"I needed rotting wood right under a glass block window surrounded by vinyl siding replaced. Joseph was punctual in meeting me at my house to discuss the details of the work. He promptly gave me a reasonable and very competitive quote, so I hired him. He arrived early in the morning at the agreed-upon date and time and meticulously completed the job in one working day. He carefully removed the existing siding, replaced the rotten wood frame under the glass blocks along with new studs, installed new metal flashing and new vapor barrier, and put the siding back on right with caulk. I was out of town during the time he did this work, and so he sent me pictures of the job. Several contractors did not want to touch this work because they considered it to be a little more on the complex side, but Joseph did it and did a great job. I 100%, highly recommend him for your simple and even more complex handyman jobs."

"Well, I have to say, as long as we keep the lawn watered, our yard is the greenest in the neighborhood. However, we never seem to rid ourselves of all weeds. Bug Out also takes care of our pest control

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

When sourced responsibly, the most sustainable wood decking options are timber trees like redwood, pine, Douglas fir, Nootka cypress, and Western red cedar. These tree species are fast-growing with low carbon emissions. Plus, most timber woods make durable deck materials because of their resistance to rot and decay over time. 

The problems with composite decking include a high rate of expansion and contraction from temperature swings. This characteristic can cause boards to split, delaminate, or peel. In addition, significant movement can cause shrinking, warping, twisting, and bending. For this reason, you should minimize moisture and ensure proper airflow below your deck.

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. 

Composite decking is the best material for individuals living with disabilities who want to age in place. The material is anti-slip, which increases safety throughout the year. It’s also highly durable and requires minimal maintenance, so it doesn’t add another item to the individual’s to-do list. It’s also a good option for improving wheelchair accessibility at home, as it can easily manage a wheelchair ramp.

There are several perks to building a deck around your inground or above-ground pool. Specifically, building a deck around a pool gives you space to lounge and sunbathe, easy access to monitor kids in the pool, extra room for entertaining and dining, an anti-slip surface for post-pool fun, and enhanced aesthetics.
