"After submitting a request about my project, Terry reached out to me immediately. I was looking for help with my very small useless front yard after I attempted my own design that ended up in a big mess. He came by and looked at the area and was in contact with me while brainstorming some ideas on how he could transform my small area into something that would be low to no maintenance. The crew surpassed expectations. They created more than only curbing for me, they created a complete design and I haven't even put my finishing touches on it and my neighbor's are admiring the work. Contacting Terry was simple and he was honest and easy to work with. He went above and beyond and answered all of my questions. Whether you are looking for someone to help with a large project or a small one, you should give him a call. I was concerned my project would be too small and possibly not worth his time but he made me feel like I was just as important as any other job he had going on. The quality of the work speaks for itself. I highly recommend Curb Appeal for enhacing your outdoor spaces!"

"Crystal Clean did a truly awesome job with all of our power washing needs. The job was completed quickly and with extra care to protect our lawn and deck from the cleaning chemicals. Our roof is over 15 years old and now looks new! We are very happy with the quality work done by Clint at Crystal Clean."

Deck Cleaning questions, answered by experts

There are more pros than cons when staining a deck. Deck stain is more affordable than paint, it protects the wood and allows the natural textures to shine through, and it can revive the appearance of your home. However, deck stain also requires prep work (sometimes days or more), carries more upkeep than a painted deck, and can fade over time if not cared for. 

Space deck handrail posts four to six feet apart. If the posts are more than six feet apart, the railing will be less able to withstand lateral forces and is more susceptible to breaking. Additionally, railing posts that are more than six feet apart may not be up to code, and you may face fines and be required to reinstall the posts to bring them up to code.

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.

Pressure-treated decks last 15 to 20 years on average, but with proper maintenance, you could get 40 to 50 years of value from yours. Reseal your deck every one to two years, and replace old or rotted wood as soon as possible to avoid structural damage. Where you live plays a role in the lifespan of your deck. Intense sunlight, rainfall, wind, and hail can reduce the deck’s lifespan.

In general, you need a footing at each corner of your deck, and within 8 feet of each other. So, how many you need depends on the size and shape of your deck, plus any local building codes. It also depends on factors like the load capacity of your soil and the weight of your deck. You can find a footing calculator online or contact a pro for support.
