"Excellent job repairing our deck! The job was to power wash, replace boards as needed, and paint. The power wash and replacement of boards was well done. Two coats of paint were applied well. Our unhappiness stems from the finished project's paint not looking at all like the paint chip. We get that the actual paint job won't be a perfect match to the chip, but this was way off and way too light. We noticed as they were going into the second coat and said that it didn't look right. Even after it dried, the color was very much too light. I wish they'd had enough knowledge (?) to advise us of this before they got the paint. They kind of shrugged off our complaint because "this is the shade you ordered." We paid in full for the work they did. Then went to Menard's and found a darker shade of the same paint line that we applied ourselves. The deck looks great now."

"Had a kitchen drawer repair, and this last time, a front door handle repaired. I particularly like the ease of making an appointment and working around your schedule. Also, the competence of both workers was a relief: did not have to re-do the repair, and they went out of their way to do what they could without requiring new purchases. Strong recommendation."

"There was a recent all day high wind storm in our area. It partially ripped off a piece of our outside metal trim. We have a small Cape Cod with a high roof. The metal strip of trim kept swinging close to our upstairs new bedroom window .It was making a loud continual scrapping noise. against the house. My husband said he would repair the damage the next day , after the wind storm was over. . He is in his late 60â s and I became worried that he might fall off the high ladder in the process. Friends had told me about sad stories of people that had fallen off high ladders, and broken both hips, legs, arms, and worse , lost their lives. I was becoming anxious . I began searching for a handy man to repair it. I took a photo of the damage too. Most of the handy men that I called told me they did not go up on high ladders. Others said that I would have to wait until next week to get it repaired . The cost of the repair was being estimated between $300.00 -$400.00 . My husband refused to pay that amount and insisted on repairing it himself. The evening was approaching , the wind had not died down yet., and my anxiety level was increasing . I remembered that a friend told me that you can call Home Depot , and ask for names of local handy men that they work with in my area. Home Depot kindly connected me with home advisor, which kindly gave me 3 phone numbers of highly recommended Handy Men . near me. . I happen to call David Anderson name first. It was almost 9pm and actually too late to call anyone, but I was in panic mode , so I tried anyway, expecting to just leave a voicemail . David answered the phone call. He had a calm and kind voice . I sent him a photo of the damage and asked him if he would repair it . He said he would repair it tomorrow and that it wouldnâ t cost several hundred dollars. I was so thankful! David arrived the next afternoon , and repaired it for only $90.00 , but my husband gave him a $100.00. David repaired the trim and bent it back into place . It was hardly noticeable that it was bent! Thank you David! ! My husband and I are very impressed with him! . We highly recommend his work! He is courteous , hard working , and competent Handy Man ! It is hard to find someone like that these days.. We will definitely be using his services in the future !!!"

"My experience with Moe was incredible. He was such a welcoming and kind person from the moment I talked to him. He made sure he understood exactly what I wanted before getting started on anything and I could tell he was really paying attention and wanting to give me what I asked for. His work was incredible and amazing. I needed my deck repaired and fixed before my family came from out of town and he was able to make that happen efficiently and perfectly. I couldn't have asked for anyone better as a worker and as a person. He really did amazing and I wouldn't hesitate to hire him again in the future!!!!"

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

Applying too much sealer to a deck might seem like extra protection, but it can cause more harm than good. Wood is a porous material with a limited capacity to absorb liquids. When you go overboard with sealer, the excess can't soak in and instead forms a film on the surface. This leftover layer is prone to peeling, cracking, and trapping moisture, ultimately defeating the purpose of sealing in the first place. 

Most building codes list a minimum width of 36 inches and a maximum height of 7¾ inches. However, for the most comfort and spaciousness, you’ll want to aim for a width of at least 48 inches and a height of 7 inches. Again, it’s always a good idea to base your numbers off steps that you already use comfortably.

Yes, but ensuring the deck has a solid foundation with adequate footings is critical before building, as the weight of a sunroom will put significant pressure on the structure below. Even if your deck is properly constructed, it may not be able to handle the extra weight. While some basic, lightweight, prefabricated sunrooms can sit on a deck with a strong existing foundation without additional supports, in many cases, the foundation and joists will need reinforcement. It is always best to have a structural engineer perform an inspection to evaluate the deck's quality and structural integrity. A professional can help you decide if reinforcement is sufficient or if it's better to tear down the deck and start over.

The best and fastest way to remove paint from a deck often involves combining a chemical stripper with a pressure washer. Gel-based paint strippers are highly recommended because their thick consistency makes them less messy and easier to apply than liquid strippers. After applying the stripper to loosen the paint, you can use a pressure washer to efficiently wash away the residue. When using a pressure washer for this task, it's important to use a low pressure (under 1000 PSI) to avoid forcing too much moisture into the wood, which could lead to mildew or rot.

While the terms deck and porch are often used interchangeably, they are two distinct structures. A porch is a covered structure, usually attached to the front of a home, that offers protection from the elements. In contrast, a deck is an open, uncovered platform, often attached to the back or side of a home. Because porches have a roof, they typically require less maintenance than decks, but both features need regular cleaning and repairs to stay in good condition.
