"RICARDO IS AMAZING. AMAZING IS AN UNDERSTATEMENT. He did the paint for the inside of our house and everyone that has been in our house says it looks brand new!!! I can’t recommend this guy enough!!! He is very honest and straightforward. We are first time homebuyers and not at all handy in terms of maintenance but Ricardo helped us with our interior painting, broken door, deck, and so many other little things!!! I had a bunch of quotes from other painters but went with Ricardo because he was so honest what will look good for our house. Very responsive and friendly!! Very trustworthy!! Thanks, Ricardo!!! You helped us so much!"

"After a broken pipe damaged most of our bathroom, we hired Travis to to do the remodel. Travis installed new drywall, the completely new shower with tile work on the walls, tile work on the shower floor, and created new glass niches in the shower wall. He also replaced the damaged wood work and replaced our tile floor. Travis got the job done much faster than we had anticipated, even coming to work on weekends to ensure that the job got done fast. Our new bathroom is beautiful! We will be hiring Travis again for additional jobs we need done for our home. Highly recommend!"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Staining and sealing the underside of a deck creates a moisture barrier but traps water in the boards, quickly leading to rot. No matter how well you seal the above deck, water still gets through via nails and screw heads on the surface. Allow this water to flow naturally under the deck, where it is routed through the drainage system.

When installing deck boards, screws are generally a better option than nails. Screws offer superior holding strength over time, keeping the boards securely in place. In contrast, nails are more likely to pop out, which can create a tripping hazard. While you can use either, we recommend using 3-inch galvanized deck screws. To minimize the risk of cracking the wood, it's a good practice to drill small pilot holes before driving the screws into the deck joists.

Yes, it is generally safe to have a fire pit on a deck, but you must adhere to building codes and take several safety precautions. For both built-in and freestanding models, you must use a heat-resistant barrier, such as a fire pit pad or heat shield, between the pit and the deck. Additionally, consider the weight of the fire pit and ensure your deck can structurally support it, reinforcing it if necessary. The fire pit must also be positioned a safe distance from your house, particularly from materials like vinyl siding, to prevent heat damage.

Deck repairs cost around $800 to $3,500 . However, your cost depends on the type and severity of the repair, as well as the type of decking material you have. Other factors, like location and labor costs, impact the price, too. Boards and railings are the priciest parts of a deck to repair, while loose stairs are less expensive to fix.

The proper and most comfortable height for a deck stair riser, also called a step, is between four and seven inches. A height of seven inches is often considered ideal for a strain-free step that minimizes the risk of trips and falls. While it is possible to have risers up to 12 inches, this height can be challenging for children, pets, or individuals with mobility issues. For optimal safety and comfort, pair a seven-inch riser with a tread depth (or run) of at least 10 to 12 inches. Always check your local building codes, as they may have specific requirements that differ from these general recommendations.
