My name is Austin Street. I am a part-time residential contractor focusing on small jobs related to home remodeling and repairs. Since I am not a full time contractor and just starting out, it is important for me to work with individuals who are in need of small projects so I can complete their requests in a timely manner, to the best of my ability.

"Excellent to work with and does quality work and will hire them again."

"Wise Home Direct did a major interior makeover on my house last fall and not only did they do a fantastic job but I really enjoyed working with them and appreciate their professionalism. Today I had an urgent need for some follow-up repair work and I'm completely impressed with their willingness and ability to rally for me late in the day on a Friday afternoon to mobilize and handle my issues same day.

"We were having the exterior of our house painted and realized on a Friday that the siding in the front needed to be completely replaced due to significant sun damage. Pavel came out on Saturday to assess the situation (which was essential since the painters were on the job already) and got to work on Monday removing the old siding and completed the job by Tuesday. Both the quality and his pace of work are exceptional. Now the painters can get to work priming and painting the new siding! "

"Very professional, honest , and speaks English. Ran into some issues with the material company, but he was honest about it and kept me updated. The deck I had, had rotted out. The new deck was done quickly after the hiccup with the materials. He explained everything to us, to help us better understand how to choose our new layout. The finished product was pristine. Highly recommend this local business! "

Decks and Porches questions, answered by experts

Professionals charge between $60 and $95 per hour to install ornamental porch columns. The amount of time they need varies based on the condition of the porch, whether they need to remove old columns, and if there is any damage to your porch's structure. This cost can increase if more issues come up during the installation process.

While building your deck, you might come across something called the four-inch sphere rule. Essentially, this railing requirement for a deck states that a four-inch ball should not be able to fit through any gap in the deck railings. The gap between spindles and between the decking and the bottom of the railing must be less than four inches to prevent small children or pets from squeezing through the gap.

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.

We recommend hanging a porch swing at least 2.5 to 3 feet from the wall and about 17 inches above the ground to avoid damaging your home. You want enough clearance behind it and on each side of the porch swing to move around safely and avoid the chains rubbing against it.

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.
