"Mr. Gurley, called me on Tuesday about the job, came out Wednesday to look at what was needed, and on Thursday the job was done. He was professional and explained what the best product was for the job, and he even showed up early. I had called various handymen and appliance repair places, and used another app to find someone to complete the project. Besides one other handyman who quoted me 3xs as much without even looking at the job, Mr. Gurley was the only other handyman who even offered to give me an estimate. Truly grateful to Mr. Gurley and will be contacting him again for other projects in the future."

I sent Daniel a message on Angie's List, he replied to the message (that night) and he called me the next day.  He came over and gave me a quote and the following day they did the job.  They were very professional, very skilled, very quick and their equipment looks very advance, therefore they had no hiccups in the job process. The work was excellent.  Normally when someone pressure washed my house, they would be here all day, sometimes equipment failure, and not do an excellent job. I will be calling him next spring to wash my house.

Deck Repair FAQs, answered by experts

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. 

Yes, you can draw your own deck plans in many cases. However, you must know your local building codes and be familiar with carpentry principles. Even then, it's always best to run your plans by a professional contractor with experience building decks, whether you choose to DIY some of the build or not.

Routine cleaning, sealing/staining, and inspection prolong deck life and appearance.

Most building codes require that spindles or balusters on deck and stair railings be spaced no more than four inches apart. This safety standard, often called the '4-inch sphere rule,' is designed to prevent small children or pets from slipping through the railing. A good way to visualize this is that a 4-inch sphere should not be able to pass between two spindles. For the same safety reason, the space between the bottom rail and the deck floor should also be no more than four inches. As a general guideline, professionals often install three balusters per foot of railing. However, since specific requirements can vary by location, it is crucial to check your local building codes to ensure compliance before starting your project.

Many composite decking manufacturers, including the popular Trex brand, offer warranties that protect against warping under specific conditions. These warranties typically last between 20 and 50 years, but they usually exclude claims related to improper installation of the product. Some manufacturer warranties only cover decks built by certified professionals.
