"Perfect. We have used Mr. Handy Man on four occasions to service a variety of needs: outside lights, outside light fixtures, water lines, roofing, dryer vent modification, room fan replacements, vanity replacement and inside lights. The company doesn't skip a beat from scheduling, arrivals, accomplishment of service, clean up and invoicing. They don't bring coffee and bagels."

"Very reasonable operation. Marcio quoted the job and told me the date he would come out and pressure wash and then a couple of days later, stain my pergola. He was very timely, kept his site clean, taped everything that didn’t need to get stain on it and laid cloths for deck tile. Quick clean up and very helpful in deciding stain color. Much appreciated. Will use again."

"This professional did a wonderful job. I wanted my deck thoroughly repaired and provided specific instructions, and everything was followed to the letter. He arrived on time, worked extremely hard, and paid attention to every detail. In fact, He worked harder than I have ever seen anyone work in my home. She stayed until everything that needed attention was taken care of. I truly appreciate the effort and professionalism. The work was excellent, and my house looks great. I highly recommend her services."

"We are very happy with the work.  The men worked hard over two days and did exactly what we asked for and what was proposed on the work estimate. They were very nice to work with and the quality of work is great.  Felipe really knows his stuff and can be a "one-stop-shop" for landscaping. In addition to actually performing the manual labor,  he had lots of helpful ideas for us, from grass and grading, to stonework and wood work and plantings.  Only one word of warning for sticklers to punctuality, they arrived a bit later than expected both days.  It didn't bother me too much, as I had arranged to work from home both days, but for anyone on a tight schedule, you might want to address this with them up front.  Personally, I would use them again!  Thanks for all your help, Felipe!

"We hired Dallas to install french doors and did a great job. We also hired him to remove and replace our daughter's floor on her front porch with tile, and did demo and repair in her back deck, that included stepping stones, woodworking, painting, and hung lights, and did a very good job. He also built 8 pressure treated benches for us, asked for input for the 1st one, and completed the rest that were perfect for the use."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Staining and sealing the underside of a deck creates a moisture barrier but traps water in the boards, quickly leading to rot. No matter how well you seal the above deck, water still gets through via nails and screw heads on the surface. Allow this water to flow naturally under the deck, where it is routed through the drainage system.

DIY staining or painting is manageable with proper preparation, including safety measures, necessary tools, and adherence to safe weather conditions for application.

Rot loves moisture, so deck rot typically impacts the parts of a board that stay wet. This includes the underside of boards, in addition to support posts and joists. However, any part of a board can rot, given the right conditions. 

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.

Local building codes don’t specify the number of steps a deck can have before a railing is required, mainly because stair height varies widely. Most areas require decks 30 inches or higher to have a railing. While not exact, that roughly equates to four to seven steps.
