Don Carvey Painting was established in 1996. My company has 2 employees and I work on all my painting and wallpapering jobs.

"I hired Don to paint my upstairs bedrooms, front room, staircase, and staircase walls. He gave me a reasonable estimate. What I respected about his service was he was punctual, finished the job within the timeframe, and cleaned up each day when he finished. I would recommend Don Carvey Painting for any interior painting job. My upstairs looks amazing!"

At CertaPro Painters, our reputation is based on Certainty — your Certainty of a job well done. We focus on the details of every project — interior and exterior — and we focus on you, our client.

"They did an excellent job. I usually do painting myself. However the high ceiling and beams are too much for me. This was worth every penny I spent. They were reasonable in price . Because of the pricing I had them do a bedroom on top of the living room and hallway. Victor (painter) was making sure everything was correct and what I expected. He also patched my walls where necessary. Ruthanne at office was awesome! I probably now will just hire these guys when painting needs to be done in future. They made it easy and affordable."

Started business in 1983 as specialty cleaning mainly acoustical tile ceilings and soon got involved with interior painting with a somewhat large apartment rehab project and expanded from there. Although we are a family owned and operated with myself and two sons we are able to accomplish a wide variety of painting and decorating projects through out the years.We do small jobs such as a residential bath or kitchen or larger jobs also such as car dealerships, whole apartment complexes. Also in shop finishing work such as mill work, doors, cabinets, and just about anything that a customer may need as it relates to painting or finishing. With any good tradesman it comes down to the details, know-how, professionalism.

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

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.

By correcting grading issues and ensuring water is directed away, preventing future damage.

While building your deck, you might come across something called the four-inch sphere rule. Essentially, this railing requirement for a deck states that a four-inch ball should not be able to fit through any gap in the deck railings. The gap between spindles and between the decking and the bottom of the railing must be less than four inches to prevent small children or pets from squeezing through the gap.

In most cases, repairing a deck costs much less than replacing it. Deck repairs cost around $2,000 on average, while the cost of deck replacement is at least $7,900. Repairing involves fixing issues like loose boards or small cracks, which requires less material and labor. If the deck has extensive damage, though, the cost of repairs can add up quickly, and it may be more cost-effective to replace the deck entirely.

Several types of porches are available to meet your needs and style preferences. Some common porch types include:

  • Porticos are essentially a roof over a walkway leading to the home's front entrance. 

  • Sunrooms are closed-in porches that are an extension of the house with glass or plastic panels that allow optimal sunlight. 

  • Wraparound porches extend around the entire home, or at least the front and one side, and offer multiple entrances to the house.

  • Back porches are an extension of the home’s floor into the outdoors. These offer more protection and privacy than a deck.
