"FANTASTIC! My siding is sooo clean. Exterior stairwell was filthy and now great! My garage door and composite deck look brand new! They even cleaned my sidewalks too! We're getting ready to sell our house. I'll call them for our next one! Absolutely!"

"We needed our deck power-washed and stained. The workman called and came the next day. I asked him if he could also power wash the siding. He gave me an estimate for all the work to be done, I agreed (in writing) and he set to work. He did all of the power washing that afternoon. We agreed on a stain color. He returned the next day to do the staining, which required several coats. Mr. McGavin also was there. The deck looks great and the siding is much cleaner. The men were both pleasant and careful about covering the windows and siding. I would use McGavin again."

"My deck is spotless and so is all the furniture. What typically takes me 2 days to do (a whole weekend!) they were able to knock out in around 6 hours. I was so happy I even bought the crew lunch. Highly recommended."

"Denny promptly contacted us after the initial estimate request, and did the initial walk-through of our home. Goode Design fit the work to our (short fuse) schedule, and the crew showed up on time and ready to go. Karen and I were doing some landscape work, and trying to stay out of their way. They let us know quickly that it was our home, and they would adjust to us, not vice-versa. They finished on time, applying extra coats (without any prompting), and neatly prepping the remaining paint for us. throughout the entire process, they were as much extended family as they were workers. We definitely recommend them. Thank you, Denny!

"First off, plan extra time for rain...it rained a lot during this project.  Obviously, it is impossible to restore/stain a wet deck. 

Earl and his son were fantastic.  I will definitely use his services again.  I had a deck that was an absolute mess...to the point where I thought it might make sense to tear it down and start over.  The top railings had shifted over time and were out place and many of the deck boards had huge cracks and gouges, some to the point where I think I could have gone through them if I jumped up and down.

We contacted Earl through Angie's List to come out for a quote.  He inspected the deck, let us know that the structure was sound, and that we could go many more years before considering tearing it down.  He said he could make it look like new and gave us suggestions regarding the colors that would look best with our siding/entrance to our house.  We decided to go with a darker grey on the floor boards with white on the railings.  The second color added significant painting work to the job and increased the price from $1,600 to $2,000 but was worth it.

I handed Earl a check for the first 50% and he got to the power washing within a couple of days.  There was no break in the rain for the next week, but Earl kept us in the loop regarding where we were in the queue and when we could expect to have the job worked on.  During a 1 day break in the rain he got out to our house and painted the white vertical railings and replaced the top of the railings .  For the next week it rained almost continuously.  On the next dry day Earl and his son came out and replaced many of the floor boards and stained a first coat on the base.  The next dry day, both Earl and his son were back and completed the job.

The deck looks fantastic!!!  From it's original poor condition, I couldn't imagine it would have looked so good when completed.

Earl and his son were extremely professional, hard working, and very personable.  The final product was beyond my expectations and I will definitely give Earl a call next time I need work completed.

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

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.

An above-ground pool with a deck can increase your home's value by as much as 4% to 7%, but it depends on your local climate, potential buyers, and the size and condition of your pool. Some buyers see a pool as a liability instead of a luxury, especially if it's at the end of its life span. In general, it's best to add a pool and deck to your property if it will bring you enjoyment—not because it raises the value of your home.

No, you don’t need a permit to repair and replace a few boards on an existing deck. However, if you’re making structural changes to the deck or tearing down the old one and building a new one, you will likely need a permit. Check with your local municipality for the regulations and rules in your area, or ask a local contractor who builds decks for advice.

Yes, you can attach a deck to a mobile home, but it’s important that the work be done correctly to avoid the potential for major damage to your home. Many building codes require that any additions to mobile homes—including decks—be either freestanding or have their own support structures. Getting permits may require submitting the home's original floor plan, the proposed floor plan, framing details, and more. 

No. In most cases, it’s not colder or freezing temperatures that affect decking materials but the amount of moisture that seeps into the materials as a result. For example, wood decking material is more likely to suffer from rot or decay when exposed to excess moisture from snow or ice. An extreme change in temperature can cause wood to expand or contract, but only if it’s not properly treated beforehand.
