"At first, I gave Mr Gunn a great review due to his quick response and taking care of any issue that I didn't know about. One of the repairs he did for me was to fix a leak in our building and cool seal seams. He guaranteed the leak for six months. (written on receipt). Within a month and a half the leak returned. I have called, left messages for Mr Gunn on 4 different occasions, with no response. Not good business practices."

"They did a good job. I was a bit concern as to why my side fencing didn't go all the way to the back to connect with the fence in my back yard. Also why the poles on my side gate aren't fitting as the old poles were before they move the gate from the back to the side. Poles on gate are way too tall and there is a wide opening at the top of gate that doesn't line up with the rest of my fencing"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

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.

Both composite and PVC decking are excellent alternatives to wood. However, while composite is moderately priced and lasts around 30 years, PVC costs more and lasts longer. PVC is also more durable, though both materials are more durable than wood decking. Ultimately, the choice between composite and PVC decking will come down to your budget and preferences.

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.

Always sand a deck before repainting so the wood is smooth and ready for paint. While you do not need to fully remove paint before repainting, sanding helps remove any areas with weather and sun damage. Sanding also helps remove chipped or flaking paint and opens the wood pores to improve paint adhesion.

The most likely causes of a deck leaning to one side are damaged deck posts, soil erosion, and inadequate deck footings. If you’re not sure about the exact cause, the best option is to call a contractor who can build a deck to inspect the damage and recommend the best way forward.
