"I was very pleased with the work Bill and his crew did. All were very pleasant and professional. They were able to do a final cleanup from over the winter, removing all sticks and leaves. Following that They weeded, raked, installed edging, applied and spread mulch. Did a final cleanup of the mulch, driveway and walk areas before leaving. Very happy with the job they did. I would recommend this company and I would hire them again."

"The 2 gentleman, his staff; did most of the work. They covered everything with plastic. I had moved my furniture out of my bedroom. I was very pleased that the dust was limited. They came each day early. They took very little time off, and worked 8-4 pm. They did come 1 Saturday to do some work. When they were finished, they made sure I had a pathway in my house that was uncovered to walk around. I had a very good rapor with the staff (a father & son team). The owner, Chris kept in touch by phone and stopped by to make sure things were done the way he wanted. I was very pleased with the work they did!"

"It had been some time since my gutters were properly maintained, and I needed not only to have my gutters cleaned, but also have any necessary repairs made.

I was looking for a service provider who was local to my area and able to respond in a timely, professional manner.
After taking some time searching out and contacting a few cleaning and repair services to compare prices, availability, and service level, once I spoke with owner/operator Vinnie Squitieri of V & C Gutter Cleaning and Repair I felt confident that this would be the provider I needed owing to his enthusiasm, experience, and stated commitment to do the work with the care and integrity that I desired.

I was pleasantly surprised by the courteous manner in which the entire job was handled from start to finish, as well as the professional and courteous demeanor that was exuded throughout the entire process.

When the work was completed time was taken to point out what was done relative to the cleaning and the repair.
The job was done in a maticulous manner; all debris and material was properly disposed of and the result was not only a more asthetically pleasing appearance, but also the peace of mind I was left with assured of the greater efficiency of the gutters around my home.

Thank you V & C !

"They did a great job at a reasonable price! They came on time, and were very careful about my items and landscaping as they were washing. The house had a lot of mildew on the siding, but after they washed it, it came out crystal clean. The concrete walkway looks great, as does the fence. They were very careful on my composite decking to make sure there were no streaks and it came out perfect, back to the original gray color like the day it was installed. The job was done quickly and well. They are very courteous. I would highly recommend them."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Constant exposure to inclement weather conditions can damage your deck, causing it to fade, warp, or crack over time. Regular maintenance keeps it looking and performing its best. That means giving it a good cleaning and applying a quality sealant or wood treatment to help defend against moisture, sun damage, and everyday wear.

The problems with composite decking include a high rate of expansion and contraction from temperature swings. This characteristic can cause boards to split, delaminate, or peel. In addition, significant movement can cause shrinking, warping, twisting, and bending. For this reason, you should minimize moisture and ensure proper airflow below your deck.

You should refinish your deck to maintain its appearance, durability, and longevity. Refinishing your deck protects the wood from foot traffic and the elements. It also helps extend its life span by keeping rot, mildew, and termites at bay. By maintaining your deck, you can avoid the cost of replacing your deck sooner. A refinished deck also looks great and restores some of its original beauty.

Cutting the boards directly is one of the fastest ways to remove deck boards with hidden fasteners. Mark two parallel lines that are one-third of the total measurement on both ends and cut out the centerpiece. Then, remove the end of the board that doesn’t have a fastener. Finally, pry open the fastened side and pull it up to pop out the screw or access the fastener. This also allows you to salvage portions of boards for other projects.

When staining a deck, don’t skip surface prep, avoid staining damp or dirty boards, and don’t apply stain in extreme heat, cold, or wet conditions. Never overload the wood with a stain, as too much can cause tackiness or peeling. Also, don’t forget to test a small area first to ensure the color and finish look right.
