Q: Does pressure-treated wood have problems with rot?

• <div><p>Will pressure-treated wood rot? This wood could eventually suffer from rot, although it takes longer compared to untreated wood. Even though the chemicals applied to pressure-treated wood protect it, they eventually dissipate and leave the wood vulnerable. You can delay the appearance of rot in the treated wood by reducing its direct exposure to moisture and by painting it. Using fewer screws or nails in the wood&mdash;and thereby creating fewer holes in it&mdash;also delays the chances of rot forming.</p></div>

Q: What are some ways to keep porch posts from rotting?

• <div><p>The main cause of a rotting porch post is prolonged exposure to moisture. So, the best way to prevent rot is to eliminate and guard against moisture.</p><ul><li><p>Use wood caulk to seal any cracks, openings, or areas along the post where water is likely to pool.</p></li><li><p>Secure porch posts into concrete, if possible.</p></li><li><p>Cover wooden posts with protective sleeves or wraps, often made of vinyl.</p></li><li><p>Install metal post anchors for extra support.</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: Should you nail or screw deck boards?

• <div><p>You can either nail or screw deck boards according to your preference. We recommend using 3-inch galvanized deck screws in this guide because screws offer superior holding powder over time. If you&rsquo;re using screws, you can minimize the risk of cracking the boards by drilling small pilot holes before securing the boards to the deck joists. </p></div>

Q: What ruins composite decking?

• <div><p>Although composite decking is extremely durable, it&rsquo;s also susceptible to extreme heat. Prolonged exposure to sunlight can cause fading, warping, and cracking. Composite also retains heat more than wood, which makes it dangerous to walk on in the summer. You can help prevent heat damage by only building with composite in shaded areas or using rugs to cover the hottest spots. </p></div>

Q: Can I use a snow blower on a deck or patio?

• <div><p>Yes, but it works best with lightweight snowblowers, the single-stage models or electric versions. Also, you need to have a rubberized intake edge on the ground and preferably rubberized auger paddles, not a metal version. Otherwise you may chip or damage the surface as you work. When it doubt, let the snow lie.</p><p>You can also use a snow blower on leveled gravel, but only if you carefully adjust the intake height so it doesn&rsquo;t kick up the gravel and turn it into flying missiles.</p></div>

They repaired a busted pipe in the backyard but deleted my hose spigot. I contacted them to fix the issue but they wanted to charge me to add the hose spigot back like it was before. I paid $437.86 for the repair

The repair included parts and labor and the work on fuses. The shimmy is gone. The car starts without needing to pump the gas. I have used Roberts for several years and find them to be honest in their dealings with the public and they will not do a repair if it's not needed.
