"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."

"Nelson, came to my home last night to power wash my back porch, which has composite decking on it. Nelson went above and beyond, very personable, very thorough, the cost was good and I am so pleased. I would recommend this man in a heartbeat. Nelson was his first name and he is a beacon Falls resident and I know who will be power washing from now on at my house. Thank you so so much."

"This pro did an outstanding job clearing my driveway. He made a path to my oil refill without my asking..and I was very glad! He spread salt too. The only problem was that he came 2 days after the storm; my son missed two days of work because the snow was so deep. I am a new customer and will give this company another chance to clear us out in a more timely manner. I am grateful for their attention to my rather long driveway!"

Customers say: Quick response

"Have used A1 Painting for 2 jobs so far. First job was a pretty large area inside my home - stairway, halls, bedroom and a small computer room. John and team did a great job. started on time and ended on time. No issues. I asked 5 suppliers to bid, all 5 looked at the job but only 3 came back with a price. John's was the lowest bid and he gave me the earliest start date. 2nd job was a rush - just a chimney on the outside of my home which was peeling and needed to get done for a refi - once again, John came through - gave me a reasonable quote and job date. I now have the best looking chimney in the 'hood! Kelly did the work for the chimney and exceeded expectations - sealed the concrete to prevent water from getting in and creating more peeling. Highly recommend!"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

The best way to sand a deck is by cleaning it, sanding the boards and stairs with 60- or 80-grit sandpaper, and sanding the railings and posts with 80-grit sandpaper. You should sand in the direction of the wood grain to avoid damaging the timber. When sanding your deck, use medium pressure and aim for an even sand. Pressing too hard with a sander can damage decks, as most are softwoods.

Before installing a deck, you must build a base for the deck to rest upon, often made of compacted soil or gravel. While gravel is an optional material, it helps with drainage. Some contractors also recommend installing a weed control membrane, which helps provide a solid foundation for the frame. In the case of an elevated deck, a pro will often lay down a concrete slab as a foundation. 

While experienced DIYers may take on the challenge, hiring a licensed professional is often the best route, especially for larger or elevated structures. A local deck contractor is typically the best pro for the job, as they have specialized experience and are knowledgeable about local building codes, ensuring your deck is built safely and designed to last. Other professionals who can build a deck include general contractors and carpenters, who may be more readily available in some regions.

It's okay to walk on a newly painted deck after about four to six hours as long as the weather has been dry. Be sure to wait at least 24 hours before you place any outdoor furniture or grills on a freshly painted deck, though.

A covered deck can be a good investment that increases your home value—especially if you live in a hot region with a lot of sun. A covering over the deck means you can get more use out of it, even on the hottest summer days. With a permanent deck covering, you can even add ceiling fans to help cool down your deck for added comfort.
