"I did receive a couple bids from Home Advisors network and decided on Midwest due to the owner (Joe) stating that all my needs would be addressed which was to power wash all concrete and paver surfaces including retaining walls. He guaranteed that his price included all that I asked for with "no surprises" and I have that via email. I also was seeking a company that would be able to seal my pavers upon completion. Joe was confident that he could do all the work. What I discovered is that he had not come over to physically look at the job and relied on satellite technology which evidently did not thoroughly show all retaining walls and surfaces and how dirty they were. Hence, there was a little more work involved than what was expected which definitely did not fall on my shoulders as to if he surveyed the area by walking it before bidding. Joe's partner, Steve, did all the work and spent an entire day cleaning my very dirty concrete and paver surfaces. He put the work in but there were areas that were not situated where the dirt could drain somewhere beyond the concrete and pavers, so he just left it set on the pavers. I also didn't like that I could see exactly where he had power washed by the "water pressure strokes" on the surfaces which meant that if I could see the strokes, that implied that between the strokes dirt had been left. Those spots I had pointed out to Steve on the initial day but he said that the rain would fix them. I was also amazed that a power washing company would not have brooms to push dirty water to a drain or a hose to hose off fences, posts or whatever that had been badly soiled with the power washing. Even with all these issues that I believe a professional service would do better, the job definitely cleaned my surfaces and it looks a whole lot better; just not as good as I was hoping since this is a professional service. They did not use any cleansers on areas that had spots nor sand to fill in areas that the power wash efforts pulled up between the pavers. I contacted Joe to do some "redo" on a few spots that needed to be redone before he could apply sealant and two weeks later they were able to return and fix those issues. At that time I got to experience Joe's true business sense. He was so busy validating his work and not even giving me five minutes to share with him my perspective, and he came in the yard very defensive even though we hadn't ever met. He immediately told me that he would not be able to do the sealing job and that I would have to find someone else. He didn't say why but it was obvious that he was defensive and already negative on me and my expectations although they were valid and he did see them and took care of them. I took pictures and I wish that I could attach them here so that others could see what they thought was the finished work PRIOR TO the rework and why they needed to be addressed. The finish work does look great but Joe's approach to try to belittle or diminish others is not professional nor appreciated when it comes to customer support. When they were finished he didn't thank me for the business nor say that they believe they are good to go. I would not recommend this company more so because of the owner's attitude. They sound good but don't ask them to fix something because then they get unpleasant and just tell you that they gave you a good deal and they think the work is great.... nothing to do with how the customer feels or believes. Also they will cancel a phase of the work (such as my sealing) without hesitating or providing you with an explanation. Looking back on other reviews, I realize now that many of them are for cleaning gutters/downspouts and not power washing concrete/pavers and retaining walls or large projects such as what I had."

"Matt arrived on time and was efficient at replacing floor tiles. Do you think customer service is gone, well so did we until Matt Hemingway came to replace three broken tiles. He finished in 90 minutes and that included going back to hardware store for a different color grout because he didn't like the way it looked. When done you could not tell the floor had been fixed. Excellent job. Highly recommend."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.

A quality, well-maintained PVC decking can last 30 to 50 years. It’s known for being one of the most durable types of decking materials, with composite decking having a 25- to 30-year average lifespan and some softwood deckings only lasting 10 to 15 years. Luxury hardwood decks like Ipe may last longer than PVC decking, but they can cost more and require more maintenance.

Yes, transforming a deck into a sunroom is an absolute possibility. Building a sunroom involves framing in the deck area with walls, adding windows, and affixing a roof. This project is not an easy task, but it does provide a stylish addition to your house. Not all deck designs support this type of renovation project, so consult a professional deck builder before beginning.

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 life expectancy of deck boards varies widely based on the material, climate, and maintenance. Untreated wood boards typically last 10 to 30 years with proper care, while pressure-treated boards can last up to 50 years. Hardwoods generally outlast softwoods. Composite boards also tend to last longer than natural wood. Environmental factors like arid or humid climates can shorten a deck's lifespan. To extend the life of wood decking, it's important to consistently clean and seal it to protect against moisture, UV light, and insects.
