"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. It's been about 9 months since they finished their project and I am completely impressed with this kind of after-project support and look forward to the next project I will do with them."

"Although this company was new to Home Advisor I was very pleased with the responsiveness of the owner Michael Sheppard and hired him immediately upon meeting him. The project was to expand our deck to wrap around the side of the house and around a hot tub. He built a platform for the hot tub and arranged for an electrician to wire it up so that it was ready for immediate use. As we do not live at the house fulltime, we were kept informed with pictures and messages and the end result exceeded all our expectations. In a time where it is so difficult to get anybody to respond to inquiries, let alone actually do any work, we could not be happier with our choice to use this company. We have several more projects for the house and his company seems to do it all. I cannot recommend him highly enough."

Decks and Porches questions, answered by experts

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.

You can either nail or screw deck boards according to your preference. We recommend using 3-inch galvanized deck screws in this guide because screws offer superior holding powder over time. If you’re using screws, you can minimize the risk of cracking the boards by drilling small pilot holes before securing the boards to the deck joists.

Will pressure-treated wood rot? This wood could eventually suffer from rot, although it takes longer compared to untreated wood. Even though the chemicals applied to pressure-treated wood protect it, they eventually dissipate and leave the wood vulnerable. You can delay the appearance of rot in the treated wood by reducing its direct exposure to moisture and by painting it. Using fewer screws or nails in the wood—and thereby creating fewer holes in it—also delays the chances of rot forming.

It is best to power wash your deck and sand it, as cleaning removes grime, mildew, and dirt, while sanding refreshes the wood and allows the stain to penetrate. You should clean your deck first, sand it, and then stain it. You should clean your deck annually, while sanding and staining only needs to be done every three years.

Costs depend on repair complexity, hardware needs, labor, and required software updates.
