"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."

"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 !

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Two coats of stain are ideal for the best protection and aesthetic appeal. However, if your decking is made of particularly dense hardwood, you may only need one coat. If you want an intense color, two coats are ideal.

Floating decks are a cost-effective and versatile option, but they come with some compromises. Since they sit on smaller footings instead of being deeply anchored, they’re more likely to shift over time, especially in areas with heavy rainfall or freeze-thaw conditions. Their low-to-the-ground design makes them more susceptible to moisture buildup and potential water damage.

The time to build a vinyl deck varies based on factors like size, the complexity of the design, and weather conditions. Generally, a straightforward project might take a few days to a couple of weeks for preparation, installation, and any necessary inspections. However, larger or more intricate designs may extend the timeline. Timely acquisition of permits, efficient planning, and coordination with contractors will all help to make the construction process as smooth and quick as possible.

Composite decking may never warp, or it may warp quickly. Several factors can influence the rate of warping, including the material's quality, installation method, and installation location. Generally speaking, high-quality materials that have been installed properly are drastically less prone to warping.

With proper installation and maintenance, a vinyl deck can last up to 30 years. Factors like regular cleaning, minimal wear and tear, proper installation, and the use of higher-grade materials can extend its durability. However, extreme weather conditions or neglecting maintenance might shorten its lifespan. Adhering to manufacturer recommendations for care and occasional inspections can significantly prolong a vinyl deck's longevity.
