"Troy prioritized my floors and worked hard to complete the job. The epoxy finish on 1600 sq ft are beautiful and getting rave comments from everyone who sees them. Troy added an accent color at our request which brought out the rust color in the blue pine used elsewhere in the home. We are so thankful we hired someone who wanted to do the job we described. Troy also did 2400 sq ft with a stone pigment in the garage. It is beautiful and the between the two transition was so well done. The garage floor is really solid and durable. We moved a 2,000 pound safe that slide off the dolly at one point and it didnâ t dent . Again, the pigment is exact to the color sample. Troy takes pride in his work and completed the job on time and exactly on his estimate. We have worked with many contractors over the years. The success of projects often depends on who you select to do the job. Troy was 5 star in every way. And a really nice, hard working ethical contractor."

"It was a great experience, I was pleased with the time and price... Although for quality I needed to stand by and check frequently for the job to be completed as I wanted. I do have to say that I am a little picky when it comes to quality and I requested some doors to be repainted and it was done in a timely manner. I was pleased with overall job..."

"J &J was very punctual! The team divided and conquered cleaning my carpets and washing the Windows. They were very speedy, yet very friendly and had tremendous attention to detail. It was nice dealing with a company that truly believes in customer service and value for there customers money! Their prices were so reasonable and with the list of services they provide, they're a one stop shop for landlords like myself. I would definitely recommend them to other property owners!"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Most building codes require that spindles or balusters on deck and stair railings be spaced no more than four inches apart. This safety standard, often called the '4-inch sphere rule,' is designed to prevent small children or pets from slipping through the railing. A good way to visualize this is that a 4-inch sphere should not be able to pass between two spindles. For the same safety reason, the space between the bottom rail and the deck floor 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 crucial to check your local building codes to ensure compliance before starting your project.

The “best” material is in the eye of the beholder, as each common decking material boasts its pros and cons. Poured concrete is the best budget-friendly option, but composite wood brings high-grade aesthetics without breaking the bank. Wood is the most traditional material, but it requires more maintenance than some other materials. In other words, do your research before settling on a deck material to find the one that’s best for your pool.

Deck skirting shouldn’t touch the ground, especially if you have a wood deck, which is vulnerable to moisture. Ideally, you should leave at least 3/4 of an inch of space between the deck skirting and the ground for more ventilation. Pros also recommend that you incorporate about 1 square foot of space for ventilation for the underside of the deck to every 150 square feet of decking. Proper ventilation prevents mold growth and rot that can damage your deck.

In general, you need a footing at each corner of your deck, and within 8 feet of each other. So, how many you need depends on the size and shape of your deck, plus any local building codes. It also depends on factors like the load capacity of your soil and the weight of your deck. You can find a footing calculator online or contact a pro for support.

A covered deck can be a good investment that increases your home value—especially if you live in a hot region with a lot of sun. A covering over the deck means you can get more use out of it, even on the hottest summer days. With a permanent deck covering, you can even add ceiling fans to help cool down your deck for added comfort.
