"This is the second time we hired Petar to stain our large deck and touch up/paint the white hand rails. He is fantastic! He is very prompt with his communications kept us informed if he could not make it do to rain. (outside project) he is very meticulous, and careful with all of the surroundings. Both him and his helper were very polite and friendly, a real pleasure to have around my family. The work as I expected came out perfect. I loved his work so much the first time we had the deck stained I did not even shop around this time, I went right to Petar. The price I paid for this service was in range with other quotes I had received when I priced this the first time. I am so glad I went with him since the quality of work and the time it took to complete the project was outstanding. We have some projects we are considering inside our house and I will not be looking for a painter, since I already have one now, in PV Painting & Decorating. If you are considering a painting job this is the man for the project."

"I had an excellent experience with SZ Home Construction?. They completed the chimney maintenance, cleaning, and painting professionally and at a very reasonable price. The work was finished on time, and the quality exceeded my expectations. What impressed me the most was their attention to detail and respect for cleanliness ? they cleaned the entire area thoroughly after finishing the job, leaving everything neat and organized. Their team was polite, calm, and very easy to deal with. They worked smoothly and quietly without creating unnecessary noise or disturbance, which made the whole experience comfortable and stress-free. I also appreciated their professional and legal payment process through bank checks, which added an extra level of trust and reliability. I highly recommend SZ Home Construction? to anyone looking for honest, professional, and high-quality home service work."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Yes, it is generally safe to have a fire pit on a deck, but you must adhere to building codes and take several safety precautions. For both built-in and freestanding models, you must use a heat-resistant barrier, such as a fire pit pad or heat shield, between the pit and the deck. Additionally, consider the weight of the fire pit and ensure your deck can structurally support it, reinforcing it if necessary. The fire pit must also be positioned a safe distance from your house, particularly from materials like vinyl siding, to prevent heat damage.

Coping is the material that lines the perimeter of a pool and seals the transition between the top of the pool wall and the water. Decking surrounds the poolscape and extends far beyond the water's edge to provide a safe walking and lounging area. In short, coping is the border between the decking and the pool itself.

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.

No, termites do not eat Trex or any other composite decking brand. Termites eat cellulose, of which composite decking like Trex contains very little compared to natural wood. This feature can help justify the higher Trex decking costs if you live in an area with abundant termites.

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.
