"Horrible, Attached are pictures. When I met Benn July 15, 2021. He was working at my neighbor’s house. I asked him to come over when he got a chance. He came over later. I told him , “I need a retaining wall built because my dirt around my piers were being washed away from the runoff of the yard next door when it rains. My yard slopes on that side. I also needed a to close a hole in the corner of my back yard. He stated he was going to go home and come up with something that can help the problem. I agreed to to the contract he made. He started the work July 21, 2021 and completed it July 24, 2021. This was after me calling and texting him. I had given him money to start. I had to leave town a few days after the work was completed. The front looked descent but I never checked under the house. Under the house the work looks like an inexperienced carpenter job without a care. I returned home August 22, 2021 to see an unspeakable sight. Most of the foundation he built was washed away from the bottom of the retaining wall. I immediately called Benn to come bye. He had the nerve to tell me, “I told you it wouldn’t work. I was mad a ****. I would have NEVER agreed to pay for work that a professional contractor say Will Not work. One would be crazy. I hired him because he stated he could build a retaining wall to help me with my problem. Now, he is suggesting a gutter barrier that can help for 1400.00. I made huge mistake hiring Benn. These days it hard to find an honest and descent contractor. Sorry for the long comment. See pictures for yourself."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

It is possible to repair wet, rotted wood, but it depends on the extent of the damage. If the wood is severely decayed, it may be necessary to replace the affected sections entirely. However, if the rot is relatively minor, you can attempt to repair it. Start by removing any wet or decayed wood, allowing the area to dry thoroughly. Then, you can apply a wood hardener or consolidant to strengthen the remaining wood fibers. Finally, use epoxy wood fillers to fill in the damaged areas, shaping and sanding them to match the original wood surface.

Cutting the boards directly is one of the fastest ways to remove deck boards with hidden fasteners. Mark two parallel lines that are one-third of the total measurement on both ends and cut out the centerpiece. Then, remove the end of the board that doesn’t have a fastener. Finally, pry open the fastened side and pull it up to pop out the screw or access the fastener. This also allows you to salvage portions of boards for other projects.

The cost to repair a deck is between $900 and $3,500, depending on the cause and extent of the damage. For example, fixing a sinking deck caused by pest damage can cost between $200 and $600, while replacing sinking boards costs between $500 and $4,000.

While the terms deck and porch are often used interchangeably, they are two distinct home features. Porches offer a roof that protects from the elements when coming and going from the house. Generally, porches are on the front of your home. On the other hand, decks are generally built in the backyard of a home and offer no roof or protection from the elements, like rain or snow. Porches typically require less maintenance and upkeep thanks to the roof, but both features require regular cleaning and repairs to maintain good condition.

If you have wood decking, there are several common deck problems that you might encounter. For example, your natural wood boards may fade over time due to things like sunlight, weather, and debris. On top of that, some types of wood decking can rot, grow mold, and attract destructive pests—including termites, carpenter ants, and woodpeckers.
