"Superbly professional Service. I would definitely hire again the guys are very polite, and have a good work ethic. If I could post a before and after picture here of how nice my driveway looks now, you’d be impressed too. I also hired them to do my pool area and it came out fantastic. May have them repaint the house when I get a chance."

"Extreme Maintenance was one of three companies I contacted for solution and quote for a drainage problem and washout between our house and next door neighbor’s. Michael called me back same day and came by the next day to look at the area and provided a sensible solution as well as a verbal quote. He even cleared and redirected a malfunctioning sprinkler head while here! The written quote came via email that evening. After two other companies looked at the area and offered suggestions, I felt Michael had the best handle on a solution and accepted his quote. He called me back right away, then came by to finalize details and set date for job (one-day job), which was Monday of following week. Because of rain delays job was actually done on Thursday, but Michael kept me updated along the way. He and his team came by on Thursday and completed job same day. They cleared away old lava rock and old plastic sheeting beneath it. Then, they back-filled a 6’ x 4’ x 1’ washout beneath our neighbor’s sidewalk, hand dug an 80 ft. long trench, laid drainage tubing along the length of the trench to funnel water to the swale behind the houses. Then, they covered the drain tube with filter cloth and topped with rock and cleaned up the work area beautifully. He called me out a couple of times during their work to show me what was being done and explained why. After completion, we walked the whole area to be sure all was to my satisfaction. It was! Late Friday afternoon, we noticed that a stationary irrigation head that was right in the path of the workers had been broken during the work. I called Michel that evening and he returned my call Saturday morning to say he would be by on Tuesday morning to repair (he was out of town for the weekend). True to his word, he was there on Tuesday morning and made the repair. He also repaired another malfunctioning irrigation head (nothing to do with his team) while there and advised us that we should look into some other maintenance issues with the irrigation system before they caused some major problems. I am very pleased with the whole project, from start to finish. Michael was knowledgeable about a solution to our problem, offered a fair quote, completed the job beautifully and within reasonable time. He was great at keeping me informed of anything effecting the job and provided great advice/warning about potential problems with the irrigation system. For anyone who needs a maintenance/installation job done, I recommend Extreme Maintenance!"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Decks are generally more expensive to build because they require elevating and railings. The difference between decks and patios is that decks are elevated, while patios are usually on the ground level. Plus, decks are usually made of wood and need more maintenance than most patios. However, decks and patios serve the same purpose, providing outdoor space for you to enjoy.

Yes, deck pier blocks can be used as an alternative to traditional deck footings, particularly for small or low-to-the-ground decks. Unlike poured concrete and buried post footings, deck blocks don’t require digging or pouring. However, their use is regulated by local building codes, and they may not be permitted in areas prone to high winds, earthquakes, or hurricanes. Always consult your local building codes before choosing them for your deck project.

Covering your deck with a breathable tarp can protect it from snow, ice, and cold winter temperatures. This is a good winterizing solution if you don’t plan to use your deck at all during the colder months. However, it might be best to skip the tarp if you’ll still be walking on your deck or using it in a limited capacity.

Ideally, a gate should be able to swing both in and out. However, if it can only open in one direction, it is generally best for it to swing inward. This is often the safest option, especially for deck gates near steps, as you'll want the gate to swing away from the stairs. An inward swing also prevents the gate from opening into a public space, like a sidewalk, and can be more convenient when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.

There are exceptions, however. The layout of your property may require a different approach. For example, if your property is on a slope, the gate may not be able to swing inward. You should also ensure the gate can open fully without colliding with any objects or blocking access to other areas. For a backyard garden gate where public access isn't a concern, the direction it swings is largely a matter of personal preference. Finally, always check your local building codes, as they may have specific requirements for which way a gate must swing.

A quality, well-maintained PVC decking can last 30 to 50 years. It’s known for being one of the most durable types of decking materials, with composite decking having a 25- to 30-year average lifespan and some softwood deckings only lasting 10 to 15 years. Luxury hardwood decks like Ipe may last longer than PVC decking, but they can cost more and require more maintenance.
