"I had peak framing put a new porch on the front of my house. They did a very good job. After a couple of days I did see a couple of things that needed to be fixed. That’s when I found out they have the best customer service. I told them what I didn’t like and they came back and took care of things. I would definitely recommend them. I plan on having them do more work for me"
"We hired Anointed Power after a sewer flood caused major damage inside of our home; Donald Moore and his crew came in fast, professional and handled all the repairs. During the times Donald had to step away his crew interacted with our family with complete professionalism. Donald helped us with several issues concerning our Insurance Coverage and even took the time to meet with US Bank when they came to inspect the work he completed. Our home looks wonderful! New paint; new cabinets and fresh new carpet; all completed two weeks prior to our agreed upon deadline. Donald Moore fought my Insurance company's scope of work and showed them why I needed my whole carpet replaced; I would not have been able to convince State Farm with out his professional view and input. He did such a good job on the inside we had him build us a new deck in front;; he even re varnished my back deck to match the new one he installed! I would recommend this company to anyone; hell even my Insurance Adjuster took his card after seeing the quality work he and his crew completed. Thank You Anointed Power; your name speaks for its self and your actions back that name up!"
"Needed to have storm door on enclosed porch swing to inside of porch instead of out as is usual. This was to give us more room on the top deck of the handicapped ramp to open door without the wheelchair or walker rolling back down ramp. Dats called us the same morning that we listed, to set up a time to look over the job. Gave us a very fair quote. Scheduled the door replacement for the next day. They picked up the new door.then came to the house and spent about 2 hours to install the new storm door after removing old storm door. FYI could not find any storm doors that were made to to swing inward any place on the internet. Dats modified the door from outward swing to inward swing for us. They did great work and really made the house look better. Have more jobs needing done in spring when weather is better. Plan on having Dats do the work. T.L. Gillham"

Whether you need a permit depends on the deck design and local regulations. Most areas mandate a building permit if the deck is over a specific height or if it's attached to a pre-existing structure. Shorter, freestanding decks may not require a permit, but you should check with local zoning ordinances and your homeowners association for specifics.
Building codes for deck railings can vary by location, so it's important to consult your local regulations before construction. Generally, a guardrail is required for any deck that is more than 30 inches above the ground.
For residential properties, the standard minimum height for a deck railing is 36 inches. However, some states and municipalities have stricter requirements; for example, California and Washington mandate railings that are at least 42 inches high. Therefore, a 42-inch railing is not considered too high and may be required in your area or chosen voluntarily for additional safety.
In addition to height requirements, codes also specify other safety features, such as the maximum spacing between balusters to ensure they are close enough to prevent a child from squeezing through.
Always sand a deck before repainting so the wood is smooth and ready for paint. While you do not need to fully remove paint before repainting, sanding helps remove any areas with weather and sun damage. Sanding also helps remove chipped or flaking paint and opens the wood pores to improve paint adhesion.
Pressure-treated lumber is one of the most affordable types of decking upfront. This material is widely available, so you can usually find pressure-treated lumber at almost any local home improvement store you visit. Keep in mind that wood requires a lot of upkeep with repainting and restaining, so any kind of wood may be more expensive in the long run than something like PVC decking.
Deck boards should be spaced no more than three-eighths of an inch apart. This is enough space to allow water and small debris to pass through without collecting on the surface, but not enough to create a tripping hazard. Certain materials, like pressure-treated wood, shrink over time, so they may need less space at installation.
