"Gary and his team did a great job replacing the long stairway and steps to my rooftop deck. Everything from the estimate through completion of the project was professionally handled. The end result looks great. Highly recommend them."

"The technician, Harley, came to my house on a Sunday, since that was the most convenient day for my availability.  We reviewed the various jobs, and he made a detailed list of what was needed.  I had already bought some of the supplies with the intention of doing the work myself: the handicap grab bar and the chandelier (it had been in the box in my garage for 3 years, but I was anxious about having my husband climb a tall ladder and mess around with wiring.)  
On his return visit, the service technician brought all the tools & supplies to do the work. There was a lot of work, and although he spent several hours, everything was done quickly and efficiently, and he cleaned up everything completely.  I was impressed.
 Then I asked Harley to look at the exterior of the North (shady) side of my house, where wood rot has deteriorated the siding.  He pointed out things I had missed, and then measured and calculated, and put together a very comprehensive quote for the replacement & repairs.  I'm looking forward to having him come back to do that big job before snowy weather sets in.

"Cleaned gutters on two story colonial and also gutters on addition and two car garage.  Several gutters were badly in need of cleaning/unclogging.  Also, Vince adjusted several downspouts, added support brackets, and repaired a few supports on gutters.  We are very pleased with the work."

"Painters arrived exactly on time and accomplished all tasks the same day. The manually stripped the deck and applied two coats of stain. They carefully cleaned and then painted the foundation concrete as it had got dirty over the years. They also scraped, caulked and painted a large bump-out window off our living room.

"As in their name they really did come out the next day. Everyone was very friendly and they did a great job of (soft) power washing the house. The difference after they were done was significant. One thing I would say is be sure to know what they are including in the price they quote you. I didn't realize that the price quoted on the phone was just for the siding and didn't include the brick portion of the house which I then paid extra for. It was made clear to me on the phone that the deck was separate and I would get a quote when they came out which they did. I elected to wait on that to be able to compare prices. Overall I would recommend and use them again. I would be sure though to be clear on what was included because as I noted I was expecting the entire house to be cleaned for the price I was quoted. The price I paid included the siding, the additional cost for brick, including along the driveway and around garage and around stairs, and a small additional amount for pavers underneath the deck (which looked new when they were done)."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Yes, designing builds to fit space constraints and meet functional needs.

If you want to make a deck cleaner from products already in your home, there are various options. The most common is to use a gentle blend of 1 gallon of warm water and 2 tablespoons of ammonia-free dish soap. You can also mix water with distilled vinegar. Sprinkling on some baking soda can help to remove mold and mildew. You can add oxygen bleach (but never damaging chlorine bleach) to the water and ammonia-free dish soap solution for something a bit stronger. 

No, your deck will not rot under artificial grass as long as it is installed properly. When installed correctly, the artificial grass features a drainage system that prevents rotting. Simply laying artificial grass on top of the decking without proper installation will not lead to an effective drainage system that prevents rotting.

For the best results, stay off of your deck for at least 48 hours after sealing it. Giving the sealant at least two full days to cure ensures it can fully penetrate the wood, giving you the most protection from sun and weather damage later on. Walking on the deck too soon can prevent it from properly curing and cause your deck to weather prematurely.

Yes, but ensuring the deck has a solid foundation with adequate footings is critical before building, as the weight of a sunroom will put significant pressure on the structure below. Even if your deck is properly constructed, it may not be able to handle the extra weight. While some basic, lightweight, prefabricated sunrooms can sit on a deck with a strong existing foundation without additional supports, in many cases, the foundation and joists will need reinforcement. It is always best to have a structural engineer perform an inspection to evaluate the deck's quality and structural integrity. A professional can help you decide if reinforcement is sufficient or if it's better to tear down the deck and start over.
