"I originally hired them to haul off some trash/junk. During that visit I learned about all the different services they provide and I have expanded my usage of their services. I have several acres that need attention and they have all the equipment to help with that. The work is ongoing but is going well."

"I had Tarra and Doug come out and tear down fence I had that was in bad shape and needed replacing, I have 3 dogs that try and get out fence and dig. After speaking to them I decided to put a concrete ledge at bottom of fence to help with the digging of the dogs and it has help no problems of dogs getting out of yard. After fence was completed I ask if they would build me a walkway in the back area and it was completed and I love it. They are very professional clean up area everyday before they leave and employees seem very happy and professional. I’m very happy with all the work I have had done and will use them again and I recommend them for all services. I may have them put in a deck for the pool I maybe getting. Love links and logs all will use again. They take pride in the work they do and said if I have any problems with fence call them and they will fix it."

"I have a really large yard (acres) that was grown up ..we have always done ourselves and we are probably little hard to please. A superior job was done. He came and gave me a price with an app on his phone based on the square footage of our yard ..(105,000).. Was a fair price ..I paid for mowing but he also did some weed eating and picked up limbs before mowing... I came home to a yard well done..was friendly and courteous ..I highly recommend Universal Lawn Company"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Pressure-treated decking may be worth it if you want a natural, insect- and rot-resistant decking material that will last for decades with proper maintenance. As such, it’s a much better option than untreated pine. Alternative wood decking materials like cedar and redwood tend to be less durable and more expensive. Some homeowners prefer composite decking, which is a low-maintenance alternative to wood but is also more costly.

To maximize the utility of space under a deck, it’s important to keep this area dry and clean. One way to prevent the area from becoming too wet is to install an under-deck draining system. This affordable home upgrade channels water away from the deck and provides usable space for storage or a functional area below a second-story deck. Not only will this be a useful maintenance upgrade, it can boost your home’s property value.

Yes, it’s definitely possible to build a pergola on an existing deck. All you need to do is attach the pergola support beams to the deck’s joists and build up from there. Beware that mistakes can damage your deck, so if you’re at all unsure of the process, play it safe and hire a pro for your custom build.

The best paver for your pool deck depends on your budget, style, and how much maintenance you’re willing to invest. Granite is one of the best low-cost pavers for pool decks. It’s very slip-resistant and durable, too, making it a top pick. Travertine is a high-quality material that resists freeze-thaw cycles, looks stunning, and won’t get hot in the summer. The only downside to travertine is that it costs more than granite.

Materials for a second-story deck must be weather- and rot-resistant, though the specific choices will largely be determined by your budget and style preference. Pressure-treated wood is on the lower end of the price scale, but it can be customized and stained the way you like it. Composite, on the other hand, is pricier for installation and has fewer options for customization, but you’ll save money and time in the long run because it requires little maintenance.
