"Luke was a gift! He responded quickly to my call and was able to start painting two days later. 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."

"I recently had my driveway and the exterior of my house pressure washed, and I couldn’t be more pleased! From start to finish, the experience was truly exceptional. First, the team was punctual and professional, arriving right when they said they would. They walked me through the process, answered all my questions, and made sure I felt comfortable with what they were about to do. Their attention to detail was evident; my driveway had years of grime and stains, but after they were finished, it looked practically brand-new. The same goes for my house — the siding is spotless, and it really freshened up the entire look of my home. What really impressed me, though, was the customer service. Everyone was friendly and polite, and they took care not to disturb my landscaping or leave any mess behind. They also followed up after the job to make sure I was satisfied, which shows how much they care about their customers. In short, if you’re looking for a pressure washing service they deliver"

"Dewayne is a very personable contractor. He is still working on our porch because he is so meticulous about his work that he takes the extra time to make sure every little thing is perfect. I appreciate his suggestions and ideas, because I don't have a clue about different types of wood, stain, etc. He is doing a great job!!"

Deck Maintenance questions, 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.

Floating decks are a cost-effective and versatile option, but they come with some compromises. Since they sit on smaller footings instead of being deeply anchored, they’re more likely to shift over time, especially in areas with heavy rainfall or freeze-thaw conditions. Their low-to-the-ground design makes them more susceptible to moisture buildup and potential water damage.

It depends on the type of wood. The average cost to build a deck out of pressure-treated lumber is $15 to $25 per square foot, but more affordable varieties such as bamboo and cedar cost less at around $3 to $10 per square foot. However, when comparing the cost of vinyl decking versus wood decking, it’s important to also consider ongoing maintenance costs. For example, most woods require regular sealing to keep them protected against weather and rot.

Deck skirting shouldn’t touch the ground, especially if you have a wood deck, which is vulnerable to moisture. Ideally, you should leave at least 3/4 of an inch of space between the deck skirting and the ground for more ventilation. Pros also recommend that you incorporate about 1 square foot of space for ventilation for the underside of the deck to every 150 square feet of decking. Proper ventilation prevents mold growth and rot that can damage your deck.

Most building codes list a minimum width of 36 inches and a maximum height of 7¾ inches. However, for the most comfort and spaciousness, you’ll want to aim for a width of at least 48 inches and a height of 7 inches. Again, it’s always a good idea to base your numbers off steps that you already use comfortably.
