"The owner, Ben, did an outstanding job cleaning our residential windows (his company also does commercial window cleaning). To date we have used him twice. Sea-Thru Window Cleaning communicates very well with their customers - before, during and after. The result is appointments are kept and reminders for future cleanings are provided. I highly recommend Sea-Thru Window Cleaning - you will be amazed of the results."

"Clean Power Wash LLC does a fabulous job of Gutter and Downspout cleaning. They stay in touch twice a year to see what I need, they are friendly, professional and get the job done leaving your place as they found it. They also have great rates from all the research I have done. Thanks to Rob and his crew, our Condo will continue to use Clean Power Wash for our cleaning needs. -- Lynne R"

"This is the second time I have used Tolbert & Sons and, once again, I was completely pleased with their work. Chris is honest, gives fair estimates, keeps his word, is patient, and his crew has the same values as Chris. Their work is first rate--absolutely beautiful! Their prep and paint quality are outstanding, as well. Chris and his team are pleasant, respectful, cause the absolute minimum of disruption, and they clean up at the end of each day. Their goal is to have a happy client--and they succeed!. When I was at work and when I was out of town, I had no worries at all about having Tolbert & Sons painters in my house. I will definitely use them again!"

Deck Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Most building codes list a minimum width of 36 inches and a maximum height of 7¾ inches. However, for the most comfort and spaciousness, you’ll want to aim for a width of at least 48 inches and a height of 7 inches. Again, it’s always a good idea to base your numbers off steps that you already use comfortably.

Building a deck without a permit could lead to fines for both the homeowner and the contractor. The exact penalties will depend on your state and municipal building laws. You might also be required to remove the deck and apply for a permit before you can build another. While it might be tempting to skip the permit to save a few bucks, it’ll cost you much more if you’re caught.

To flatten a cupped deck board, start by ensuring it’s dry. Then, try flipping the board over so the cupped side faces down and reattach it. If that’s not possible, you can use screws to pull it tighter to the joists or plane the edges slightly to reduce the cup. It’s best to replace severely cupped boards.

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.

Deck skirting shouldn’t touch the ground, especially if you have a wood deck, which is vulnerable to moisture. Ideally, you should leave at least 3/4 of an inch of space between the deck skirting and the ground for more ventilation. Pros also recommend that you incorporate about 1 square foot of space for ventilation for the underside of the deck to every 150 square feet of decking. Proper ventilation prevents mold growth and rot that can damage your deck.
