"We were really pleased with our experience with Cary and CNM. Cary was very responsive, punctual, and communicated well with us throughout process, addressing any concerns as they came up. The job started and finished in the expected timeframe. We love our new Trex deck and plan to use CNM for other projects in the future!"

"Thoughtful, skilled, professional. Trustworthy. Patient (with me and the job.:). I definitely had Marco come back and do work for me again. I highly recommend him. I am selling my home and I can?t remember everything that he did, but the most important thing he did was complete a re-grouting of a standup shower that two or three previous attempts by professionals had failed at."

"Paul arrived on time and started job immediately and we did a walk thru showing me all the spots that I was concerned with would no longer be present and he was 100% correct...The house looks like it was just painted but I am now ready to start with a new fresh paint job. A excellent power wash job and completed it in under 2 hours. Also, have hired his company to turn my walk thru closet into my office because I have two closets in my bedroom. So, if your ready for someone to do a job, I recommend Alexis Home Services"

"Based on what is going on in the world today, I thought young men like Brennen no longer existed. There is hope. Confident, personable, polite, respectful, considerate young man who is not trying - but doing - those things necessary to start and build a business based on his word, his character and his dependability. HIRE HIM! I will. Again and again."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

You typically don’t need a railing and handrails on a deck that’s less than 30 inches from the ground. However, consider adding them regardless. Railings provide additional safety for you and your guests who use your deck—plus, railings give the deck a more finished look than it would have without them.

The best material for your deck depends on several factors, including your budget, location, aesthetic preferences, and the level of maintenance you’re willing to do. Wood decking, like redwood, ipe, cedar, and pine, lasts the longest, but it’s more expensive and requires more upkeep than composite and synthetic decking.

Homeowners should build their floating decks at least 18 inches off the ground. Having it at this height will allow for better airflow underneath and help prevent moisture-related problems like warping or rot. That being said, local guidelines for deck heights may vary depending on where you live.

There are a variety of second-story deck privacy ideas depending on your budget and aesthetic. For starters, you might consider fencing or tall privacy railing that masks a good portion of the open deck. A pergola or an awning can provide additional cover and shade. Outdoor curtains are an easy way to add or remove privacy at your convenience, plus they’re a wallet-friendly way to decorate your deck.

The best direction for a gate to swing depends on its location and purpose, but swinging inward is the general rule. An inward swing is often considered safer, prevents the gate from opening into public spaces like a sidewalk, and may be required by local building codes.

There are exceptions and specific considerations. If your property is on a slope, an inward swing might not be possible. For a deck gate, it's safest to have it swing away from any steps. In a backyard, the direction can be a matter of preference, though an inward swing can be helpful when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.

Regardless of direction, ensure the gate can open fully without hitting any objects or blocking spaces. While an inward swing is standard, a gate that can swing both in and out offers the most flexibility if your setup allows for it.
