We specialize in those projects not large enough for frame to finish builders and too big for the average handyman, like kitchen and bath renovations, decks and porches, heat pump installations, tile work and cabinetry just to name a few. Diversity and experience are the benchmarks of our success. Decades of trades work leads to refined skills from conception and design to intricate finishes. I spent years as an electrician before advancing into general contracting and whole home renovations. This allows me to handle all tasks on any given project rather than involving multiple costly sub-contractors. We take pride in the level of communication and involvement given to our customers, empowering them to be involved and make informed choices leading to the upmost satisfaction with the final product. Quality and attention to detail never waiver in our approach to contracting, simply put we will not cut corners to cover cost. Customer satisfaction is the most important metric by which we measure successful outcomes. My father tought me the trades and his father taught him so the tradition of Mainers helping neighbors and being accountable are values deeply ingrained in my work and way of life. Let us help you get your "to do".....done. -Carpentry -Electrical -Plumbing -Renovations -Heat pumps (mini-splits) -Kiitchens (including custom countrrtops in any finish, custom cabinetry, tile and even design -Baths -Decks, porches, patios and hardscapes -Painting -Drywall -Repairs - as well as all other services you may need !

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Several types of porches are available to meet your needs and style preferences. Some common porch types include:

  • Porticos are essentially a roof over a walkway leading to the home's front entrance. 

  • Sunrooms are closed-in porches that are an extension of the house with glass or plastic panels that allow optimal sunlight. 

  • Wraparound porches extend around the entire home, or at least the front and one side, and offer multiple entrances to the house.

  • Back porches are an extension of the home’s floor into the outdoors. These offer more protection and privacy than a deck.

With proper maintenance, the average life span of a screened-in porch is six to eight years for the screens themselves, but the foundation and structure can last for 50 to 100 years. To keep your screened-in porch in good shape, clean your porch screens regularly, patch holes, re-seal the wood as needed, and address any foundational issues right away.

Both deck footings and deck posts help prop up your deck. However, footings are the bottommost parts of a deck that touch the ground. They’re usually made of concrete. Posts are pieces of wood that attach to the top of the footings with brackets. They run upwards and connect to the underside of your deck to support its weight.

How long deck boards last largely depends on the type of wood and if it's treated or not. Untreated boards last anywhere from ten to 30 years, assuming proper care and maintenance. Treated boards can last up to 50 years. Composite boards also tend to last longer than pure wood boards.

To maximize the utility of space under a deck, it’s important to keep this area dry and clean. One way to prevent the area from becoming too wet is to install an under-deck draining system. This affordable home upgrade channels water away from the deck and provides usable space for storage or a functional area below a second-story deck. Not only will this be a useful maintenance upgrade, it can boost your home’s property value.
