"HomeCare Maintenance powerwashed my deck, pergola, chimney, lattice, and the back of my house. Peter replaced 3 deck boards that were weak. He cut back the overgrowth around the lattice, stained the deck and sealed the chimney. I will be using HomeCare Maintenace again."

"Jerry and Amanda did an amazing job bringing life back into our deck. We honestly thought it was time to bite the bullet and rebuild it. So glad we chose to give renew a try. Took our old moldy dull deck and gave it a great new look and another ten years."

"Joshua was over-the-top from the first phone call! Very professional, knowledgeable, customer-oriented, and amazingly enthusiastic about our project (which involved a leaking roof, damaged ceiling, damaged flooring, poor water pressure, the list goes on and on!). As young, unexperienced rental owners living 3 hours away, we could've easily been taken advantage of. Instead, we found an intuitive contractor who quite simply blew our highest expectations out of the water!! He quoted a ridiculously reasonable price and stuck with that price, even when the job involved more than expected. I am limited by length...HIRE SUPERIOR SERVICE USA!!!"

"Jesse and his crew were able to replace my deck posts in one day. I thought it would take several days. Was so happy with the work I kept him on to replace my decking too. The design of the decking was awesome! Have a couple of other jobs that I m going to have Jesse do. Very blessed to have come across Jesse and his company. Very respectful and pleasing to work with. Love what he does for Veterans too."

"Eric and his crew did truly exceptional work and built a 20x20 outbuilding for us. Eric was very reliable and came on time and completed the work as expected. He returned texts and phone calls promptly. He contracted the whole project and his concrete, electrical and HVAC people were all top notch and there were no delays - everything went smooth! We are very pleased with our building and highly recommend Mid west Dirtworks for any project."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Typically, most residential wooden decks are designed to support approximately 40 pounds per square foot, including the deck’s weight and any items placed on it. While this is fine for typical use, it is usually not enough to hold the weight of a hot tub filled with water and people. To safely support a hot tub, your wood deck will likely require reinforcement. Therefore, it’s best to have a contractor or a structural engineer assess it before hot tub installation.

The best direction for a gate to swing depends on its location and purpose, but swinging inward is the general rule. An inward swing is often considered safer, prevents the gate from opening into public spaces like a sidewalk, and may be required by local building codes.

There are exceptions and specific considerations. If your property is on a slope, an inward swing might not be possible. For a deck gate, it's safest to have it swing away from any steps. In a backyard, the direction can be a matter of preference, though an inward swing can be helpful when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.

Regardless of direction, ensure the gate can open fully without hitting any objects or blocking spaces. While an inward swing is standard, a gate that can swing both in and out offers the most flexibility if your setup allows for it.

Covering your deck with a breathable tarp can protect it from snow, ice, and cold winter temperatures. This is a good winterizing solution if you don’t plan to use your deck at all during the colder months. However, it might be best to skip the tarp if you’ll still be walking on your deck or using it in a limited capacity.

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.

Yes, and in some cases, frozen ground may improve the digging process for footings due to sturdier conditions. It’s easier than working in muddy conditions, which are more common in the spring. Contractors may use machinery that makes this step a breeze, so harder ground shouldn’t affect the building process.
