"X-Power Washing, who power washed my house, deck, fence, outdoor furniture and deck significantly exceeded all my expectations on every level. I received a very high level of performance for the price I paid which was more than fair for the exceptionally high quality of service that I received. I am now a steady customer of X-Press Power Washing and will hire them back on regularly scheduled dates to maintain the beautiful , clean, highly professionally maintained look of my home. I will receive a high rate of return at point of sale of my house on my investment in the very fair cost of its maintenance. X-Press Power Washing thoroughly, carefully, and gently washed every surface they touched making my house siding, windows, deck, and fence look brand new. They washed everything in sight returning everything to exactly where they found them! They took care of some details that I didnâ t even think of, and I am extremely detail minded. Above all, I felt extremely comfortable with X-Press Power â s people , Melvin and Mario , as they went about my home working and found them extremely reliable with excellent customer interaction skills. X Press gave me a detailed and very fair quote for considering the exceptionally high quality work that they delivered. I have my high quality, long-term professional each of whom i engage for my general contracting needs, landscaping, automatic water sprinkler maintenance, arborist care- and now I have a go-to power washing company, X-Press Power Washing, for all my future power washing needs Thank you !Melvin and Mario, May God bless you and your work."

"This was the first time we had our deck power washed and stained by Rob. It hasn't looked this good since it was built. He also replaced some broken lattice work and everything he did was in a very skillful manner. We've already asked Rob to do other jobs for us around the house. We highly recommend him."

"Moises and his crew repaired water rotted wood in difficult locations and completely finished the garage to every detail from insulation to molding, as shown in pictures here. They thought of every detail that shows their pride over their work. Not only is their work top notch, but they are also easy to work with and very communicative through the whole process. I have already hired them for a second job."

"We requested quotes to "REPAIR OR REPLACE" our existing deck. We were very pleased that when Ryan and Tommy arrived and did a complete inspection over and under our deck they said repair, replace some boards and repaint. They provided a fair quote and time frame and completed the work on schedule. The entire experience has been a good one. The two man staff they provided, Rodney and Tony and Job Manage Tommy, were pleasant and professional. They worked continuously even during recent heat wave. We are very satisfied with R & Ds work quality and professionalism. Neighbors commented on work done and the young men doing the work. JOB WELL DONE!!!"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

If you have wood decking, there are several common deck problems that you might encounter. For example, your natural wood boards may fade over time due to things like sunlight, weather, and debris. On top of that, some types of wood decking can rot, grow mold, and attract destructive pests—including termites, carpenter ants, and woodpeckers.

No, you don’t need a permit to repair and replace a few boards on an existing deck. However, if you’re making structural changes to the deck or tearing down the old one and building a new one, you will likely need a permit. Check with your local municipality for the regulations and rules in your area, or ask a local contractor who builds decks for advice.

Yes, pressure washing a wood deck can be a good idea as it effectively lifts ingrained dirt, mold, and mildew, improving the deck's appearance and longevity. However, it must be done carefully, as it's easy to damage the wood, especially softwoods. To pressure wash safely, use a lower pressure setting and a wide, 40-degree fan pattern nozzle (often white). Keep the nozzle at least a foot away from the wood surface and maintain constant motion, avoiding hovering in one spot to prevent gouging.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.

Yes, adding railing to a deck is a great way to improve safety and your home’s aesthetic appeal. Railings can be constructed from wood, metal, or composite, and there are plenty of choices regarding design and style. Always consult local building codes before starting any building project—there are often requirements regarding spacing and height that can differ slightly from place to place.
