"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. "

Decks and Porches questions, answered by experts

Depending on how you design your balcony is the most essential factor when talking about how much your home's balcony can hold. The typical weight a balcony can support ranges between 50 and 100 pounds per square foot. However, it's possible to exceed those limitations with careful planning by a structural engineer.

To child- or pet-proof your deck railing, look for railing systems with narrow spacing—under 4 inches—between balusters or panels. For added safety, consider installing a clear acrylic or mesh guard along the inside of the railing to prevent small limbs or paws from slipping through. Avoid horizontal rails that adventurous kids can climb like ladders. You can also add self-closing gates at stair openings to limit access.

To flatten a cupped deck board, start by ensuring it’s dry. Then, try flipping the board over so the cupped side faces down and reattach it. If that’s not possible, you can use screws to pull it tighter to the joists or plane the edges slightly to reduce the cup. It’s best to replace severely cupped boards.

PVC decking can get slippery when wet because it’s made from plastic. However, composite and wood decking can also be slippery when wet. It’s best to wear shoes with grippy soles when walking on a wet deck, no matter the material, and to be extra cautious not to slip and fall down.

If you’re not an experienced DIYer, consider hiring a local patio repair contractor to rescreen your porch or sunroom. Unless you’re only repairing a small rip or hole, this project is not an easy job. A professional can also make recommendations for materials that will work best for your porch.
