"Rich, owner of RAP, and his dedicated crew did an awesome job in power washing our house, storage shed, deck, and brick walkways … everything is clean, bright, and frankly looking like new again! Rich is knowledgeable, responsive, punctual, professional, and an absolute pleasure to work with. He and his crew were meticulous in their work taking their time to do a job that well exceeded expectations and were conscientious in their clean-up efforts afterwards. It is indeed rare these days to see extraordinary focus on customer delight and pride in their work. I highly recommend Rich and look forward to working with him again in the future!"

"Experienced Landscape Design did a fantastic job for us trimming 3 large overgrown hedges, yew, forsythia, and privet, and clearing weeds from planting beds. We anticipated a good outcome from the moment we met owner Paul, because of his evident love for this work, enthusiasm, and energy. He assessed our property, answered questions, and pointed out areas we might want to include in the service either now or later. We received a very fair estimate next day, and the job was completed the day after that. The crew worked for 7 hours with care and thoroughness, shaping the hedges artfully, exceeding my expectations. I was so delighted with the result I think I applauded. This company is a keeper, and we look forward to working with them in the future."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Choices include wood, composite, and hardwoods, each with unique benefits.

Choosing whether your deck should be lighter or darker than your house is a matter of personal preference, as there is no right or wrong answer. However, considering the pros and cons of each can help guide your decision. Darker colors are often chosen because they show less dirt, footprints, and marks from daily wear, making them easier to keep clean. On the other hand, lighter deck colors tend to stay cooler in the summer. From a design perspective, using a deck color that contrasts with your home's exterior can help make the deck a more defined and distinct feature. Consulting color theory can also make the process of choosing a complementary house and deck color combination easier.

Liquid rubber is great for waterproofing, but it can damage your deck if it’s not applied correctly. First, it can trap moisture in the wood if the deck isn’t completely dry before application.  Second, applying it too thickly can create a heavy, rubbery surface layer that peels and cracks under fluctuating temperatures. For the best results, ensure the wood is completely dry before application, and apply the liquid rubber in thin, even coats. A quick inspection every now and then will help you catch any issues early, keeping your deck protected and looking its best.

Routine cleaning, sealing/staining, and inspection prolong deck life and appearance.

Building a deck without a permit could lead to fines for both the homeowner and the contractor. The exact penalties will depend on your state and municipal building laws. You might also be required to remove the deck and apply for a permit before you can build another. While it might be tempting to skip the permit to save a few bucks, it’ll cost you much more if you’re caught.
