"My husband and I are absolutely thrilled with the work performed by this company! Their workmanship is excellent and their work and materials were reasonably priced. We had a significant amount of deck/patio to cover and the work was started and completed on time. The installers were very professional and cleaned up after the work was completed. We thought Jaydel and his crew were great. We enjoyed working with Ira, the owner of the company. He is very knowledgeable and was terrific at pointing out the important aspects of installing pavers. His company offered a huge selection of materials from which to choose. We would definitely hire this company again and highly recommend their work."

"I was extremely please with the job that was completed. The exterior of my house looks great. Dennis and his crew were professional and courteous. Even as they were at removing the existing siding, gutter, etc., they always cleaned up before leaving for the day. I appreciated this especially because this was not just a one day job. They answered all my questions and kept me in the loop throughout the whole process. I plan on using this company again for some projects inside my house. Would recommend them to others."

"I phoned the company at approx. 7.15 pm on Tuesday evening last week expecting to leave a message for a return calls the next day; Tim answered the phone while he was out running! He asked if he could call me back within the hour and trues to his word he did. My wife and I are selling our house (under contract) and the only item from the appraisal that needed addressing was to replace the back service door and frame in our garage. We knew we need to get this done ASAP to avoid possible delays in the closing date. Initially Tim explained on his return call that he probably could not fit us into his schedule for a couple of months, so back to Angie's list we went looking for someone else. But, within half an hour of his call Tim phoned me back to say that he had managed to juggle a few things and could fix our door in a couple of days. Tim & Ryan arrived on Friday morning and took care of the job at hand; they were punctual, professional, courteous and extremely thorough in their work and also left the area of my garage cleaner than it was when they arrived to do the work. The finished product looks outstanding. I cannot express our gratitude strongly enough to Tim, Ryan and Maintenance Rescue LLC for digging us out of what could have developed into a very long wait in a very big hole! These guys are awesome and I have already consulted them for doing some work in our new house."

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

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.

Composite decking requires a solid foundation, substructure, or subframe to ensure stability. This base is typically composed of posts, beams, joists, and footings. The frame's joists can be built from various materials like composite, plastic, timber, or metal, as long as the base can support the deck's weight without shifting. A professional deck builder might recommend installing the frame on a solid concrete base for added durability. The final design and materials for the substructure will depend on your budget, the type of deck, and environmental conditions.

In most cases, sanding an old deck before staining it is necessary to achieve a decent finish. If your old deck has a relatively new stain finish on it and you're only doing touch-ups, you can generally skip the sanding part. However, if your goal is to make the deck look and function better, sanding first is a must. 

DIY staining or painting is manageable with proper preparation, including safety measures, necessary tools, and adherence to safe weather conditions for application.

To maximize the utility of space under a deck, it’s important to keep this area dry and clean. One way to prevent the area from becoming too wet is to install an under-deck draining system. This affordable home upgrade channels water away from the deck and provides usable space for storage or a functional area below a second-story deck. Not only will this be a useful maintenance upgrade, it can boost your home’s property value.
