"Nick at Hometime Construction promptly came out to assess our gutter project and then gave us a fair estimate. He was kind, knowledgeable and knew exactly what to do and how to do it. Within an acceptable amount of time Nick and Jeremiah came out and replaced a large section of damaged gutter and beautifully cleaned and “straightened up”gutter that was disheveled and debris filled and then also dug 2 trenches with pop ups for drainage. They did a complete job; paying attention to detail and then also cleaning up with disposal of debris. We couldn’t be more pleased with the results we got using Hometime Construction. We will definitely call them again for the next project. Great experience for us."

"I went well. Professional. Friendly. Quality work. Was able to do work promptly after scheduling. Gutters looked beautiful. Used very quality gutter guards installed with no gaps or holes. Crew took time to make sure the job was done right and even went so far as to fix problems my roofers ignored and covered up. Couldn't be happier."

"We hired them to help us with the remodel and reconstruction of our cottage and they installed new windows and doors, siding and soffit, built a new deck with handrail and also demolished our garage and built a new one for us complete. We were very pleased with the quality of the workmanship and the time frame things were completed. Pricing was very fair and Aaron was very good at communicating with any issues that may have arrived. We would definitely use them again if or when the need arises. We would recommend them for any project you may have."

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

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.

The best way to sand a deck is by cleaning it, sanding the boards and stairs with 60- or 80-grit sandpaper, and sanding the railings and posts with 80-grit sandpaper. You should sand in the direction of the wood grain to avoid damaging the timber. When sanding your deck, use medium pressure and aim for an even sand. Pressing too hard with a sander can damage decks, as most are softwoods.

Cold temperatures can make your deck boards contract. If they don’t contract evenly, they can put pressure on the deck screws and cause them to pop out, making a noticeable sound. Winterizing your deck can help prevent this from happening.

Decks are generally more expensive to build because they require elevating and railings. The difference between decks and patios is that decks are elevated, while patios are usually on the ground level. Plus, decks are usually made of wood and need more maintenance than most patios. However, decks and patios serve the same purpose, providing outdoor space for you to enjoy.

Although composite decking is extremely durable, it’s also susceptible to extreme heat. Prolonged exposure to sunlight can cause fading, warping, and cracking. Composite also retains heat more than wood, which makes it dangerous to walk on in the summer. You can help prevent heat damage by only building with composite in shaded areas or using rugs to cover the hottest spots.
