"The quality of work was very good, and the workers were prompt and nice to work with. David Marshall is very easy to get ahold of and I think this is a real virtue compared to other handymen I have worked with in Duluth. They called around and found a spring to fix a very old window of ours that we have otherwise needed to replace. All of these were very positive aspects of the interaction.
My only negative comment is that one of the projects (the custom door) ended up being much more expensive than I anticipated. I think this was because one of the workers suggested something that we did not have in the quote, and I was just not prepared for the expense. I think that this is more of a communication issue than anything. I still highly recommend Marshall Handyman, but I would just be very careful to specify the price of anything if modifications are made during the repair process, especially if you are talking to an employee and not David Marshall. Otherwise, good work.

to be sure that theres an very fair priced agreement inplace to know what will be accomplish with the end result is exaclty what was discussed so going into it i know as well as yourself know and agree on the exact dollar amount that is fair or lower than most only to ensure a very stress free time as well as repeat costumers is what i look to acheive. i will not take a job that would be labeled or talked about as in "slapped together quick" i just cant do that because of how i was tought as i got more serious about what i do for somone is what they have to live with as well as i do share that feeling and i dont go home at night wondering about anyhting because when i do sothing i do it right and i do it good so that whoever its for is happy with the outcome.\ni feel that if your able to explain what you need done im confedent that the result will be just that.\nif you had water damage or any type of damage to your property i will bring it back to its origal state or you may have some add ins or more depth to the job resulting in a new and inproved type of result.\nalso lets say the way things are desighned just do quite fit your style or simply just fit objects in to anymore because familys get bigger and the house stays the same . even if you know something has to change but you have no idea what to do about it thats ok we can dicuss many types of options and ideas untill you feel or find just that perfect mixture you needed. or if you just simplely need another set of hands to get a task done quickly, safly and not pay so much that your questioning to go it aloone because i can assure you well agree on what you want im there to listen and understand your hurdles and hofully end up with you going out to shop and upon your return its finished, im gone, and its already been paid! so that you can get back to your day without any issues.\n

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

Ideally, a gate should be able to swing both in and out. However, if it can only open in one direction, it is generally best for it to swing inward. This is often the safest option, especially for deck gates near steps, as you'll want the gate to swing away from the stairs. An inward swing also prevents the gate from opening into a public space, like a sidewalk, and can be more convenient when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.

There are exceptions, however. The layout of your property may require a different approach. For example, if your property is on a slope, the gate may not be able to swing inward. You should also ensure the gate can open fully without colliding with any objects or blocking access to other areas. For a backyard garden gate where public access isn't a concern, the direction it swings is largely a matter of personal preference. Finally, always check your local building codes, as they may have specific requirements for which way a gate must swing.

Routine cleaning, sealing/staining, and inspection prolong deck life and appearance.

As with patios, there are many types of deck choices to choose from to add personalization to your home. Some common deck options include:

  • Attached decks are anchored to the home and include simple ground-level options or multi-level structures with stairways and separate landings. 

  • Detached island decks are not attached to the home; they’re a freestanding structure in the yard. 

  • Wraparound decks connect the back of the house with at least one other side and often are built with railings for safety. 

  • Multi-level decks connect your deck through varying levels of elevation, featuring landings that are attached to stairs.

It is definitely worth sanding a deck to ensure the wood absorbs new stain. Sanding a deck removes the outer layers of aging wood, allowing the stain to penetrate. It also gives a fresh look to the entire surface as part of the deck refinishing process. Without sanding, your stain or sealant is less likely to absorb into the wood. While sanding a deck is a time-intensive project, the rewards are noticeable and long-lasting.

The cost to build a second-story deck averages $4,800, though the actual price could range as low as $420 to upwards of $16,000. While labor costs range between 35% and 50% of the total project cost, the materials and complexity of design will ultimately lead you to save or spend more money on this home addition.
