"Did not clean storm sills throughly and left some debris/dirt. I let him use my vacuum, but handling storm windows is hard. A couple of our wood windows would not open and he did not think or know how to remove the storm frame. My husband talked him through it and loaned him the necessary tools. Otherwise, he would have skipped cleaning those. I will commend his spotless cleaning of every glass pane and even skylights. He was very personable and professional. I would definitely use him again!! Thanks Ben"

"Nate did an amazing job power-washing the siding on our house! It looks brand new again. He always returns calls and messages very promptly. He also showed up on time, was very communicative, and super friendly. We will definitely be hiring Fresh Fleet for any further power-washing needs we have, and I highly recommend them to anybody else in need of their services!"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Although composite decking is extremely durable, it’s also susceptible to extreme heat. Prolonged exposure to sunlight can cause fading, warping, and cracking. Composite also retains heat more than wood, which makes it dangerous to walk on in the summer. You can help prevent heat damage by only building with composite in shaded areas or using rugs to cover the hottest spots.

Wood decks need to be replaced every 10 to 15 years on average. Natural wood is highly vulnerable to infiltration and damage from moisture, which can occur rapidly due to exposure to outdoor elements. You can protect your deck and maximize its lifespan by sealing it every year or two.

Yes, you can build a deck over your outdoor HVAC unit, but you need to leave at least 5 feet of vertical clearance above the unit. If you don’t want your deck to be that high off the ground, you could build a floating deck in another part of your yard—again, as long as you leave at least 4 feet of horizontal space between the deck and your AC unit.

Pressure-treated wood contains preservatives that give the material internal protection from rot and pests. Untreated lumber won’t last more than a few years unless you choose a more expensive wood, like cedar, that naturally stands up well to moisture. Composite decking can outlast wood but is more expensive and doesn’t look as natural. Keep in mind that you’ll need to seal any exterior wood product to protect it from the elements and other forms of external damage.

Before installing a deck, you must build a base for the deck to rest upon, often made of compacted soil or gravel. While gravel is an optional material, it helps with drainage. Some contractors also recommend installing a weed control membrane, which helps provide a solid foundation for the frame. In the case of an elevated deck, a pro will often lay down a concrete slab as a foundation.
