"We requested some landscape work to be redone. Said in our original request back on April 23rd that we would like it done in the next 2 weeks. This person was to start on may 5th. We received a message saying he was not going to be able to start until May 12th. His attendance was spotty at best and very inconsistent. Working only between 4-6 hours when he did show up. Would work 2 hours be gone for 4 then back for an 1.5 hrs. Very inconsistent. This has gone on for the past 3 weeks. He contracted with us for 64 hours, at the rate we are going it will be the end of June before he finishes. We have tried talking with him a couple of different times regarding these issues, with no result. He left our garage door open when we left him working one Friday morning, told him we were heading out of town for a graduation, to just close the door when he was done working. My daughter drove by at noon and found our door open, he was nowhere to be found so she closed it. There was never any communication unless we were the ones to initiate it. Asked him several times for an agenda, as to when and for how long we could expect him on any given day. He rarely followed through on what he told us. It felt as if our job was not the priority. That he would fit us in here and there for an hour or two. The quality of his work was good, however, his communication, consistency, the lack of ability to get the job done in a timely fashion (the two week period that was requested in the initial request) his attitude, demeanor and disrespectful way he yelled at my husband and myself was atrocious!!!! Telling us we should of had it done in March, it was never done correctly in the first place, he even was cursing at us, because we told him he could work till he fulfilled his 64 hours. That we would be done at that point, even if the job was not completed. He told us he was doing a hell of a job for us and we didn't respect him. We had high hopes for this person and we were happy to give him the work. He just never really behaved as if he actually wanted the work. You get to a point where you just have to stop the bleeding and we were there with him."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

There are deck restoration products and oil-based wood stains that can help bring back some of the color and shine to your faded Trex decking. However, if your boards are suffering from serious fading due to UV rays or chemical cleaning products, don’t expect miracles. Also, these products are only suitable for use on the older Trex boards, not the capped, second-generation Trex products. 

It is definitely worth sanding a deck to ensure the wood absorbs new stain. Sanding a deck removes the outer layers of aging wood, allowing the stain to penetrate. It also gives a fresh look to the entire surface as part of the deck refinishing process. Without sanding, your stain or sealant is less likely to absorb into the wood. While sanding a deck is a time-intensive project, the rewards are noticeable and long-lasting.

Deck repairs cost around $800 to $3,500. However, your cost depends on the type and severity of the repair, as well as the type of decking material you have. Other factors, like location and labor costs, impact the price, too. Boards and railings are the priciest parts of a deck to repair, while loose stairs are less expensive to fix.

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.

If you notice standing water under the deck after rainstorms, you may need a drainage system to efficiently move this water. You do not want standing water to rest against your foundation or against support posts for the deck, as this could cause significant structural problems over time. Make sure the area has proper grading, too.
