"Needed fencing installed to keep groundhogs from taking up residence under our deck. Brady came up with a creative and complete solution that made sure the varmints were out and would not return. Would use again."

"Absolutely OUTSTANDING.
Owner Jeff is the ultimate professional.  Completely knowledgeable, flexible, punctual, patient, while being very personable.
Over the decades here in New Bern, I have interviewed and hired dozens of various contractors.  Most, quite honestly, are not worth the powder to blow away.  Case in point, another outfit gave an estimate for this job.  Verbally, they quoted three times as much as Jeff.  Then they promised a follow-up written estimate.  That was the last we heard from those jokers.
Two thumbs up for AdvantaClean and Jeff.

"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"

"It worked out really well. It got off to a kind of a rocky start but they did a good job. They were very prompt in coming out and giving me a written estimate. They used quality materials, some really good Sherwin Williams duration paint. I contracted with them last November and they didn't do the work until June. Obviously, a large part of it was because of the winter weather. They couldn't do it during the winter. We also had a very rainy spring, so they could not get here to do the work until the last week of May. We had an issue with communication. The gentleman who was in charge of the whole project, whose name was Alan Farmer, was very professional and very courteous. He explained everything they were doing. But I did have a problem and he did not return my phone calls at the beginning. It turned out to be a voicemail issue that he had on his end. But I got pretty frustrated. Once we got on track, they had a couple of issues that delayed the work. He had some health problems. They also had another job or two that they had not finished yet. So they didn't come here and work straight through. There were some gaps in time that I found a little bit annoying but the work that they did was so good that I basically think it was worth it in the long run.

I am updating my review a year later. Over time, I have noticed places where the painters didn't do an adequate job of covering the old paint, either by not applying a second coat or where they completely missed spots. They spilled paint on my roof (visible from the street) and my back porch (natural wood finish). The two wooden columns are not of good quality wood: the finish is rough and shows knotholes, and the overall effect is that it was done by an amateur. Again, not enough paint to cover the bare wood.

The workmen failed to remove the decals on the inside of the large window over my porch, even though I pointed that out. I cannot reach that high up to remove them (10 feet), and it detracts from the appearance. 

During the work, one of the painters lost his footing and fell from the main roof onto the roof of my back porch. Not only was the man injured, but he refused my repeated requests to let me call 911. He appeared to have scraped his shin bone. Distressing for everyone, and I can only hope his injuries healed.

I don't know if this company is even in business any more, but if so, I would NOT recommend them."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

It’s important to make sure the wood on a new deck is properly seasoned. Seasoning a deck is simple: Once you build it (or have a pro do so), just leave it alone so it can acclimate to the environment. If you don’t give the deck proper seasoning time before staining, the stain can lock in any lingering moisture and cause mold, rot, and other moisture issues down the road. Give the wood at least four to eight weeks to season before you stain.

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.

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.

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. 

It is recommended to clean your deck once or twice a year to prevent the accumulation of dirt, debris, mold, and mildew. The ideal times for cleaning are in the spring and fall. A spring cleaning removes grime that has built up over the winter, preparing your deck for summer use. A fall cleaning washes away messes from summer activities, preventing them from setting into the wood over the winter. The exact frequency can depend on factors such as how often the deck is used, its exposure to pollen, and whether salt was used on it during the winter. Regular cleaning helps protect the wood and its finish from damage.
