"Mike and his guys were amazing. They started on a Wednesday and on a Friday. They replaced my privacy fence, fixed my deck by replacing joist and deck boards along with the rail that went around my deck. They also trimmed the tree for me while they were here, not only was the work amazing but the cleanup was impeccable. They cleaned up everything every night and made sure things were safe for my dog to be in the backyard as he is deaf and mostly blind."

"Zed's is outstanding. I got multiple quotes for washing the exterior of our home and Zed's was the best priced, so I went with them. I am very happy that I did. Our place hadn't been cleaned for years, and needed it badly. Joe, the owner, did the work and did an excellent job. He was very thorough and our place looks like new. His work ethic was top notch, he was on time and worked hard, and he's very friendly. We will definitely use him again. We can't recommend Joe, and Zed's, highly enough."

"I hired Franz and Robert to repair damaged plaster that had been a chronic problem. They arrived on time and had the problem fixed in one day. They cleaned up beautifully. I cannot tell that there had ever been a problem. I plan to hire them again for other plaster damage in the near future."

"TruePro Home Painters did an excellent job painting the interior of my home. He was very professional from our initial meeting to discuss the project through to completion. Chris communicated clearly about scheduling and was able to complete the work in a timely manner even though it was a one man operation. He took great care prepping each room and applying the paint smoothly and evenly. The end result looks beautiful the walls have an even coat of paint and the color match is spot on. Chris took care to fully protect floors, windows and fixtures as well. He cleaned up meticulously after finishing each room. I was really impressed by Chris' painting skills and ability to tackle this project solo. His work is high quality and he stands behind it. I would gladly recommend Chris for any interior painting needs. His prices were very fair for the great work. I will definitely hire him again in the future."

Deck Cleaning questions, answered by experts

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. 

Whether you need a permit depends on the deck design and local regulations. Most areas mandate a building permit if the deck is over a specific height or if it's attached to a pre-existing structure. Shorter, freestanding decks may not require a permit, but you should check with local zoning ordinances and your homeowners association for specifics.

Footings for ground-level decks need to be at least 12 inches deep, and some areas require them to be even deeper. A standard range for deck footings is anywhere from 12 to 48 inches. The minimum footing depth is determined by an area’s frost line and soil conditions. If you’re unsure how deep to install deck footings, check local building codes to find the minimum footing depth in your area. 

Yes, you can build a pool deck yourself, but it takes precision, a lot of time, and many specific tools. You’ll need to create a deck plan, be careful with measurements, cut each piece of wood, secure the pieces properly, and ensure the deck meets building codes. Building a deck around a pool is a rewarding DIY, but it’s time- and labor-intensive, so thoughtfully consider your abilities and the time you have before embarking on this DIY.

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.
