Q: What is the best homemade deck cleaner?

• <div><p>If you want to make a deck cleaner from products already in your home, there are various options. The most common is to use a gentle blend of 1 gallon of warm water and 2 tablespoons of ammonia-free dish soap. You can also mix water with distilled vinegar. Sprinkling on some baking soda can help to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-remove-mold.htm">remove mold</a> and mildew. You can add oxygen bleach (but never damaging chlorine bleach) to the water and ammonia-free dish soap solution for something a bit stronger. </p></div>

Q: How long does a pressure-treated decking last?

• <div><p>Pressure-treated decks last 15 to 20 years on average, but with proper maintenance, you could get 40 to 50 years of value from yours. Reseal your deck every one to two years, and replace old or rotted wood as soon as possible to avoid structural damage. Where you live plays a role in the lifespan of your deck. Intense sunlight, rainfall, wind, and hail can reduce the deck&rsquo;s lifespan.</p></div>

Q: How does a new deck or porch affect home value?

• <div><p>Increases livable area and enhances aesthetic, often boosting property appeal.</p></div>

Q: Why does my deck pop and not my neighbor’s?

• <div><p>Your deck may pop, and your neighbor&rsquo;s deck may not for a number of reasons. Whether or not a deck pops will depend on how it was made, the conditions it&rsquo;s exposed to, and the materials. Improper spacing is a common reason for increased pressure between deck boards. Moisture penetration is another. </p></div>

Q: When is a deck railing required and how high does it need to be?

• <div><p>Building codes for deck railings can vary by location, so it's important to consult your local regulations before construction. Generally, a guardrail is required for any deck that is more than 30 inches above the ground.</p><p>For residential properties, the standard minimum height for a deck railing is 36 inches. However, some states and municipalities have stricter requirements; for example, California and Washington mandate railings that are at least 42 inches high. Therefore, a 42-inch railing is not considered too high and may be required in your area or chosen voluntarily for additional safety.</p><p>In addition to height requirements, codes also specify other safety features, such as the maximum spacing between balusters to ensure they are close enough to prevent a child from squeezing through.</p></div>

Grew up as a rural, SW Minnesota farm boy. Husband, Dad, Pastor, Coffeehouse Owner, and All-Around Repair Man. Will work hard with character, integrity, and honesty. I'll fix it, clean it, remove it and get out of your way for you to enjoy your day or evening again, with your family, friends, and loved ones.\n\nQuick fixes, stressful messes, and leftover junk and demo work is what I love to help with. Depending on the size of the project, it may take me a few days, but it will all be done with as much excellence as possible.

"I found him hard to work with (e.g. doesn't listen, pushy about doing it his way.) I was really hesitant after the estimate but he just kept pushing about it and I didn't have any other options - but I was sorry afterwards. I don't really like it, the quality doesn't seem great - but most important, it's not level. Drives me crazy and looks bad - just three panels and it's not level! Makes me nuts looking at it - feels like I threw my money away."
