"I highly recommend Pete Jennings! He painted and sealed my pool deck, and the results are incredible—it looks brand new. Pete was professional, efficient, and paid close attention to every detail throughout the entire process. Not only did he do outstanding work, but his pricing was also very reasonable. It’s hard to find someone who combines quality craftsmanship, reliability, and fair pricing, and Pete exceeded my expectations in every way. If you’re looking for someone reliable who takes pride in their work and delivers outstanding results, Pete is the person to call. I couldn’t be happier with how my pool deck turned out!"

"From the first contact on Angie's List to the follow up calls and service, everything was handled quickly and professionally. We were able to schedule same day service due to their existing schedule. The technician was extremely courteous and went out of his way to clarify when my directions were otherwise confusing. The house, deck and drive all look like new!!"

"Very well. We had a number of projects that we needed done, both interior and exterior. Joe arrived on time on the day we scheduled to go over what was needed and on the days he was working at our home. He did repairs on fences including painting, replaced a deadbolt lock, did interior and exterior painting and some repair work on ceilings including repainting. He also installed exterior floodlights on existing electrical boxes, rebuilt and reinstalled a storm-damaged wood shutter and worked on several interior doors that were not working satisfactorily. Joe works steadily and efficiently getting more done each day than I would have ever thought possible. He cleaned up all areas that he worked in and removed all debris from the premises. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND Joe for “handyman” jobs. He seems willing to tackle most anything but told me up front that he doesn’t do plumbing."

"Everything went better than expected! We were out of town while the house was painted so it was a wonderful surprise to come home and see such a great job. All the corners were clean, lines were straight, no drips on the concrete, no trash, no cigarette butts in the yard and they even brought their own trash cans. We're actually having them come back to paint/stain the deck, railing and stairs once the wood dries out. This is been a second home project for us."

"Kenny provided the roof repair service. He promptly telephoned me after I purchased the offer and immediately came out to check the condition of the roof. Kenny explained everything in great detail and I accepted his repair offer. I really appreciated his work. He was punctual, friendly and professional. I highly recommend him."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Local building codes don’t specify the number of steps a deck can have before a railing is required, mainly because stair height varies widely. Most areas require decks 30 inches or higher to have a railing. While not exact, that roughly equates to four to seven steps.

For a 12x20-foot (240-square-foot) deck, you can expect to pay between $7,200 and $14,400. This cost is based on a general price of $30 to $60 per square foot. The final price will depend on factors such as the decking material, design complexity, deck type, location, and local labor costs. Keep in mind that add-ons will increase the total; for example, adding an under-deck drainage system to a deck of this size could cost an additional $7,700.

The best direction for a gate to swing depends on its location and purpose, but swinging inward is the general rule. An inward swing is often considered safer, prevents the gate from opening into public spaces like a sidewalk, and may be required by local building codes.

There are exceptions and specific considerations. If your property is on a slope, an inward swing might not be possible. For a deck gate, it's safest to have it swing away from any steps. In a backyard, the direction can be a matter of preference, though an inward swing can be helpful when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.

Regardless of direction, ensure the gate can open fully without hitting any objects or blocking spaces. While an inward swing is standard, a gate that can swing both in and out offers the most flexibility if your setup allows for it.

Deck stairs should have at least three stringers rather than two. The recommended minimum width for stairs is 36 inches, and the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors recommends at least three cut stringers to provide sufficient support on wood decking stairs of this width. Generally, stringers should be a maximum of 16 inches apart for wood decking and 12 inches apart for more flexible composite decking.

The proper height for a stair riser or deck step is between four and seven inches, with seven inches often considered the most comfortable. Building your stairs to this height ensures a strain-free step position and minimizes the risk of trip and fall injuries. For optimal safety and comfort, especially on deck stairs, a rise of around seven inches should be paired with a tread depth (or run) of at least 10 to 12 inches. While it is possible to design stairs with risers up to 12 inches, this height can be challenging for children, pets, or individuals with mobility issues. Always check with your local building codes, as they may mandate specific dimensions that differ from these general recommendations.
