"I was seeking an outside contractor to do some improvements on my home. I wanted the outside painted and was so ecstatic after seeing how the outside looked, that I wanted them also to paint some inside rooms. Awesome work and they were very attentive to my questions and concerns. There were several things that were done outside of what was requested, to my benefit. Replacing some rotten wood, molding wood in a couple areas where they noticed water was coming inside, wood borders around my outside building to make it look more appealing and even, and putting up some Sheetrock in my laundry room where there was an exposed area. The start date was supposed to be Jan 2nd, but they started almost a week earlier to do me a favor. Very nice crew and owner! Went above and beyond with everything they did. I told them I may have some more painting to be done and will definitely go with them again and will gladly refer them to others in need! Thanks for a wonderful experience!"

"Russ was professional and completed the work quickly. I called this company and he was here the next day. The bathroom fan he installed is exactly what I wanted, and he stayed with my budget. He also installed an electrical plug and cleaned up afterwards! I will definitely use This company again for sure!"

"The floor in my Mom's house had settled and needed to be raised and leveled. Eric and his employees arrived on time and completed the project on time. They completed the project to our satisfaction and cleaned up the jobsite before they left. Due to the professionalism of Eric and his employees and the how they performed the work, we have requested additional quotes for other projects."

He was professional, knowledgeable, on time and always cognizant of the fact that I was working from home while he was painting. He meticulously painted my entire house and it looks amazing. I highly recommend Luke, you will not be disappointed."

Deck Maintenance FAQs, answered by experts

It’s best to use two screws to secure deck boards into every joist. Securing the boards to every joist makes the deck more structurally sound, while using two screws on the outer sides of the boards can help prevent warping and cupping.

The cost to repair a deck is between $900 and $3,500, depending on the cause and extent of the damage. For example, fixing a sinking deck caused by pest damage can cost between $200 and $600, while replacing sinking boards costs between $500 and $4,000.

Ultimately, overapplication of stain can compromise the deck's appearance, durability, and longevity. It may result in an uneven finish, with excess stain pooling, dripping, or drying into thick patches. It can also obscure the wood's natural grain and texture, detracting from the desired aesthetic. Moreover, excessive staining may not fully penetrate the wood, leading to poor adhesion and premature wear. Additionally, thick layers of stain are prone to peeling, cracking, and blistering as they struggle to bond with the surface. 

There are a variety of second-story deck privacy ideas depending on your budget and aesthetic. For starters, you might consider fencing or tall privacy railing that masks a good portion of the open deck. A pergola or an awning can provide additional cover and shade. Outdoor curtains are an easy way to add or remove privacy at your convenience, plus they’re a wallet-friendly way to decorate your deck.

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.
