"Before I contacted HomeAdvisor I got an estimate from another roofer reffered by my neighbor. Mike did it for 1/3 the other quote including an interior ceiling repair which the other contractor did not. Honest, Fast, Good Work, and great service."

"I was unable to be onsite when they repaired our deck, but they did a great job of communicating details about the work that needed to be done and sent pictures as well. I would, definitely, use them again."

"We contacted Home Deck Inc. for an estimate to build a deck off of the back of our house, where there was currently a small concrete landing and stairs. We also needed a small length of railing built for safety reasons (requested by our insurance company), so that no one could fall in to our basement stairwell. We had someone from Home Deck out to estimate the jobs. When I initially called, he could not come out for a couple of days due to scheduling and sounded very concerned about "losing the job" because of timing. I told him it was not a problem and scheduled for a few days later. The morning of the estimate, he called to reschedule for another day. When we finally were able to connect, he seemed knowledgeable and said we would have a written estimate within a couple of days. When we didn't receive that estimate, I contacted him by email, and he emailed it shortly after. The price was on-par with other estimates that we had gotten for the job but was still more than we had hoped to spend. The only thing we *needed* to have done was the safety railing (the deck was just something we wanted to have done), so I emailed back and asked him how much it would be to just do the safety railing. Another company quoted me about $1200.00, so this was not exactly a *small* job. Nevertheless, Home Deck Inc. never responded to my email. So they lost the job."

"Deck Cetera provided exceptional customer service.  They were prompt in scheduling the appointment, and they were able to get us on the schedule the same week.  They sent Jean to conduct the estimate, she was prompt in arriving to our home and very pleasant.  She answered all of our questions and had tons of pictures to guide us in identifying what we wanted for our deck addition. She was very knowledgable about the different decking materials and helped us in making a decision about deck material.  She was provided an estimate on the spot per our request. Additionally, she followed up with a nice drawing of our project and pricing options relative to different material . Overall this company has exceptioonal customer service, going above and beyond.  Unfortunately we decided to go with another company which provided a price more aligned with what we were planning to spend.

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Constant exposure to inclement weather conditions can damage your deck, causing it to fade, warp, or crack over time. Regular maintenance keeps it looking and performing its best. That means giving it a good cleaning and applying a quality sealant or wood treatment to help defend against moisture, sun damage, and everyday wear.

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.

Composite decking boards aren't your only options for building a deck. There are several other types of materials for decks, including wood and aluminum decking. Wood decking comes in many different wood species, offering natural beauty and classy timelessness to your yard. Aluminum is a lightweight, water-resistant, and low-maintenance material that is also non-slip.

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.

Putting lattice under a deck will create a polished look that allows for air ventilation. You can also store items underneath as the lattice provides privacy and protection from the weather. You can also put lattice under a porch to create a polished look in the front of your house.
