"I had an excellent experience working with Mr. Garcia who completed tuckpointing and fixed some siding for me. From the start, their professionalism was evident. They kept me well-informed throughout the entire project, ensuring I understood each step of the process. Their attention to detail and craftsmanship were impressive, resulting in a job well done. The tuckpointing work was expertly executed, restoring the beauty and integrity of my homeâ s brickwork. Additionally, the siding repairs were seamlessly integrated, leaving my exterior looking flawless. I highly recommend this contractor for their reliability, communication, and outstanding workmanship. Itâ s reassuring to know there are professionals like them who take pride in their work and deliver exceptional results."

"Very quick to respond to posting and came next day for estimate. This was a small repair job on fascia and flashing which they handled at time of estimate for a reasonable price, especially considering the minimum fees that bigger contractors charge -- if you can even get the bigger guys to come out. Contractor (Eric) seemed knowledgeable and was polite and professional. Would hire again."

Customers say: Quick response

"Our experience with Bursey construction was absolutely amazing from start to finish. We knew that we wanted to remodel our deck but didnâ t know where to begin. However, James did a great job walking us through the process and working within our budget. He completed everything in a timely manner and maintained upmost professionalism. Overall, I couldnâ t be happier with how our deck turned out. Would highly recommend!"

"I hired True 45 Construction to repair, power wash and seal our deck. Elias's service was excellent and he went over the top to assist our needs and service. He identified issues with our deck we were unaware of and very thankful for that. We highly recommend him and would hire him again if ever needed. Our deck looks like new!"

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

Many composite decking manufacturers, including the popular Trex brand, offer warranties that protect against warping under specific conditions. These warranties typically last between 20 and 50 years, but they usually exclude claims related to improper installation of the product. Some manufacturer warranties only cover decks built by certified professionals.

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.

PVC decking might be long-lasting, but this synthetic material lacks​​ the natural aesthetic or sustainability of wood decking. If you want to match your decking to your new garden furniture or just freshen up the faded surface, it’s not usually possible to paint PVC decking. When comparing PVC to composite decking, PVC is pricier and more prone to warping in hot regions.

Choosing whether your deck should be lighter or darker than your house is a matter of personal preference, as there is no right or wrong answer. However, considering the pros and cons of each can help guide your decision. Darker colors are often chosen because they show less dirt, footprints, and marks from daily wear, making them easier to keep clean. On the other hand, lighter deck colors tend to stay cooler in the summer. From a design perspective, using a deck color that contrasts with your home's exterior can help make the deck a more defined and distinct feature. Consulting color theory can also make the process of choosing a complementary house and deck color combination easier.

Yes, you can build a deck around a fire pit, as long as it is safely enclosed, meets code requirements, and is at least 15 feet away from your home. You’ll want to ensure you have a heat-resistant barrier between the fire pit and your deck to prevent any structural damage and fires. A galvanized ring surrounded by pavers, brick, or stone makes for a beautiful, safe, and sturdy design.
