"I highly recommend. Tom and his team were so nice and professional. They showed up when they said they would and they got the job done quickly. Tom communicated every step of the way and I am thrilled with the result. I had shelves installed inside and got a new deck. 10 out of 10!"

"Ted called me immediately and came out next day to give us a quote. We had a badly split rafter in our attic and also needed some ventilation work done. Was quoted a reasonable price and he was able to fit us in two weeks later. Bob came out and did the work over a couple of days. Everything looks great. Ted called same afternoon to make sure we were happy. We will definitely go back to him when we decide to redo our deck. Excellent experience overall."

"Bob Pino did an excellent job on multiple handyman tasks in my home. He responded quickly, was very knowledgeable, thorough, professional and skilled in the work done. He completed smaller tasks and efficiently repaired an entryway ceiling, with a second person assisting to get it done quickly. His workmanship was skilled and he did a great job with numerous small repairs, installed an under cabinet TV and patiently explained pros and cons of different repair options. I recommend him highly."

"The Marcelo oversaw the entire project and worked with his team to ensure the best quality. We reviewed the whole project beforehand and agreed on all details. Then he gave us a proposed price which he achieved on time, exactly on the agreed price. The repair include some complex carpentry repair, much high-ladder work and detail painting. Everything was done perfectly.. Our final "punch-list" had only two small items which they took care of immediately. I strongly recommend PR Painting"

"A very friendly and efficient company. Brad (the owner) was on the job every day making sure everything was going smoothly and answering any questions. Absolutely no surprises, all work was done as promised and on time. Carpentry issues were discussed with us and resolved quickly. After painting was completed in early June we had the carpenters back to rebuild our deck and were again extremely happy with the results. I would highly recommend this company and have already."

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

Be careful when choosing a product to help you remove ice from your wood deck. Never use sand, gravel, or salt, since these items can damage and scratch the wood. Instead, look for chemical de-icers that are marked as safe for wood decks or use hot water to melt snow and ice.

Yes, and in some cases, frozen ground may improve the digging process for footings due to sturdier conditions. It’s easier than working in muddy conditions, which are more common in the spring. Contractors may use machinery that makes this step a breeze, so harder ground shouldn’t affect the building process.

Whether composite decking is better than wood depends on your priorities, especially regarding budget and maintenance. Composite decking offers superior longevity (30 to 50 years) and durability, and it is low-maintenance, requiring no sanding, staining, or sealing. In contrast, wood decks typically last 10 to 30 years and need refinishing every few years. While the upfront cost of composite is higher than wood, the reduced maintenance can lead to long-term savings. If a lower initial cost is the primary factor, wood is the more affordable choice.

Yes, adding railing to a deck is a great way to improve safety and your home’s aesthetic appeal. Railings can be constructed from wood, metal, or composite, and there are plenty of choices regarding design and style. Always consult local building codes before starting any building project—there are often requirements regarding spacing and height that can differ slightly from place to place.

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.
