Customers say: Quick response

"I had Sam paint two porches, one concrete front porch that needed significant prep work (power washing and etching) and the other a wooden side porch. Sam responded immediately to my job request and came out the same day to do the estimate. The price was very competitive, and Sam did a great job evaluating what we needed to do and explaining his recommendations and all the details of the process. He did the job over the weekend and it is exactly what we needed--fresh and clean and ready for the fall. I would definitely hire him again."

"Harley painting did an excellent job, and everything went very smoothly. I didnt have to do much of anything except pick the color and the paint, and Joe and his team didnt need any prodding or oversight like many contractors do. I would highly recommend Joe and his team."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Some elevated decks require stairs that lead to the ground level per the local fire codes in some municipalities. In other regions, a staircase is an optional feature that can increase accessibility and convenience for homeowners who want ground-level access to their deck. Additionally, a staircase is necessary if your home doesn't have an existing door leading to the deck.

For the best results, stay off of your deck for at least 48 hours after sealing it. Giving the sealant at least two full days to cure ensures it can fully penetrate the wood, giving you the most protection from sun and weather damage later on. Walking on the deck too soon can prevent it from properly curing and cause your deck to weather prematurely.

Yes, you can build a deck around a fire pit, as long as it is safely enclosed, meets code requirements, and is at least 15 feet away from your home. You’ll want to ensure you have a heat-resistant barrier between the fire pit and your deck to prevent any structural damage and fires. A galvanized ring surrounded by pavers, brick, or stone makes for a beautiful, safe, and sturdy design.

No, your deck will not rot under artificial grass as long as it is installed properly. When installed correctly, the artificial grass features a drainage system that prevents rotting. Simply laying artificial grass on top of the decking without proper installation will not lead to an effective drainage system that prevents rotting.

While eco-friendly decking, also called composite decking, is a win for the environment because it consists of recycled materials, it has trade-offs. These sustainable options often come with steeper price tags, lack natural wood's warm look, and can become uncomfortably hot under full sun. Some composite materials can also become slick when wet, posing a potential hazard.
