He is always willing to go the extra bit and pointed out some things we were not aware of.Very Honest, Knowledgeable, Organized, Neat and Helpful. Highly Recommend. Would do 10 stars if I could."

"I discovered Rick's Handyman by posting on Nextdoor Neighborhood website looking some someone to clean gutters. He responded and cam out the same day to give us an estimate. We ended up using him to not only clean our very clogged home gutters but also to power-wash/clean our patio which had very dirty dark pavers with algae/moss growing on and in between the stones. He did both jobs extremely well. Everything now looks great out back and our gutters worked properly in recent heavy rain. Rick is a nice guy to do business with, did great work for us, was reliable, and charged us a fair price for his services. We are likely to reach out to him for miscellaneous other handyman jobs we need done! Thanks."

"They did great work. I asked Mike to submit an estimate to my email so I could send it to my home owners insurance, which he did the same day. I also appreciated that they took care to keep the area being worked on contained from the rest of the room. No clean up or dust created by them. I will definitely use them again."

"Devoted young man starting out his business. Gave him a shot to level my subfloor and install vinyl planks throughout my entire first floor and he crushed it. He’s on time with realistic timelines. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Jay to anyone wanting flooring installed in their home."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

It is possible to pressure wash your deck, but it’s usually best to leave the work to a professional for two main reasons. First, power washers are expensive, and you can avoid high upfront costs by hiring a deck washing pro instead. Second, you must be careful to use the correct setting to avoid damaging your deck material. You can only clean soft woods like pine with a wide spray and a low pressure; otherwise, the water will leave unpleasant marks on your deck. Hard woods, composite material, and metal can stand up to increasingly higher water pressures.

Most building codes require that spindles or balusters on deck and stair railings be spaced no more than four inches apart. This safety standard, often called the '4-inch sphere rule,' is designed to prevent small children or pets from slipping through the railing. A good way to visualize this is that a 4-inch sphere should not be able to pass between two spindles. For the same safety reason, the space between the bottom rail and the deck floor should also be no more than four inches. As a general guideline, professionals often install three balusters per foot of railing. However, since specific requirements can vary by location, it is crucial to check your local building codes to ensure compliance before starting your project.

Unless you’re using a 2-in-1 formula or painting over an existing coat of paint, it pays to apply a coat of primer ahead of your new paint. Decks see a lot of footfall and exposure to extreme and sudden temperature changes and moisture levels. The primer promotes better paint adhesion, moisture repellency, and a smoother finish, which means you’ll often need fewer coats of paint. 

As with patios, there are many types of deck choices to choose from to add personalization to your home. Some common deck options include:

  • Attached decks are anchored to the home and include simple ground-level options or multi-level structures with stairways and separate landings. 

  • Detached island decks are not attached to the home; they’re a freestanding structure in the yard. 

  • Wraparound decks connect the back of the house with at least one other side and often are built with railings for safety. 

  • Multi-level decks connect your deck through varying levels of elevation, featuring landings that are attached to stairs.

While experienced DIYers may take on the challenge, hiring a licensed professional is often the best route, especially for larger or elevated structures. A local deck contractor is typically the best pro for the job, as they have specialized experience and are knowledgeable about local building codes, ensuring your deck is built safely and designed to last. Other professionals who can build a deck include general contractors and carpenters, who may be more readily available in some regions.
