"great work! flexible hours, but got my job done in the expected 3 days and the process was seamless. i needed my plaster ceiling ripped down and replaced with drywall to repair some water damage. he found the source of the water and rerouted the issue to a drain so it wouldn't happen again. he went above and beyond for this job he went and picked up my paint color and cleaned up after himself and even fixed my broken door without me asking and didnt increase the price. Will definitely hire again"

"Filmon was a pleasure to work with. Very disciplined, professional, and punctual. I contacted him to repair my exterior door but he ended up painting my bedrooms, mending my closets and fixing many things around the house. I recently purchased a house and he was considerate of that with his prices too. Filmon also gave me valuable advices in regarding to house maintenance which made things very easy. As a first time homeowner, i felt very supported. Iâ m already recommending him to family and friends, and i wouldnâ t hesitate to work with him again."

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

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.

The best paver for your pool deck depends on your budget, style, and how much maintenance you’re willing to invest. Granite is one of the best low-cost pavers for pool decks. It’s very slip-resistant and durable, too, making it a top pick. Travertine is a high-quality material that resists freeze-thaw cycles, looks stunning, and won’t get hot in the summer. The only downside to travertine is that it costs more than granite.

Yes. Freestanding or floating decks are exactly what the name implies—structures with their own support beams. You can build a deck yourself and place it next to a house for the illusion of a connected deck without the hassle. Or you can construct it in a separate part of your yard for a dedicated outdoor entertainment space. For the purpose of removing a freestanding deck, the steps are the same as an attached deck, but you don’t have to cut the deck away from the home.

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.

That depends on the condition of your deck. An older deck that looks drab, worn, or has multiple damaged boards might be worth replacing before selling. However, if your deck is in good condition, you can simply clean, repaint, or stain it.
