"Brendon arrived on time and did an amazing cleaning job on our roof, which now looks brand new. He also did additional cleaning on our pool cage without charge. He is a very knowledgeable, hardworking and pleasant person whom I would have no hesitation in hiring again due to the high standard of work completed at a very reasonable price."

"We just purchased our home in Venice. We have three oak trees on our property. The gutters around the pool cage were thick with leaves, and when it rained the water was gushing over the edge of the gutters onto our lanai. Alain arrived when he said he would and was very personable. He blew all the leaves off the valleys of our roof, and scooped the debris out of both the gutters and the top of the cage. He checked the rest of the roof and found the down spouts were clogged. He spent a lot of time trying to unclog them. He found that one gutter was clogged with roots coming in from the other end of the downspout. He removed a six feet long coil of roots from the one downspout and a lot of leaves from the other. He felt the gutters had not been cleaned in years. I found him extremely knowledgeable in all things gutters, roofs and power washing. We plan on having him do a regular maintenance program on our gutters."

"Michael did a great job painting the entire interior of the house (walls and ceilings) and even touched up the woodwork though that was not part of the agreement. He also painted the deck. He’s very meticulous and pleasant to work with. I recommend him highly."

"Joe and his team from Island Property Maintenance and Repairs were fantastic from start to finish. Joe was responsive to my needs and was more than willing to quote the job in stages so that I could monitor my budget. I paid the company as the job progressed. Joe sent out a three man team and these men were professional, talented and worked hard all day. They continually checked with me about any issues as they arose. I would highly recommend Island Property Maintenance and Repairs and will definitely use them again for any future projects."

"In 7 worked days the home has been transformed.  The crew worked steadily and followed directions.  Sometimes when you chose the low bidder you worry as the bid is much lower than the competition.  The bids ranged from $4,300 to $5,500 to $6,000 $10,000.  A range of 2.5 times.  We almost went with the $6k bid as we had previous experience with that painter but we are now very glad we did not.  The only issue was attention to detail with the need to point out issues such as small imperfection not repaired.  Not a problem once noted.  We will use them again when we are ready to do the outside.  Thanks Joe.

Deck Repair FAQs, answered by experts

Building codes for deck railings can vary by location, so it's important to consult your local regulations before construction. Generally, a guardrail is required for any deck that is more than 30 inches above the ground.

For residential properties, the standard minimum height for a deck railing is 36 inches. However, some states and municipalities have stricter requirements; for example, California and Washington mandate railings that are at least 42 inches high. Therefore, a 42-inch railing is not considered too high and may be required in your area or chosen voluntarily for additional safety.

In addition to height requirements, codes also specify other safety features, such as the maximum spacing between balusters to ensure they are close enough to prevent a child from squeezing through.

Ultimately, overapplication of stain can compromise the deck's appearance, durability, and longevity. It may result in an uneven finish, with excess stain pooling, dripping, or drying into thick patches. It can also obscure the wood's natural grain and texture, detracting from the desired aesthetic. Moreover, excessive staining may not fully penetrate the wood, leading to poor adhesion and premature wear. Additionally, thick layers of stain are prone to peeling, cracking, and blistering as they struggle to bond with the surface. 

Pressure-treated wood contains preservatives that give the material internal protection from rot and pests. Untreated lumber won’t last more than a few years unless you choose a more expensive wood, like cedar, that naturally stands up well to moisture. Composite decking can outlast wood but is more expensive and doesn’t look as natural. Keep in mind that you’ll need to seal any exterior wood product to protect it from the elements and other forms of external damage.

In many areas, a floating deck that isn’t connected to your home and stays under 200 square feet and below 30 inches in height may not need a permit. These freestanding structures are often considered low-risk, which can simplify the building process. However, building codes vary greatly based on location. Before investing in any home improvement project, check with your local permitting office for deck-building guidelines.

Yes, you can build a pool deck yourself, but it takes precision, a lot of time, and many specific tools. You’ll need to create a deck plan, be careful with measurements, cut each piece of wood, secure the pieces properly, and ensure the deck meets building codes. Building a deck around a pool is a rewarding DIY, but it’s time- and labor-intensive, so thoughtfully consider your abilities and the time you have before embarking on this DIY.
