"Richard was amazing. We needed work done to ensure insurance renewal. He was able to remove moss and clean the roof same day I contacted him. It looked great and the insurance was happy too. He also did yard clean up for us. It was a large job that included branch removal and alot a broken furniture and other items. He is kind and professional and his pricing is very reasonable. I plan on hiring him again when we are ready to do some interior work."

"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!"

"On time, fairly priced, and hard working. Cida and his team showed up at my house when they said they would, they made sure of exactly what I wanted done, and then proceeded to clean and beautify my yard. They actually did more than I'd asked them to do, and my yard looks wonderful. I would absolutely recommend them, and I absolutely will use them again. Thank you Cida!!"

Deck Cleaning questions, answered by experts

The best way to sand a deck is by cleaning it, sanding the boards and stairs with 60- or 80-grit sandpaper, and sanding the railings and posts with 80-grit sandpaper. You should sand in the direction of the wood grain to avoid damaging the timber. When sanding your deck, use medium pressure and aim for an even sand. Pressing too hard with a sander can damage decks, as most are softwoods.

Before installing a deck, you must build a base for the deck to rest upon, often made of compacted soil or gravel. While gravel is an optional material, it helps with drainage. Some contractors also recommend installing a weed control membrane, which helps provide a solid foundation for the frame. In the case of an elevated deck, a pro will often lay down a concrete slab as a foundation. 

The overhang, or nosing, of deck steps is another area that will be covered in building code requirements. The noses on your deck steps should have a minimum overhang of ¾ inch. For safety, usability, and code compliance, the nosing of deck steps should not extend past 1¼ inches.

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.

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.
