"Mr. Sam Burnes did an excellent job repairing the leak in my roof and the water stains on my dining room ceiling. He went right to work and completed the job while he was here. It is refreshing to get professional services at a reasonable price. I will definitely call Mr. Sam for any future repair services. Highly recommend you hire him."

"Russell was â  hands onâ  supervising the work, very courteous and straightforward and the work was done quickly and well. He also did some minor roof repairs on our second house and did it very well also. We will hire him in a heartbeat should we need any roofing work in the future."

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

Yes, it is generally safe to have a fire pit on a deck, but you must adhere to building codes and take several safety precautions. For both built-in and freestanding models, you must use a heat-resistant barrier, such as a fire pit pad or heat shield, between the pit and the deck. Additionally, consider the weight of the fire pit and ensure your deck can structurally support it, reinforcing it if necessary. The fire pit must also be positioned a safe distance from your house, particularly from materials like vinyl siding, to prevent heat damage.

A deck that isn’t attached to a house is called a floating or freestanding deck. These standalone decks are built near ground level, so they usually don’t need deck stairs. Some don’t even require permits. Generally speaking, building a floating deck is faster and more DIY-friendly than constructing one that’s connected to your home.

Increases livable area and enhances aesthetic, often boosting property appeal.

Building a deck isn't too hard if you’re handy with carpentry, have the necessary tools, and are willing to put effort into it. However, other factors, such as plans, permits, and design, can be hard if you don’t have experience in those areas.

Note: You’ll need another person to help you build the deck (especially for framing and setting the beams). Building a deck yourself will be very difficult if you don’t have an extra set of hands to help.

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.
