"I couldn’t be happier with the work from Prescion Home Repair! They installed my railing and the entire experience was excellent from start to finish. They were incredibly kind, professional, and easy to work with, and they really took the time to stay within my budget without compromising on quality. The craftsmanship is outstanding—the railing looks amazing and feels extremely solid and well-built. You can tell they take pride in their work. I highly recommend Prescion Home Repair to anyone looking for reliable, high-quality home improvement work!"
"George and his team were very meticulous with their paver work. Instead of trying to make the pavers fit together, they took the time to custom cut the blocks for added curb appeal. His long time experience was evidenced by his ability to immediately find solutions to minor issues that presented. Definitely high level service all around. I would certainly use them again."
"Sandro and his team did excellent work, professional and great customer service. He wanted us to be more than satisfied with the work. I was very happy with the results. I thought my deck was beyond repair with the dirt and mold but with a thorough cleaning, light resurfacing and stain of my choice it is as good new."
"His Crew is just awesome, they not only fixed the mess left by another contractor, they gave me options to expand a room and make it look even better"

"This is the 2nd time I've used Freeborne and I would definitely have them back again. They built a 12' X 16' enclosed room on a 2nd story deck and it came out great. Lenny, Scott and crew knew what we wanted and exceeded our expectations without over complicating the project. There were no budget surprises either. The amount we discussed at the beginning was what we were charged. If I could I would use them to do projects inside of the house!"
"We are very happy with the services provided by AAA Custom Painting. Andres was very friendly, professional and detail oriented. We had our shutters and garage doors repainted along with some additional exterior trim in Oct. 2016 and have been very happy with the results. Our 30+ year old garage doors look new again! We would recommend AAA to any of our friends and neighbors."
"From start to finish, working with Juan and his team was excellent. We knew that we wanted to turn the enclosed porch into a mud room, but weren't sure exactly how to go about it. We got three proposals for the job, and were most comfortable with Juan's. He was direct, professional, and covered everything that needed to be done. Long story short, we couldn't be happier with the result. We were lucky that they were able to fit us into their schedule quickly. The workers were punctual, professional, and obviously took pride in their work. The job took about 5 days; it would have been 4, but they went above and beyond to make sure that the result was excellent. For example, on the second day Juan approached me and asked if they could paint the ceiling and replace the light fixture, at no additional cost; they just wanted the finished room to look the best possible. There was also a tree that we had been planning on getting rid of, near the base of where the stairs were supposed to end. Juan removed the tree and didn't charge us for it. Additionally, the workers spent a good deal of time making sure that the old interior door closed properly, taking it off its hinges, sanding it down, and rehanging it. We didn't ask for that; they just took pride in their work and had an eye for detail. We were extremely grateful for this. Unlike so many contractors, there was no nickel and diming. The job went smoothly, the result is beautiful, and it cost exactly what were were told at the outset. They didn't cut corners, did a great job cleaning up, and the work itself was fantastic. The room turned out so much better than we could have imagined. Bottom line, Statewide Home Improvement did amazing work and we will definitely be working with them again for our next project. We've been raving about them to our friends and neighbors. "
"Scheduling the appointment was very easy and they were responsive. They were able to come the next day. I was not able to be there, but my neighbor was home and said that things went well. When I came home and after everything had dried, I could see areas where there dirt streaks had been left and they didn't get under the deck but for the price it did make the house look better. I would hire again if I was there in person."
"Jason and his crew were amazing! They were punctual dependable and most of all affordable! I was so pleased with the service I even hired them to clean my gutters in my house. I would highly recommend this company."
You can nail or screw composite decking, but 3-inch decking screws are the better fastener choice. Unlike nails, decking screws won’t back out of the composite material over time. There’s also little danger of splitting composite material when driving screws, so you don’t need to pre-drill holes unless otherwise recommended by your decking manufacturer.
Applying too much sealer to a deck might seem like extra protection, but it can cause more harm than good. Wood is a porous material with a limited capacity to absorb liquids. When you go overboard with sealer, the excess can't soak in and instead forms a film on the surface. This leftover layer is prone to peeling, cracking, and trapping moisture, ultimately defeating the purpose of sealing in the first place.
Yes, you can draw your own deck plans in many cases. However, you must know your local building codes and be familiar with carpentry principles. Even then, it's always best to run your plans by a professional contractor with experience building decks, whether you choose to DIY some of the build or not.
Both a well-constructed deck and a patio can add value to your home. Patios are generally cheaper to build but don’t offer the same aesthetics as a quality deck. Therefore, decks can be more appealing to buyers than patios, increasing a home's resale value.
A deck is typically attached to a house and accessed via the back door. Decks are usually constructed from wood or composite materials. A terrace, on the other hand, is a raised platform that can be attached to or detached from the house and is typically made from a hard-paved material, such as paving stones. Terraces can be built on the ground or on the roof of a home.
