Q: How do you maintain a portico?

• <div><p>To maintain a portico, you need to ensure that your portico roof has proper drainage. Poor drainage can lead to water seeping into the wooden structure and eventually causing rot. You&rsquo;ll also want to regularly clean your portico columns, removing dirt or scuff marks using a clean, wet cloth.</p></div>

Q: Can my deck support a roof?

• <div><p>You can add a roof to most decks, but you need to have it inspected first. If your deck didn&rsquo;t come with a roof initially, it may not be able to handle the weight without some structural changes. You can add additional supports to your existing deck to safely add a roof, and tying your deck&rsquo;s roof to an exterior wall can help add some structural stability, but remember these aren&rsquo;t DIY projects and need to be left to a pro. </p></div>

Q: How do professionals address drainage issues on decks or porches?

• <div><p>By correcting grading issues and ensuring water is directed away, preventing future damage.</p></div>

Q: What is involved in routine maintenance by professionals?

• <div><p>Regular cleaning, sealing, and inspections help identify problems early and maintain aesthetics.</p></div>

Remodeled our bathroom. Very pleased, quality craftsmanship, reasonably priced, and shows up on time! Also used Jack to repair some water damage we had in our garage, and install some porch railings. Again he did an excellent job and got it done quickly!
