"Iâ m looking for a certain look for a deck. They only showed basic decks, but nothing that was to my liking. It was like an Amway presentation! More on how great their company is and not having enough variety of choices on designs. The salespersons was professional and kind."

"Really enjoyed the interaction with Jake and his brother, the work crew. Home Depot goofed up the first paint color, but we decided to do two coats, so the goofed up color worked as a good base to the final color. Have mixed reviews on whether the roof leaks a bit more by the clear panels now, but we would call this company to fix the issue if we identify any problem."

"Outstanding. Rick and his team did an amazing job. They communicated through out the whole process. Finished on time even with a humidity challenge, not their fault. The baseboards looked amazing, and you couldn't even see where the walls needed repaired."

I could not have been more pleased with a business.  What was done?  Well, here's the list:

  1. 1.  Repaired all marred walls and fixed cracks and holes.
  2. 2.  Covered everything to keep paint and primer off our belongings.
  3. 3.  Sanded all rough areas to a smooth finish.
  4. 4.  Professionally primed everything.
  5. 5.  Professionally painted everything.
  6. 6.  Cleaned up daily.
  7. 7.  Removed all painting materials from our property when finished.

I cannot say enough about the excellent quality of the job which was done.  Changing the woodwork, doors, and stairway spindles from a dark brown to antique white was quite a job.  It took a few days, but it was worth the awesome results. 

The guys (painting crew & owner) were very accommodating to my husband and me.  If we saw something to fix, it was done.  They were always pleasant.  I would hire them again in a heartbeat if I ever need something else painted.

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

Staining and sealing the underside of a deck creates a moisture barrier but traps water in the boards, quickly leading to rot. No matter how well you seal the above deck, water still gets through via nails and screw heads on the surface. Allow this water to flow naturally under the deck, where it is routed through the drainage system.

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.

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.

No, you don’t need a permit to repair and replace a few boards on an existing deck. However, if you’re making structural changes to the deck or tearing down the old one and building a new one, you will likely need a permit. Check with your local municipality for the regulations and rules in your area, or ask a local contractor who builds decks for advice.

Yes. Composite decking is resistant to moisture and freezing temperatures, so it’s an ideal material to use in particularly cold or damp seasons. You can install this type of decking throughout the year since it does not warp or split in the cold.
