"I hired them to put up a chain link fence. The project went great, Mike was great to work with, and we liked the final result so much we are having them redo our deck and install a pergola next."

"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 Maintenance questions, answered by experts

When installing deck boards, screws are generally a better option than nails. Screws offer superior holding strength over time, keeping the boards securely in place. In contrast, nails are more likely to pop out, which can create a tripping hazard. While you can use either, we recommend using 3-inch galvanized deck screws. To minimize the risk of cracking the wood, it's a good practice to drill small pilot holes before driving the screws into the deck joists.

A sunroom will add more value to your home than a deck, but with a much higher up-front cost. Depending on its construction and function, a sunroom may be counted as additional living space, while a deck is strictly an outdoor feature. Both will increase your home’s value, but the sunroom will have a much bigger effect.

Before installing any materials under the deck for removing moisture, you should perform some prep work on the ground. Work the dirt under the deck to create a grade away from the home. A grade of at least six inches for every 10 feet works well. Do not leave a gap between the dirt and the home’s foundation where water could pool. Once you or a contractor regrades the dirt under the deck, you then can add materials over the top.

Composite decking may never warp, or it may warp quickly. Several factors can influence the rate of warping, including the material's quality, installation method, and installation location. Generally speaking, high-quality materials that have been installed properly are drastically less prone to warping.

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.
