"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."

"Kenneth did a great job painting 3 rooms in our home. He was a pleasure to work with. I also found out that he does garage floor coatings with Poly aspartic coating. Since I liked his work ethic, I hired him a few weeks later for that job too. We absolutely loved the work! Our 32 year old home looks better than new. I would recommend him and his associate , Sergio, to all."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Composite decking requires a solid foundation, substructure, or subframe to ensure stability. This base is typically composed of posts, beams, joists, and footings. The frame's joists can be built from various materials like composite, plastic, timber, or metal, as long as the base can support the deck's weight without shifting. A professional deck builder might recommend installing the frame on a solid concrete base for added durability. The final design and materials for the substructure will depend on your budget, the type of deck, and environmental conditions.

The best way to clean your decking is to clear debris from the gaps between the boards, sweep the surface, rinse it, apply cleaner, rinse again, and let it dry fully. A homemade deck cleaner made of two gallons of warm water and 1/2 cup vinegar is a simple cleaning solution for both wood and composite decking. You can sprinkle baking soda on any spots with mold or mildew, then scrub the area and rinse clean. 

Yes, you can build a deck over your outdoor HVAC unit, but you need to leave at least 5 feet of vertical clearance above the unit. If you don’t want your deck to be that high off the ground, you could build a floating deck in another part of your yard—again, as long as you leave at least 4 feet of horizontal space between the deck and your AC unit.

The problems with composite decking include a high rate of expansion and contraction from temperature swings. This characteristic can cause boards to split, delaminate, or peel. In addition, significant movement can cause shrinking, warping, twisting, and bending. For this reason, you should minimize moisture and ensure proper airflow below your deck.

That depends on the condition of your deck. An older deck that looks drab, worn, or has multiple damaged boards might be worth replacing before selling. However, if your deck is in good condition, you can simply clean, repaint, or stain it.
