"Not very well. The cost and budget for the project was agreed upon prior to the hiring Ideal. There was not enough time was alloted for the project.. I had to be out there the entire time; if not it would have been worst. 1) All areas to be Weed Whacked were not done. A Banana Tree and Hibiscus shrub were lost during the whacking. 2) The tree limbs on one tree were cut back farther than requested creating/ leaving excess logs, tree limbs and debris at my home which defeats the purpose of cleaning my yard. The tree on the side of the house with the limb hovering over the roof , .the main limb that we discussed and agreed would be removed was not.. I had to move some of the smaller limbs cut from the side of the house. The issue that I have is the contractor created more debris by not following my instruction/ wishes. Although he hauled away some of the logs and debris, I now have allot of debris that I now have to pay someone to haul off my property. If the project had been done as I asked. The debris could have been cut up and taken away by the county. The Pieces left behind were not cut up small enough to do so. I expressed my concerns, Ideal was to come back the following day with a bigger truck to remove the debris for $100. This was a week ago. I don't feel that I should pay to remove debris that would be non-exsistent if he had followed my wishes. They bagged yard waste in black plastic bags that coukd have been put in the paper bags and hauled away by the county. They were planning to leave my home with piles of yard waste left throughout the yard."

Deck Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Before installing a deck, you must build a base for the deck to rest upon, often made of compacted soil or gravel. While gravel is an optional material, it helps with drainage. Some contractors also recommend installing a weed control membrane, which helps provide a solid foundation for the frame. In the case of an elevated deck, a pro will often lay down a concrete slab as a foundation. 

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.

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, it is possible to build a small, basic deck for $5,000, particularly if you use less expensive materials and a simple design. To stay within this budget, consider a size under 10x12 feet and use affordable materials like pressure-treated wood or cedar. While the general cost for deck building ranges from $4,350 to $12,560, with an average around $8,200, some projects can be completed for as little as $4,350. You can also save on labor costs by doing the work yourself, but be aware that mistakes could end up costing more than hiring a professional. A contractor may have a higher upfront cost, but they can ensure a safe, stable deck that will last.

The life expectancy of deck boards varies widely based on the material, climate, and maintenance. Untreated wood boards typically last 10 to 30 years with proper care, while pressure-treated boards can last up to 50 years. Hardwoods generally outlast softwoods. Composite boards also tend to last longer than natural wood. Environmental factors like arid or humid climates can shorten a deck's lifespan. To extend the life of wood decking, it's important to consistently clean and seal it to protect against moisture, UV light, and insects.
