"Mitch is very personable, he is vert responsive. He does a great job at explaining all of the options and gives recommendations as to what is the best solution. He is very honest, he does exactly what he says he will do. His cost matches his estimates, no surprise charges. His crew did a great job keeping things cleaned up, and they were very respectful of our property. I would work with Mitch again without any hesitation."

"They called to say they were running late but still arrived within 15 minutes of the original schedule.  A few pleasantries were exchanged  & then I showed them the problems & they got right to work. Kept us updated as far as turning the water off & such.
We initially thought that the kitchen faucet was a repair job but when it was discovered that it needed to be replaced they gave us several options for proceeding. Time was they were completely done & cleaned up within 4 hours.  We've used Marshall Handyman previously & we were as satisfied as ever.

Deck Cleaning FAQs, answered by experts

For the best results, stay off of your deck for at least 48 hours after sealing it. Giving the sealant at least two full days to cure ensures it can fully penetrate the wood, giving you the most protection from sun and weather damage later on. Walking on the deck too soon can prevent it from properly curing and cause your deck to weather prematurely.

The proper and most comfortable height for a deck stair riser, also called a step, is between four and seven inches. A height of seven inches is often considered ideal for a strain-free step that minimizes the risk of trips and falls. While it is possible to have risers up to 12 inches, this height can be challenging for children, pets, or individuals with mobility issues. For optimal safety and comfort, pair a seven-inch riser with a tread depth (or run) of at least 10 to 12 inches. Always check your local building codes, as they may have specific requirements that differ from these general recommendations.

What goes under your floating deck depends on your preferences. Some homeowners put landscaping fabric underneath their decks to prevent weeds from popping up through the boards. Others choose to build a floating deck over grass or gravel. However, it’s best not to set your deck directly on the ground. Instead, set your deck on blocks to keep it elevated enough to prevent moisture from rotting the wood.

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.

In the majority of cases, you don’t need regulatory permission or permits to remove decking components and materials. However, the exception is if you live in or near a wildlife conservation area, which could require permits and consent prior to beginning the demolition. Check with a local regulatory agency for more information.
