"Ed has an incredible work ethic. I appreciated his knowledge and experience when it came to thoroughly cleaning and staining a huge deck that wraps around the back of my home. When he was finished it looked like a brand new deck. I will hire Ed again and I highly recommend him."

"Defiance did an amazing job power washing the exterior of my house. It’s an older home and clearly hadn’t been washed in a very, very long time. They brightened up the house and also cleaned the windows, tracks and sills. The windows look like mirrors when the sun is shining on the outside or a light is reflecting from the inside. When looking at my yard through one of the windows, looks like you can reach right out and touch the grass as if the pane of glass wasn’t even there. So grateful they were able to perk this place up! Great communication and they were very knowledgeable about all the exterior siding and windows of an older house. Highly recommend!"

"Exemplary Contractor -- Made our "Top Five" list of the dozens of trades that we used in the construction of our new home.  Paul and his crew have an attention for detail that exceeds my wife's and my own.  The fact that Mrs. Sperback (Paul Sperback owner of firm) is an interior decorator simply added value to what has become a trusted and valuable business relationship.
We will not even entertain bids for our other properties since working with Protect and Preserve.  Their professionalism, pricing, integrity, punctuality, and absolute desire for perfectionism has won a customer for life from this outstanding contractor.
As mentioned, as general contractor, we worked with dozens of subs on a fairly high-end build.  Paul and Lindi earned our trust and respect early in our process.
Enthusiastically endorsed as professional a painting and finishing contractor as I have had the pleasure of doing business with in the last 15 years of managing real estate assets.
An example where highest quality outcome/performance can be achieved without having to pay ultra premium prices.

"As my ratings indicate,  it went very smoothly  George was keeping watch on the weather, arrived early and finished about 20 minutes before the rain hit our area.  He had been delayed by storms and heavy rains here but arrived at the first break weather permitted
I have recommended this business  to numerous people who have continued to use it for their landscape installations and maintenance His quote may not be the least expensive but he stands by his work and his word  After 50 years of loving gardening
I found out the hard way years ago a bargain price is usually no bargain!

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

As with patios, there are many types of deck choices to choose from to add personalization to your home. Some common deck options include:

  • Attached decks are anchored to the home and include simple ground-level options or multi-level structures with stairways and separate landings. 

  • Detached island decks are not attached to the home; they’re a freestanding structure in the yard. 

  • Wraparound decks connect the back of the house with at least one other side and often are built with railings for safety. 

  • Multi-level decks connect your deck through varying levels of elevation, featuring landings that are attached to stairs.

When installing deck boards, screws are generally a better option than nails. Screws offer superior holding strength over time, keeping the boards securely in place. In contrast, nails are more likely to pop out, which can create a tripping hazard. While you can use either, we recommend using 3-inch galvanized deck screws. To minimize the risk of cracking the wood, it's a good practice to drill small pilot holes before driving the screws into the deck joists.

Two coats of stain are ideal for the best protection and aesthetic appeal. However, if your decking is made of particularly dense hardwood, you may only need one coat. If you want an intense color, two coats are ideal.

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.

There are ways to clean your deck to help maintain a clean appearance. You can easily remove surface-level dirt and grime by wetting your deck with a hose and doing a quick scrub with store-bought deck cleaner monthly. 

However, investing in professional deck cleaning services near you at least twice a year is worth it. This service saves you time and ensures that your deck will avoid accidentally becoming scratched by blasting the pressure washer at the wrong angle.
