"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"

They have always gotten back to us within a timely manner and continue to be professional while on and off the job. They provide quality work within a timely manner and for an affordable cost! We highly recommend them!"

"I hired Donald to build a sundeck around my pool, that was in dire need of repair. Not only was he prompt and curtious, but he was very helpful and gave me suggestions that I hadn't thought of! Kudos to this company, and his attentive and helpful crew! Thank you Anointed Power!!!"

"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"

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

PVC decking might be long-lasting, but this synthetic material lacks​​ the natural aesthetic or sustainability of wood decking. If you want to match your decking to your new garden furniture or just freshen up the faded surface, it’s not usually possible to paint PVC decking. When comparing PVC to composite decking, PVC is pricier and more prone to warping in hot regions.

The best way to sand a deck is by cleaning it, sanding the boards and stairs with 60- or 80-grit sandpaper, and sanding the railings and posts with 80-grit sandpaper. You should sand in the direction of the wood grain to avoid damaging the timber. When sanding your deck, use medium pressure and aim for an even sand. Pressing too hard with a sander can damage decks, as most are softwoods.

The choice between Trex, a brand of composite decking, and PVC decking depends on your priorities regarding budget, appearance, and environmental impact. Both materials are durable and resistant to moisture and insects. Trex is often considered more eco-friendly because it contains recycled wood and plastic and is 25% recyclable, while PVC is fully synthetic and harder to recycle. Aesthetically, Trex is designed to look more like real wood, whereas PVC often has a glossier, more plastic-like finish. In terms of cost, Trex is typically less expensive than PVC.

Deck skirting shouldn’t touch the ground, especially if you have a wood deck, which is vulnerable to moisture. Ideally, you should leave at least 3/4 of an inch of space between the deck skirting and the ground for more ventilation. Pros also recommend that you incorporate about 1 square foot of space for ventilation for the underside of the deck to every 150 square feet of decking. Proper ventilation prevents mold growth and rot that can damage your deck.

The best and fastest way to remove paint from a deck often involves combining a chemical stripper with a pressure washer. Gel-based paint strippers are highly recommended because their thick consistency makes them less messy and easier to apply than liquid strippers. After applying the stripper to loosen the paint, you can use a pressure washer to efficiently wash away the residue. When using a pressure washer for this task, it's important to use a low pressure (under 1000 PSI) to avoid forcing too much moisture into the wood, which could lead to mildew or rot.
