Get matched with top deck cleaning pros in Ladoga, IN

"Marcos from Lara painting was recommended from a few former neighbors and I have used his company multiple times. He is very responsive, punctual, works efficiently, and cares very much about the quality of his work and ensuring his customers are happy. For my most recent jobs, he painted the ceiling under my deck and stained the wood under the stairs of my composite deck. The stain color he selected was a perfect match and I couldn't be happier. He also painted a chalkboard accent wall in my daughter's room. I would highly recommend Lara painting and will use them for my future painting needs."

"Paul and crew painted the upstairs hallway, kitchen, family room and mudroom. The crew did a great job on the walls and trim and cleaned up nicely. Their price is very competitive as well. This was the second time we have used Protect and Preserve and wouldn't hesitate to use them in the future.

"Matt does a great job!"

"Very good. Cleaning was through and professional. The cleaner damaged one screen by yanking it hard. They did fix the screen but could not fixed the tabs that broke off. Other than that it was an excellent job of cleaning nearly 50 windows.

"They came out and cleaned out our gutters and did a great job. They got it done and did not leave any mess behind. We have some high places to reach gutters and they handled it all without a problem. Will use them again.

"Ray's yellow page advertising is what drew my attention to his business. He had the first ad under the painting contractor heading. The amount of information provided in the ad is what made me contact him initially. Once he showed up at my home, we did a walk through and I was impressed with how quickly he spotted problem areas. He completed the work a few days later, on-time and very efficiently. Ray was professional, thorough and reasonably priced. I will continue to use this contractor in the future."

"They did a wonderful job. Arrived exactly when they said they would and spent hours making sure the driveway and path to the house was spotless! They also washed the sidewalk in front of the house without charging me, just as a surprise bonus! What a fantastic job they did.

"Manny communicated with me almost immediately after the purchase to get the appointment set up. They were very flexible in scheduling and even rearranged when I had a last-minute conflict come up on my schedule. On the day of the apt they came in and assessed what I wanted done, then got right to work. They were very quiet, clean and professional. Finished all work on time and upon cleanup I had nothing to do but stand back and admire newly painted areas. Will DEFINITELY hire again!!"

"I was very impressed with George Wimmer, "My personal gardener."
My problem was that my sump was running often most seasons of the year, and dumping water into the side yard where it would run down a shallow valley in my lawn and over the public sidewalk. It has been a constant source of erosion, poor lawn, soft and muddy ground especially in the spring, and even ice covering my sidewalk in cold weather. I was not allowed by the city of Noblesville to connect my sump overflow to the storm sewer. I could not send the water off my property to be a problem for a neighbor either, of course.
I had done some research and developed an idea for a dry well to receive the water. I contacted several companies in Angies List that were landscapers or dealt with water drainage problems. After all was said and done, "My personal gardener" not only grasped the problem and the necessary solution, but gave me a very reasonable estimate for the solution.
George and his assistant dug a hole 4x4 feet square, and 5 feet deep. They cut the sod off first, and set it aside to be replaced later. George used a mini-backhoe to do the real digging, and it dug the hole quickly even through hard blue clay.  An empty 55 gallon drum was placed in the hole--the plastic drum had many holes drilled through the sides and bottom. The purpose of the drum was to receive the water directly from the sump and then allow it to disperse into the larger area underground. The 4x4x5 foot hole was filled (around the drum) with round gravel. Some kind of landscaping cloth was also placed over the gravel, then a layer of topsoil, and then the sod was placed back on top. The finished product was rolled and now the ground is the same level as it was before. 
Even if the water is slow dispersing into the subsoil, the dry well can receive about 250-300 gallons of water before it overflows, if it ever does. I anticipate that my yard erosion problem and sidewalk damage problems are now over. George and his assistant placed the dirt that was taken from the hole in various locations around the foundation of my house (at my request), where the ground had settled and too much foundation was exposed. He did not charge for this extra service.
It took a good half day of work for two men to do this job, and heavy equipment was used, and all materials including landscaping cloth, 2-3 yards of gravel, plastic drum, pipe fittings, etc., were all included in the job quote, which I thought was more than fair, in fact, a bargain.
According to Angies List, My Personal Gardener also offers plants for 25% off for members, so I am having George put in some plants for me in a larger landscaping project. I am trusting that it will go just as well. I have not been acquainted with this George and "My Personal Gardener" before this project, but I feel fortunate to have found him.

"Researched Wood Renovation's reviews on Angie's List and noted it's high ratings. Requested an estimate from Steve, the owner. He was punctual for our appointment- provided insight into the deck's maintenance history (this home was purchased in Nov. 2009- prior owners provided no maintenance history- so, it is assumed the deck had not been maintained). Steve recommended the type of stain they will mix and customize for each job and type of wood. He provided his quote in writing and honored the Angie's List discount. I did not seek out additional estimates- hired Wood Renovation and scheduled the work. Steve was not present at the 2 day job- sent 2 emploiyees who washed the deck on the first day, then replaced several boards and were to secure others with screws or nails and stain the deck floor and steps up to the deck, as the railings are painted. Their truck was parked in front of my house in Fishers- they mixed the stain with water at/ near their truck location and reported they had "spilled a little" in the street. I was not presnet when this occurred, it was reported to me later. Whan I arrived home later in the afternoon, it was apparent that liquid matching the stain color of my deck had been spilled near my driveway and had trickled down, then pooled in front of my neighbor's driveway entrance. No liquid came in contact with anyone's private property- and the stain did not alter the asphalt, but caused discoloration. Other than being a little unsightly, I did not think any remediation was necessary, since the stain will fade/ wear away from constant traffic on the street (it is the only entrance/ exit to a cul-de-sac) and weather. However, my neighbors became livid regarding the stain- and alleged it was going to ruin an upcoming dinner event at their home in several weeks.They insisted the stain be removed or covered up, as it was detracting from the beauty of their house and landscaping- and the street's discoloration was unacceptable. The street is actually the property of the town of Fishers- it is not owned or maintained by the HOA. I accepted responsibility for the stain, although I did not see it happen and did not participate in the occurrence. After many, many phone calls and emails with the HOA and Steve, it was agreed that Wood Renovation would (at no cost) cover the stain with asphalt sealer. Wood Renovation applied it appropriately (in my opinion), and even though the street is highly travelled there are no tire tracks though the sealer and it is not messy. But my neightbors became infuritated because the sealer is black, against asphalt that is light gray and "became a sea of black". Since I have chosen to no longer communicate with those neighbors, I do not know if they are seeking additional remediation from Wood Renovation- I do know they met with the HOA Board to discuss this and complain. This was an unfortunate incident, which Wood Renovation truly did try to make right. However, I will not hire this company again for any wood staining or deck maintenance work. Regarding the deck, some of the stain did not "take" on some of the boards, although it is not real noticeable. And recently several of the boards seem to be warping and are becoming loose again."
