"Should have seen the red flags. Needed gutters replaced, gutter helmet, some facia, attic vent, some repair where new and old roof meet. Salesperson rescheduled 3 times. Felt rushed to make decision that day. Was told 2 to 4 weeks. After 4 weeks was told 6 to 8 weeks. We kept calling. Was 6 months when crew came out. Noticed gutter helmet being wrong color. Salesperson checked wrong color on order which we didnt know because we were not told the name of the color. She showed us a gutter helmet that matched our shingles but when installed it wasnt the same. Looked silver, not charcoal black/gray. Halfway through installing, had an area on gutter leaking. Donavan put caulk where leaking. Next rain, still leaking. Donavan put more caulking. Next rain, still leaking. Donavan came out another time and replaced corner gutter piece. Half hour after he left, started raining. Still leaking, but worse. We looked closer at installation of gutter and noticed corner piece lower than gutter on each side. And gutters did not have a gradual slope to downspout. Water puddling in corner. We've contacted Donavan 3 times and was told he would replace this section. He still hasn't fixed this. We've called twice to Tom and left messages with no response. When a woman, Laura called for us to give them a rating for their work, I told her all of the above. She seemed to want to quickly get off the phone with me. She said she would put in a service request. Its been a while and have not heard from anyone. Still have leaking gutter. Hopefully the BBB can help me. Other than this leaking gutter section, no other problems. After filing a complaint they finally came out and fixed it. It just seemed like I had to tell them I would be filing a complaint before they would come out to fix it."

"He gave me a quote and did exactly what he said he was going to do. He was clear about to procedure and what he needed to do. It was nice and clean after the service, I didn't have to do any touch ups or clean ups. I was so happy with the results, I hired him to complete resurface my driveway."

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

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.

Before installing a deck, you must build a base for the deck to rest upon, often made of compacted soil or gravel. While gravel is an optional material, it helps with drainage. Some contractors also recommend installing a weed control membrane, which helps provide a solid foundation for the frame. In the case of an elevated deck, a pro will often lay down a concrete slab as a foundation. 

If you want to make a deck cleaner from products already in your home, there are various options. The most common is to use a gentle blend of 1 gallon of warm water and 2 tablespoons of ammonia-free dish soap. You can also mix water with distilled vinegar. Sprinkling on some baking soda can help to remove mold and mildew. You can add oxygen bleach (but never damaging chlorine bleach) to the water and ammonia-free dish soap solution for something a bit stronger. 

Most building codes require that railing spindles (also known as balusters) on decks or stairs be spaced no more than four inches apart. This safety standard is often called the '4-inch sphere rule,' which means a sphere with a 4-inch diameter should not be able to pass through the opening between balusters. This rule is in place to prevent small children and pets from slipping through the railing. For the same reason, the space between the bottom rail and the deck or floor surface 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 essential to check your local building codes to ensure compliance before starting your project.

Yes, pressure washing a wood deck can be a good idea as it effectively lifts ingrained dirt, mold, and mildew, improving the deck's appearance and longevity. However, it must be done carefully, as it's easy to damage the wood, especially softwoods. To pressure wash safely, use a lower pressure setting and a wide, 40-degree fan pattern nozzle (often white). Keep the nozzle at least a foot away from the wood surface and maintain constant motion, avoiding hovering in one spot to prevent gouging.
