"Luke was a gift! He responded quickly to my call and was able to start painting two days later. He was professional, knowledgeable, on time and always cognizant of the fact that I was working from home while he was painting. He meticulously painted my entire house and it looks amazing. I highly recommend Luke, you will not be disappointed."

"Everything went better than expected. Price was very reasonable and work I believe was much better quality than others offered. We had back porch enclosed and screened in, they came up with variety of options. The workmanship was excellent and communication with me as the work progressed was in a timely manner, especially with a few weather delays. They followed up in a few days and came back out to inspect again and also followed up with roof repair. Roof also was inspected and repaired without the hassle of tearing up material to find the leak. Discovered flashing just needed repairing. Told crew I would call them again for future projects and repairs if needed. Would highly recommend Bear Hands Construction, LLC hands down to anyone."

"We contacted Hooks Remodeling & Repair to do a list of items that needed to be done around our home. Some items we had been able to do in the past but physically are unable to do any longer. The biggest item was to paint the exterior of the house, including replacing some siding boards; painting some rooms in the interior as well as all of the interior trim (and there is a lot). Other things were: fix an outside Florida room door that would not close anymore (in order for it to close we had to use the deadblock lock. Once we used that, then we couldn't get the door open); clean and restain the deck which included replacing some boards; clean all the gutters; replace two bathroom faucets;replace a kitchen faucet; replace a light above the kitchen sink; and repaint our front door.Eric was prompt in coming to the house to provide an estimate. He walked around the house with me & pointed out the areas that he felt needed extra attention. We agreed to the price which included everything he was going to need.to complete the job (except faucets & lighting). Other companies I had to get all the supplies and this was not a chore I wanted to take on. I prefer the contractor get the items they need. That way I know they have the right items. I picked out the paint colors & just gave him the brand & numbers.We were going to be out of town when they needed to start the job. He had a lockbox (like realtors) and came in & started the job while we were away. This was a big help. They moved all of the furniture & put it back when they finished. Any pictures or other items they moved were also put back (even upside down like I had them - now that is paying attention to detail) I could find no paint splatters or drops anywhere inside so either they are VERY good or do a great job of cleaning up.When they moved to the outside, they did a lot of prep work and a great paint job. Eric even made some suggestios that turned out to be great and made a big difference. The pressure wash they did on the house almost made the house look good enough not to have to paint (but we did). I think he may think twice the next time someone wants to re-paint their front door red though. ha ha. They were very punctual and Eric kept me updated as to everything he was doing & when. His workers were very polite & professional. Everyday before they left they cleaned up and put their supplies away neatly. We only had one sort of blip of the entire job and it was a misunderstanding and was taken care of promptly and professionally and it turned out just fine. I am very pleased with all of the work that Eric & his crew did. In my mind it was a lot & they got it completed right on time. I love driving into my driveway and admiring the work. I would highly recommend Hooks Remodeling & Repair to anyone needing just about anything done. If there was a little something that Eric saw that needing doing he did it. I had a problem with my disposal one day and he fixed it in about a minute. I have had other repairmen in my home over the 10 years we have lived there & I can not in sincerity say the same thing about most of them.Thank you Ericeplace"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

PVC decking might be long-lasting, but this synthetic material lacks​​ the natural aesthetic or sustainability of wood decking. If you want to match your decking to your new garden furniture or just freshen up the faded surface, it’s not usually possible to paint PVC decking. When comparing PVC to composite decking, PVC is pricier and more prone to warping in hot regions.

Floating decks are a cost-effective and versatile option, but they come with some compromises. Since they sit on smaller footings instead of being deeply anchored, they’re more likely to shift over time, especially in areas with heavy rainfall or freeze-thaw conditions. Their low-to-the-ground design makes them more susceptible to moisture buildup and potential water damage.

While you can use various materials like sand or even just soil, gravel is widely considered the best option to put under a deck. It provides excellent drainage and is resistant to water, fire, and pests. Gravel also helps anchor the soil to prevent erosion during heavy rain and acts as a built-in weed blocker, reducing regular upkeep. Furthermore, it is simple to spread, available in various textures and tones, and adds a polished look that complements any deck design.

A deck that isn’t attached to a house is called a floating or freestanding deck. These standalone decks are built near ground level, so they usually don’t need deck stairs. Some don’t even require permits. Generally speaking, building a floating deck is faster and more DIY-friendly than constructing one that’s connected to your home.

To flatten a cupped deck board, start by ensuring it’s dry. Then, try flipping the board over so the cupped side faces down and reattach it. If that’s not possible, you can use screws to pull it tighter to the joists or plane the edges slightly to reduce the cup. It’s best to replace severely cupped boards.
