"They did not finish job of moving bags on back porch but l understand they found snake skin and was afraid there might be a snake and one of the workers could get bitten. I understand. They traveled from Rogersville TN to Bristol TN the day after l called them. I needed someone fast and Shawn made time to come and help me the very next day. The guys worked hard and fast and l was satisfied with their service."

"Mr. Garrett and his assistant were very helpful, professional, kind, and courteous. They worked hard on an estimate for deck stairs with landings and re-hinging/rehanging two wooden gates. Due to our own miscalculations, we opted to have him do the gates, clean the gutters, and add joist hangers under the existing deck. Mr. Garrett arrived early and worked diligently until the job was complete and very well done. I was blown away by how hard they worked, even in pouring rain and muddy conditions. As far as cleanup, they were very conscientious of not creating a mess and left the area even better than they found it. Very quality work."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Ideally, a gate should be able to swing both in and out. However, if it can only open in one direction, it is generally best for it to swing inward. This is often the safest option, especially for deck gates near steps, as you'll want the gate to swing away from the stairs. An inward swing also prevents the gate from opening into a public space, like a sidewalk, and can be more convenient when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.

There are exceptions, however. The layout of your property may require a different approach. For example, if your property is on a slope, the gate may not be able to swing inward. You should also ensure the gate can open fully without colliding with any objects or blocking access to other areas. For a backyard garden gate where public access isn't a concern, the direction it swings is largely a matter of personal preference. Finally, always check your local building codes, as they may have specific requirements for which way a gate must swing.

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.

The cost to build a deck around a pool typically ranges from $3,000 to $12,000, depending on the size, material, and whether you tackle the build yourself. Most people pay an average of $5,000 for their pool deck project. Hiring a pro to build a pool will cost you more for labor, but it will be worth it to ensure a safe and secure installation.

For the best results, stay off of your deck for at least 48 hours after sealing it. Giving the sealant at least two full days to cure ensures it can fully penetrate the wood, giving you the most protection from sun and weather damage later on. Walking on the deck too soon can prevent it from properly curing and cause your deck to weather prematurely.

A deck is typically attached to a house and accessed via the back door. Decks are usually constructed from wood or composite materials. A terrace, on the other hand, is a raised platform that can be attached to or detached from the house and is typically made from a hard-paved material, such as paving stones. Terraces can be built on the ground or on the roof of a home.
