"I can't speak highly enough about this company. When I called to arrange an on site visit for an estimate, they showed up on time and listened to everything I had to say about the job. I was given a written quote on the spot (something I rarely see from contractors), so I offered them the job. To my surprise, he said he could get started the very next day (a Saturday) and that they would be able to finish the following Monday when the deck had dried off. They arrived to start the job when they said they would, and got to work right away. I was concerned I would need to move the stuff we have on the decks, but they told me they could simply move them to the side and then move them back when they were done. They did exactly that, and everything was put back to its original position when they were finished. They were power washing all day, and were very thorough. When they came back two days later, they again went to work right away rebuilding the stairs and water sealing the deck. The stairs look great! They even added a step so the bottom step could sit more securely on the concrete (it had been resting on a cinder block before being rebuilt). They advised to wait 1-2 days for the water sealer to dry before using the decks, we paid them, and they did a great job cleaning up when they left. I wish all contractors we hired were as efficient and straightforward as the people working at Melvin Power Wash. I will absolutely call on them again when my decks need maintenance, or if my house needs a wash."

"We are very pleased with our new deck. Brian was a big help with the process and Josh and Hunter were great. We did a dark brown Trex deck with a white railing. We would definitely hire them again should we need another project done."

"Tonys work experience was obvious and work quality was excellent. Tony repaired deck steps, added deck stair rails, power washed and stained the deck. Would certainly recommend Tony for future projects, and will engage with Tony on projects of my own."

"We called Ranieri Construction because a combination of ground settling and a sloppy repair made our concrete pool deck not only cracked and uneven, but also unsightly. Lou Ranieri explained that they couldn’t fix the cracks as they were, but would have to remove the filler from the first repair, grind down the uneven surfaces and stain the whole surface to achieve an even color. Once the plan was in motion, Andrew Ranieri worked tirelessly to grind down and level all the surfaces – this man is a definite perfectionist and the even surface is better than we ever thought was possible. A skim coat was applied and, once hardened, the whole area was cleaned and stained. It’s beautiful! We can’t say enough about how diligent Lou and Andrew are in their, often backbreaking, work. Once completed, the work area was left spotlessly clean. This is the type of company all should strive to be – a company where work ethic, integrity and the correct way of solving a problem are paramount. Thank you, Ranieri Construction! You're the best!"

"Hire this company! Seriously.? If I could give Bright Painting and the specific crew of workers who worked on our house an A+++ rating, I would.? Before we hired Bright Painting, we met with 3 other painting contractors.? While Bright Painting did not give us the lowest bid, we were convinced by?owner Celso Oliveira that the extensive preparation they would do on our 100+ year old house before even beginning to paint, and then the paint job itself, would make it well worth the extra money.? Plus, Celso was willing to compromise his initial bid somewhat?so that sealed the deal for us. From the day the crew of Wilson, Elias, Juan and Francis arrived and began their prep work, I was impressed and pleased.? In addition to doing incredibly careful, thorough, skillful, and yes, extensive?work, they were, and continued to be throughout the entire job, the nicest, most pleasant, and most responsible crew of people I have ever had work on?our house?(and there have been many over the 16 years we've owned this old house.)? As for the painting itself, they took the time and care needed to paint perfectly the many house details, like the dentil molding and various other moldings,?the window sashes, the storm windows, and the trim, to name some.? They never cut corners and always addressed, in a manner that never made me feel I was asking too much, any concern I had.? And, I can't say enough good things about Celso and his son, Arthur.? Despite the fact that the job ended up taking longer then they anticipated, I never felt that they were rushing the crew to move faster and move on.? As a homeowner who wanted the job done well from A to Z, I really, really appreciated that.? Oh, and Celso and Arthur are also?extremely nice people and great to work with.?So, I'll end this review exactly where I started it and say simply - HIRE THIS COMPANY!!. **UPDATE** I just had to update my review because Bright Painting continues to be an outstanding company providing unbelievable service. When they finished painting in November, 2015, they weren't able to stain the porch deck and stairs because it had gotten too cold for the stain to dry and cure properly. They promised to return in the spring and agreed we should hold back a portion of the money we owed them. Arthur contacted me in the spring and we scheduled the work. Unfortunately, it was extraordinarily windy on the day Wilson did the work and alot of leaves and pollen messed up the stairs. Arthur sent Wilson back to touch up the stairs on July 12, but when Wilson tried to do it, he wasn't satisfied with how it looked. He contacted Arthur who had him re-sand and re-stain the entire front porch and stairs to make sure it would look good. This company - the owners and the workers - go above and beyond in a way I have never experienced before in any contractor. They are the best!"

"After first making contact with Ronney, he was on top of things right away. He showed up the same day and we went over work to be completed. Ronney stayed in touch and showed up when he said they would. The cleaning service was remarkable and apartment looks great from top to bottom. I would highly recommend"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

The “best” material is in the eye of the beholder, as each common decking material boasts its pros and cons. Poured concrete is the best budget-friendly option, but composite wood brings high-grade aesthetics without breaking the bank. Wood is the most traditional material, but it requires more maintenance than some other materials. In other words, do your research before settling on a deck material to find the one that’s best for your pool.

Hangers are one way of attaching stair stringers to a deck. These metal hangers are usually adjustable, allowing you to find the ideal angle for a secure installation. They’re the best choice for installing longer staircases, such as one on a two-story deck, to reduce the load on the deck frame while keeping the stairs stable.

Although composite decking is extremely durable, it’s also susceptible to extreme heat. Prolonged exposure to sunlight can cause fading, warping, and cracking. Composite also retains heat more than wood, which makes it dangerous to walk on in the summer. You can help prevent heat damage by only building with composite in shaded areas or using rugs to cover the hottest spots.

If you have wood decking, there are several common deck problems that you might encounter. For example, your natural wood boards may fade over time due to things like sunlight, weather, and debris. On top of that, some types of wood decking can rot, grow mold, and attract destructive pests—including termites, carpenter ants, and woodpeckers.

Most building codes require that railing spindles (also known as balusters) on decks or stairs be spaced no more than four inches apart. This safety standard is often called the '4-inch sphere rule,' which means a sphere with a 4-inch diameter should not be able to pass through the opening between balusters. This rule is in place to prevent small children and pets from slipping through the railing. For the same reason, the space between the bottom rail and the deck or floor surface should also be no more than four inches. As a general guideline, professionals often install three balusters per foot of railing. However, since specific requirements can vary by location, it is essential to check your local building codes to ensure compliance before starting your project.
