"Andy did an outstanding of stripping 150 years of paint off the Marshall Point Light in Port Clyde, Maine. The metal was taken down to bright with all paint and extensive rust being removed. This was coordinated with the painters who primed it as soon as it dried. All residue was caught and collected in tarps for proper disposal. No dust was produced. The brickworks and granite blocks were also cleaned down to original surface for priming and recoating. The job was completed timely despite inclement weather. I highly recommend Andy and Aqua Terra for any such project."

"I hired Stuart's Painting for deck repair, re-staining, house painting, and ceiling repair. The work was done very quickly and professionally. The price was more than fair and they were reasonably within their initial estimate when the work was done. My deck and house look were looking in rough shape, and now it all looks great again. Highly recommend this company."

"We recently had a deck built by Full Service Construction/Reilly Builders. From beginning to end, working with Rick Reilly and Dana Frank was a great experience. They did a great job with their estimate, giving us several options which was very helpful to us. Their quality of work, friendliness and willingness to make minor changes trusted the process was OUTSTANDING. I have plans to use them in the future and would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone. They are people trying to make a living and doing so with out tucking it to the consumer they offer a fair price and quality work. Thank You Dave & Linda"

Deck Cleaning questions, answered by experts

Most building codes require that spindles or balusters on deck and stair railings be spaced no more than four inches apart. This safety standard, often called the '4-inch sphere rule,' is designed to prevent small children or pets from slipping through the railing. A good way to visualize this is that a 4-inch sphere should not be able to pass between two spindles. For the same safety reason, the space between the bottom rail and the deck floor 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 crucial to check your local building codes to ensure compliance before starting your project.

Rotting wood, loose railings, or unstable stairs may indicate a need for expertise.

Local building codes don’t specify the number of steps a deck can have before a railing is required, mainly because stair height varies widely. Most areas require decks 30 inches or higher to have a railing. While not exact, that roughly equates to four to seven steps.

Applying too much sealer to a deck might seem like extra protection, but it can cause more harm than good. Wood is a porous material with a limited capacity to absorb liquids. When you go overboard with sealer, the excess can't soak in and instead forms a film on the surface. This leftover layer is prone to peeling, cracking, and trapping moisture, ultimately defeating the purpose of sealing in the first place. 

Always sand a deck before repainting so the wood is smooth and ready for paint. While you do not need to fully remove paint before repainting, sanding helps remove any areas with weather and sun damage. Sanding also helps remove chipped or flaking paint and opens the wood pores to improve paint adhesion.
