"All of my work with John was done over the phone including texted pictures. While phone only can be generally stressful, John went above and beyond in keeping me informed along the way. I appreciated his updates regarding his schedule (bumped EARLIER) and his detailed explanations with picture backup. He was also very budget conscious and suggested work that would help with the ongoing maintenance of the house and roof (which was also coated). I appreciated his color suggestions (I never would have picked a red roof, but I love it). It went from weathered, faded, semi-transparent olive green with a three toned green roof to solid gray with a red roof. I plan on using Professional Coatings again for future projects."

"Sheldon and his team were everything you could want in a painter. Prompt communication, fair price, good advice and excellent work. They went above an beyond to fix the little things that they found. No extra cost. They even moved the wood pile away from the deck and restacked it. High marks across the board."

"In a previous review I stated I had not heard anything from the company about necessary repairs. That WAS NOT an issue with the company or its owner! It was an issue with electronic communications failure on my equipment. That issue is resolved (I hope!) I would highly recommend this company to anyone needing any type of repair for their home."

Small jobs welcome

"Mike and his crew showed up on the dot and went right to work. They remembered the items we wanted done and did some other things on their own, just because they needed to be done. They were all pleasant, polite and professional. The only thing a little disappointing was the decking boards they used to replace the damaged ones don't match the older boards because they are thicker so are higher than the older boards. Also, the older boards have been pressure washed so the replacements boards are obviously smoother. However, we are genuinely pleased with the work and the speed it was completed and how neatly they left the work site. We would recommend Mike without hesitation."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

No, you don't need to stain Ipe decking, although you can if you want to change the color. You will, however, need to apply a UV coating if you don't want the natural color to fade. Speak to a deck staining specialist near you to discuss the best options if you want to stain your decking. And remember that you’ll need to seal your Ipe wood deck annually to protect it from scratches and Mother Nature.

You can add a roof to most decks, but you need to have it inspected first. If your deck didn’t come with a roof initially, it may not be able to handle the weight without some structural changes. You can add additional supports to your existing deck to safely add a roof, and tying your deck’s roof to an exterior wall can help add some structural stability, but remember these aren’t DIY projects and need to be left to a pro. 

No. In most cases, it’s not colder or freezing temperatures that affect decking materials but the amount of moisture that seeps into the materials as a result. For example, wood decking material is more likely to suffer from rot or decay when exposed to excess moisture from snow or ice. An extreme change in temperature can cause wood to expand or contract, but only if it’s not properly treated beforehand.

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.

PVC decking can get slippery when wet because it’s made from plastic. However, composite and wood decking can also be slippery when wet. It’s best to wear shoes with grippy soles when walking on a wet deck, no matter the material, and to be extra cautious not to slip and fall down.
