Hi! I'm Ty Rykse, owner of Washed Away. We specialize in exterior cleaning for homes, patios, decks, driveways, and more. At Washed Away, we believe in doing the job right the first time and standing behind our work. Our top priority is making sure every customer is happy and that their property looks exactly how they envision it. A little about me — I’m a 21-year-old college student and college basketball player. I’ve been in the pressure washing business for over three years, during which I’ve gained hands-on experience and developed the skills to tackle a wide range of cleaning challenges. I’ve learned what works — and just as importantly, what doesn’t — to deliver high-quality results. I’d be honored to earn your business and help bring new life to your property!

"Ty communicated well, was on time, he was very personable, worked diligently, and our home looks amazing! We highly recommend him! "

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

The cost to install a porch column typically runs between $300 and $600, although it can range as low as $300 or as high as $2,500. Most homeowners will pay about $400 for a porch column. The materials you choose and whether the column is ornamental or load-bearing will impact the final cost.

If your contractor isn't sourcing your new porch columns for you, you can find them at your local home improvement store or hardware store. You can also order them online for delivery. If you want a unique look or want to save some money, you can also source porch columns from auctions and restore them before having them installed.

Start with a 60- or 80-grit sandpaper when sanding a deck, though this could change depending on the type of wood that comprises the deck and how smooth you want the overall finish. If you prioritize a smooth final finish, progress to a finer grit like 120 or 150. Avoid ultra-fine grits for traditional sanding, as it could close up the wood pores and make it harder to apply a finish down the line.

By applying protective finishes and using durable materials that withstand weather and time.

It is possible to repair wet, rotted wood, but it depends on the extent of the damage. If the wood is severely decayed, it may be necessary to replace the affected sections entirely. However, if the rot is relatively minor, you can attempt to repair it. Start by removing any wet or decayed wood, allowing the area to dry thoroughly. Then, you can apply a wood hardener or consolidant to strengthen the remaining wood fibers. Finally, use epoxy wood fillers to fill in the damaged areas, shaping and sanding them to match the original wood surface.
