"The job went great. Mr. Ingrham personally did the estimate. They completed the job in about a week. The quality of the job exceeded expectations. He genuinely cares about providing a great service. As a prior foreclosure, some of the walls were in bad shape. The house looks brand new. I contacted many people trying to contract my job. It is my opinion that Mr. Ingrham is the best in the area. You will not be disappointed."

"They did a great job from the salesman to the roofers. Everything the salesman told me (and he went thru everything that would be done, step by step) was done from the materials being dropped off the day before to the clean up after the roof was done. I hope I don.t ever need it but the 50 year / unlimited wind guarantee isnice and it's even transferable if i ever want to move"

"I contacted several services, and decided to go with Marcel and Michael after meeting them. They do not just give vague estimates; they take measurements and really assess the needs of your project. I had an ancient, very dirty deck and stairs, and they made it fabulous! They are attentive, thorough, work their assess off, and take pride in their work. Without a doubt I would recommend them. I have already requested their help in future maintenance. I would like to add that when Marcel was reviewing the photos after finishing the job, he noticed some very small areas that the stain had missed. He came out the next morning for a touch up. Amazing service. Laura M., Oak Island, NC"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Choosing whether your deck should be lighter or darker than your house is a matter of personal preference, as there is no right or wrong answer. However, considering the pros and cons of each can help guide your decision. Darker colors are often chosen because they show less dirt, footprints, and marks from daily wear, making them easier to keep clean. On the other hand, lighter deck colors tend to stay cooler in the summer. From a design perspective, using a deck color that contrasts with your home's exterior can help make the deck a more defined and distinct feature. Consulting color theory can also make the process of choosing a complementary house and deck color combination easier.

It is possible to pressure wash your deck, but it’s usually best to leave the work to a professional for two main reasons. First, power washers are expensive, and you can avoid high upfront costs by hiring a deck washing pro instead. Second, you must be careful to use the correct setting to avoid damaging your deck material. You can only clean soft woods like pine with a wide spray and a low pressure; otherwise, the water will leave unpleasant marks on your deck. Hard woods, composite material, and metal can stand up to increasingly higher water pressures.

The best way to clean your decking is to clear debris from the gaps between the boards, sweep the surface, rinse it, apply cleaner, rinse again, and let it dry fully. A homemade deck cleaner made of two gallons of warm water and 1/2 cup vinegar is a simple cleaning solution for both wood and composite decking. You can sprinkle baking soda on any spots with mold or mildew, then scrub the area and rinse clean. 

When building a deck, #2 grade lumber is a go-to for several reasons. It’s strong, budget-friendly, and works well for most framing and decking needs. But upgrading to #1 or Appearance Grade can give your deck that extra visual edge if you're after a cleaner, more polished look for high-visibility spots.

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