"While the worker did a good job on the screens they were told in advance that the pool deck had been recently painted and it did not need to be cleaned. They explained to me their process of starting on the outside of the enclosure to spray a treatment and then come inside to complete. After that they would clean the pool deck. 
Again I told them that the deck didn't need to be cleaned just rinsed off and to take care of the paint which was only 2 weeks old. At the end of the service when they asked me about the service the screens were clean and no issues but most of my deck had scratches in it and sections where the paint had been rubbed off because of the furniture being drug across it instead of just picking it up. Nothing is so heavy it couldn't be picked up by one person. It was just pushed around or moved by the person pulling the hoses around.
Not happy I now have to have my decked paint patched up."

"It did not go well and I won’t be using them again.  When I saw the low quality of their work and that they didn’t have the right equipment needed, I decided I wouldn’t use them again.  The price was good but not for the quality I received.  I had them pressure wash around the pool and the two people that came out took quite a long time to do so."

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

When staining a deck, don’t skip surface prep, avoid staining damp or dirty boards, and don’t apply stain in extreme heat, cold, or wet conditions. Never overload the wood with a stain, as too much can cause tackiness or peeling. Also, don’t forget to test a small area first to ensure the color and finish look right.

Most building codes require that railing spindles (also known as balusters) on decks or stairs be spaced no more than four inches apart. This safety standard is often called the '4-inch sphere rule,' which means a sphere with a 4-inch diameter should not be able to pass through the opening between balusters. This rule is in place to prevent small children and pets from slipping through the railing. For the same reason, the space between the bottom rail and the deck or floor surface 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 essential to check your local building codes to ensure compliance before starting your project.

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.

Expect to spend around $10,000 to $11,000 to replace a 20-by-20-foot deck. Using high-end materials like composite or exotic hardwoods can drive up the cost, as can custom features and design elements. You can also expect to pay more than average if your deck replacement requires a site evaluation or if you need the work done during the busy season.

The cost to repair a deck is between $900 and $3,500, depending on the cause and extent of the damage. For example, fixing a sinking deck caused by pest damage can cost between $200 and $600, while replacing sinking boards costs between $500 and $4,000.
