped concrete instead, such as higher upfront costs.

Decks require several inspections during and after the building process, but the specifics vary depending on where you live. Most areas mandate that decks comply with local building codes and safety regulations for the foundation, framing, and structure. Some pros recommend a footing inspection, which verifies the depth, width, and location of the various footings to ensure they offer enough foundational support.

Your deck may look or feel fuzzy after pressure washing because the high-pressure spray tears some wood fibers as it removes the outer layer of dead and discolored wood. This fuzzy effect is a normal part of the pressure-washing process and will go away on its own in a few weeks. You can opt to spot-sand your deck if you’d like to remove it more quickly.
