"If anyone is in need of any type of deck work I highly recommend Mr. Frank Oliva and his Deck Solutions Team at 301-792-1117. They recently restored my deck expertly and was very pleased with every aspect of their work, (reviewing products, installation, pricing and warranty). They were extremely courteous, responsive, punctual and professional!"

"I purchased a coupon for 3 hours of handyman services at a discount (additional time was paid at the regular hourly rate, which was comparable to or lower than the other services I received estimates from). Scheduling was easy - they were flexible on dates and had availability when we needed it (they were able to get someone out quicker than several others I called, which was important as we were preparing for a special event). The quality of the work was excellent. The handyman was very pleasant and professional. He arrived right on time and assessed the work to be done and came up with a shopping list. My one concern was the amount of time it took to shop for supplies - the Home Depot is 10-15 minutes from our house, but he was gone for close to 2 hours picking up the supplies - so the better part of the 3 hours we purchased in advance was consumed in shopping. I got worried that perhaps he was lost or having some difficulty so I called the office - they checked on him and indicated that he had to wait for a pallet of lattice to be brought in. It still seemed like a long time given that the shopping list was relatively small. The deck was a bigger job than I thought - he took time and care measuring, cutting and fitting the lattice to do the job correctly, which I appreciated. As a result of the extended shopping time and the size of the deck job, the work took substantially longer than anticipated, which meant it cost much more than expected. I recognize that this was partly due to the scope being larger than I thought, which I have no problem with - but the duration of the shopping trip honestly left me feeling like I did not get the full value of the coupon. In addition to the labor, I received an itemized receipt for the supplies. I had a couple of questions, which they quickly responded to. They removed the charge for an item that was purchased but not used. They were very professional and easy to work with. I would definitely recommend them and I would definitely use them again, although I would try to purchase supplies in advance if possible.

"Initially, things went extremely well and I waited as long as I could before submitting the report in order to give them the opportunity to address an outstanding concern. I chose this provider because of the combination of reputation/price/scheduling. They were able to get the deck finished sooner than the other contractors. In fact, they were able finish before the contract date and we had use of the deck for labor day. However, there is a wobbly post that was brought to Marty's attention on 9/3. Not a major issue, and up to that point he had been very responsive so I didn't think too much about it when I gave him the final payment. He stated it was a 10 min fix and he would be by that next Tuesday to complete it. That week went by without a word so I called him and he promised that it would be complete by the next Wed. Not a word from him, so I sent him an email and he left me a voicemail stating it would be done the next Wed. Again, not a phone call/email, no communication. Essentially, I've had virtually no communication with Home Deck since they've received final payment. Being a sales professional myself, lack of communication is one of the fastest ways to erode customer confidence. This is a "10 min fix" and it's been almost a month. So naturally, there is concern that if there was a major issue with the deck, we'd be on our own. In their defense, they have stated that they stand by their work. We just haven't seen it in practice yet."

FAQs for deck maintenance projects in Fairmount Heights, MD

There are a few ways to make your deck look new without professional power washing. First, you can use either store-bought cleaners or dish soap and water to mop your deck regularly to clean off accumulated dirt. To clean your deck and remove mold, mix two gallons of warm water with a ½ cup of distilled white vinegar or apple cider vinegar, rinse the area, and then scrub with a stiff-bristled broom.

The cost to professionally pressure wash your deck is $150 on average. This cost can range from $100 to $600, depending on the size of your deck and its condition. 

For an average deck of about 300 square feet, you can expect to pay around $100. However, if you have a spacious 1,000-square-foot deck or more, expect that cost to be closer to $300 to $400. Likewise, if it’s been a long time since you deep cleaned your deck, the deck professional might need extra time and to use deck-specific detergent, which will increase the overall cost.

You should have your deck professionally cleaned twice a year—once in the spring and once in the fall. A springtime cleaning wipes away grime and mold that accumulated during the wet winter months, making it sparkly clean for summer use. Likewise, cleaning your deck in the fall allows you to wash away grease and leftover mess from the fun summer months rather than letting them soak into your deck over the winter.

Yes, you need to thoroughly clean the deck surface before staining your deck. Dirt, debris, and mildew can settle on the surface of your wood. If you do not properly clean it, these stains will get trapped between the wood and the stain. Not only does this present an unsightly surface, but your wood will only partially be protected by the stain, meaning you'll need to stain again sooner.

There are ways to clean your deck to help maintain a clean appearance. You can easily remove surface-level dirt and grime by wetting your deck with a hose and doing a quick scrub with store-bought deck cleaner monthly. 

However, investing in professional deck cleaning services near you at least twice a year is worth it. This service saves you time and ensures that your deck will avoid accidentally becoming scratched by blasting the pressure washer at the wrong angle.
