"I highly recommend Pete Jennings! He painted and sealed my pool deck, and the results are incredible—it looks brand new. Pete was professional, efficient, and paid close attention to every detail throughout the entire process. Not only did he do outstanding work, but his pricing was also very reasonable. It’s hard to find someone who combines quality craftsmanship, reliability, and fair pricing, and Pete exceeded my expectations in every way. If you’re looking for someone reliable who takes pride in their work and delivers outstanding results, Pete is the person to call. I couldn’t be happier with how my pool deck turned out!"
"MasterCraft removed a 1.5 inch thick tile/durarock/plywood countertop, installed butcher block countertop with backsplash in one L and another section to a raised height and installed new sink and dishwasher. The countertop needed a new end cap beside the dishwasher. The work is very good quality and neatly (invisibly) caulked at sink and backsplash. The backsplash was cut to height to better fit the existing wall tile. All waste was hauled away and the kitchen left clean of sawdust. They worked me into their schedule in order to have work completed before the date I needed it to be finished."
"When we purchased or home in Palm Coast, Florida, we hired Jason to have it cleaned before we moved in. When we arrived to the house we were absolutely amazed at how great it looked. He took the time to also clean the walkways and driveway for us. We have since hired Pressure Point on two other properties for us and again was extremely impressed with this company. I highly recommend giving them a call. 5 Star ⭐️ service at a very fair price!"
"This is our second time using Mike and his team. Both times his work has been exceptional and professional. He likes to do the job right the first time. He has a competent crew that adds to his ability to do a variety of things. Both times I have hired him he has left the place as clean as possible. We appreciate that. We will be calling him back for future jobs."
"Came out to do an estimate. Hired on the spot and scheduled for the next day. On time, cleaned over 1300 sq ft of concrete driveway and walkway. Excellent job used both wand and surface cleaner"
"Fabtastic! It now looks like it was just put in. It was put in 20 years ago. Pressure washed, sprayed to clean up oxidation of the metal, and repainted!"
"The good tides crew were respectful of my time and property. The build quality was next level and the materials used were not your average big box materials. They used marine grade materials to make sure my framing would last just as long as my composite deck. You could go over the whole deck and not find a bad cut or a misplaced screw."
"Ricky knew exactly what was needed to make a difficult repair on a column at my house. I trust him to repair everything correctly. He is very knowledgeable about many home repairs"
"Webber Backyard Creations designed and built decks, planters, and installed waterfalls in my back and front yard, we couldnâ t be happier! Amazing work of art!"
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.
Trex states that its Trex decking is an eco-friendly composite material made of 95% recycled or reclaimed materials (including plastic and wood), making it a sustainable brand of choice. According to the company, Trex is one of the largest plastic bag recyclers in the U.S., with each 500-square-foot Trex deck containing about 140,000 recycled plastic bags.
There are ways to clean your deck to help maintain a clean appearance. You can easily remove surface-level dirt and grime by wetting your deck with a hose and doing a quick scrub with store-bought deck cleaner monthly.
However, investing in professional deck cleaning services near you at least twice a year is worth it. This service saves you time and ensures that your deck will avoid accidentally becoming scratched by blasting the pressure washer at the wrong angle.
You can add a roof to most decks, but you need to have it inspected first. If your deck didn’t come with a roof initially, it may not be able to handle the weight without some structural changes. You can add additional supports to your existing deck to safely add a roof, and tying your deck’s roof to an exterior wall can help add some structural stability, but remember these aren’t DIY projects and need to be left to a pro.
Most building codes require that spindles or balusters on deck and stair railings be spaced no more than four inches apart. This safety standard, often called the '4-inch sphere rule,' is designed to prevent small children or pets from slipping through the railing. A good way to visualize this is that a 4-inch sphere should not be able to pass between two spindles. For the same safety reason, the space between the bottom rail and the deck floor should also be no more than four inches. As a general guideline, professionals often install three balusters per foot of railing. However, since specific requirements can vary by location, it is crucial to check your local building codes to ensure compliance before starting your project.
