"Mike Jentel did an outstanding job of repairing and painting our kitchen ceiling that had received water damage from water leaking from the upstairs bathroom. He used plastic sheets to protect the kitchen area and did an excellent clean up job. He drove to the paint shop to get the exact color paint needed. This was fine service for a very reasonable cost."

"I have a deck that I neglected to maintain properly. I knew it needed repair, and I was putting it off and putting it off for more time than I'd like to admit to people who know me. I hooked up with Deck Fence and House through HomeAdvisor, as they were local and well-reviewed. They were able to come to my house the next day to review the job: repair of rotting steps and supports, power washing, and staining. We agreed on a fair price and they started work the next day. The job was probably more than Deck Fence and House initially envisioned, as the rot was severe in places, and involved a significant amount of cutting and fitting of new supports, baseboards, and steps. As a previous reviewer wrote, they did good work, took the time to get it right, and kept the original price. The crew was able to remove the damage and power wash and stain in about two days, in 90+ degree heat. Although I didn't expect it (and, quite frankly, forgot to ask for), they hauled the old rotted wood away, saving me the trouble of disposing it myself. I highly recommend Deck Fence and House. The crew was friendly and personable, they took precautions to protect my house and vegetation from any stray stain applied, they showed up on time, did the work as requested, charged a fair price, and cleaned the site. Isn't this how it should be all the time? ;)"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

An above-ground pool with a deck can increase your home's value by as much as 4% to 7%, but it depends on your local climate, potential buyers, and the size and condition of your pool. Some buyers see a pool as a liability instead of a luxury, especially if it's at the end of its life span. In general, it's best to add a pool and deck to your property if it will bring you enjoyment—not because it raises the value of your home.

Composite decking requires a solid foundation or substructure for support. This base is typically a frame composed of posts, beams, joists, and footings. The frame can be built from various materials, such as composite, plastic, timber, or metal, depending on your budget, deck type, and environmental conditions. For maximum stability, a professional deck builder may recommend installing this frame on top of a solid concrete base. It is best to discuss the most suitable substructure design and materials for your specific project with a professional.

A wood deck requires annual cleaning and regular inspections for loose or broken boards, nails, and screws. It should be refinished by applying a stain or sealer every two to three years to protect the wood from water damage, rot, mildew, and sun fading. The exact frequency can depend on the climate and the deck's exposure to sun and moisture. If your deck is painted, it will need repainting approximately every 10 years. Signs that your deck needs refinishing include faded, splintering, or warping boards.

The best direction for a gate to swing depends on its location and purpose, but swinging inward is the general rule. An inward swing is often considered safer, prevents the gate from opening into public spaces like a sidewalk, and may be required by local building codes.

There are exceptions and specific considerations. If your property is on a slope, an inward swing might not be possible. For a deck gate, it's safest to have it swing away from any steps. In a backyard, the direction can be a matter of preference, though an inward swing can be helpful when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.

Regardless of direction, ensure the gate can open fully without hitting any objects or blocking spaces. While an inward swing is standard, a gate that can swing both in and out offers the most flexibility if your setup allows for it.

Some elevated decks require stairs that lead to the ground level per the local fire codes in some municipalities. In other regions, a staircase is an optional feature that can increase accessibility and convenience for homeowners who want ground-level access to their deck. Additionally, a staircase is necessary if your home doesn't have an existing door leading to the deck.
