"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

Cold temperatures can make your deck boards contract. If they don’t contract evenly, they can put pressure on the deck screws and cause them to pop out, making a noticeable sound. Winterizing your deck can help prevent this from happening.

A porch roof will be prone to leaking if it suffers damage from extreme weather events, or if it was improperly installed and waterproofed from the get-go. In some cases, a porch roof will be leaky simply because it's at the end of its lifespan and needs to be replaced. Proper maintenance and promptly repairing damage from high winds and hail will help keep your porch roof from leaking.

Your deck may look or feel fuzzy after pressure washing because the high-pressure spray tears some wood fibers as it removes the outer layer of dead and discolored wood. This fuzzy effect is a normal part of the pressure-washing process and will go away on its own in a few weeks. You can opt to spot-sand your deck if you’d like to remove it more quickly.

Start with a 60- or 80-grit sandpaper when sanding a deck, though this could change depending on the type of wood that comprises the deck and how smooth you want the overall finish. If you prioritize a smooth final finish, progress to a finer grit like 120 or 150. Avoid ultra-fine grits for traditional sanding, as it could close up the wood pores and make it harder to apply a finish down the line.

Spindles on a deck may also be called balusters or pickets. While not as important to the structural support of the deck as the rail posts, they play a critical role in ensuring the deck is safe to use by closing in large gaps in the railing. For this reason, balusters must be no more than 4 inches away from one another.
