"Ryan did a great job. He power washed my decks and then stained them. He was always here on time and was very polite. I would hire him again because he does much more than power washing. Thank you Ryan"

"Stephen and his crew were right on time and kept the areas clean. He even did a quick fix during the estimate before I even chose them. I highly recommend this company. They should be your 1st choice."

"We are so happy with everything Brandon and his team have done for our property. We originally hired him for mowing, but because his prices were so reasonable, we decided to take him up on a full overhaul of our entire landscaping, which was a huge undertaking. We have several large flower beds that were overgrown with weeds, tons of dead tree branches and limbs that needed to come down, and many other overgrown areas. He went above and beyond on everything, and truly brought our patio, landscaping areas, and multiple walkways back to life. We feel so much better looking out our windows to our beautiful yard and we have Brandon and his hardworking team to thank for that. The first time we called him, he had someone here mowing with 25 minutes of hanging up the phone. He shows up when he says he will show up, works until everything is done, and never tried charging extra for anything, even when encountering larger problems than anticipated. Just an overall very honest and hardworking crew. We plan to retain Private and Professional Lawn Care for regular maintenance and will utilize them for all of our fall/spring clean up and other landscaping needs. Thank you so much, Brandon!"

"I found out about Complete Painting and Repair through a coupon promotion on Angie's List.  The price was good ($250 for 8 hours of the painter's work, plus the cost of supplies).  Scott returned my call promptly and was very pleasant and professional.  The coupon covered the cost of power washing the fence and deck, and then painting the fence.  He also offered to paint the deck for an additional $50 and I took him up on that as well, since my back was acting up.   
I'm very pleased with the work -- the fence and deck look like new.  The fence is that basic wooden lattice, which can be a real pain to paint (I painted the fence myself a few years ago and was dreading having to do it again).  
I'd definitely hire Complete Painting and Repair again.

"Dave and a co-worker came out the day I called.  It was a rainy afternoon and I had a huge hole in the roof of my camp.  They were willing to fix it that night but a family was renting the camp.  So Dave came out early the next day and had it completed by 10 a.m.  The roof problem caused a problem in the bathroom ceiling which he then came out and fixed a few days later.  He was completely professional, prompt and very, very helpful.

"Met me a week before, gave me an estimate 3 days later.  Was several hundred less than other estimates.  He was the only one that explained the process along with the estimate showing different materials.  He also explained the different materials and how long they would last along with treatment.  Showed up every morning it wasn't raining and told me hours and times he would be there.  Had a nice young man that helped who was also very courteous and pleasant.  Deck was completed a week before deadline and I absolutely love it.  Will hire for any other jobs I need without question."

"Boone's came out and did a great job. They were communicative about scheduling and timing, materials needed, etc.
The deal purchased did not include railings, which was made clear upon purchase and as soon as they arrived to power wash the deck. My deck was also over the size limit. This cost me $400 on top of the $199 for the deal I purchased.
They powerwashed the deck very very well, and then stained it equally as well. It looks great.

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

It depends on the type of wood. The average cost to build a deck out of pressure-treated lumber is $15 to $25 per square foot, but more affordable varieties such as bamboo and cedar cost less at around $3 to $10 per square foot. However, when comparing the cost of vinyl decking versus wood decking, it’s important to also consider ongoing maintenance costs. For example, most woods require regular sealing to keep them protected against weather and rot.

Deck stairs should have at least three stringers rather than two. The recommended minimum width for stairs is 36 inches, and the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors recommends at least three cut stringers to provide sufficient support on wood decking stairs of this width. Generally, stringers should be a maximum of 16 inches apart for wood decking and 12 inches apart for more flexible composite decking.

For the best results, stay off of your deck for at least 48 hours after sealing it. Giving the sealant at least two full days to cure ensures it can fully penetrate the wood, giving you the most protection from sun and weather damage later on. Walking on the deck too soon can prevent it from properly curing and cause your deck to weather prematurely.

When building a deck, #2 grade lumber is a go-to for several reasons. It’s strong, budget-friendly, and works well for most framing and decking needs. But upgrading to #1 or Appearance Grade can give your deck that extra visual edge if you're after a cleaner, more polished look for high-visibility spots.

The proper height for a stair riser or deck step is between four and seven inches, with seven inches often considered the most comfortable. Building your stairs to this height ensures a strain-free step position and minimizes the risk of trip and fall injuries. For optimal safety and comfort, especially on deck stairs, a rise of around seven inches should be paired with a tread depth (or run) of at least 10 to 12 inches. While it is possible to design stairs with risers up to 12 inches, this height can be challenging for children, pets, or individuals with mobility issues. Always check with your local building codes, as they may mandate specific dimensions that differ from these general recommendations.
