"I had a great experience with Hodgson Homes from start to finish. The installation was done cleanly and efficiently, and the crew was respectful of the space throughout the process. Scott was very professional and communicative. He kept me informed every step of the way and made sure everything was done to my expectations, including adding an additional gate on the side that was not in the original quote and changing hardware as needed. He also helped communicate with some neighbors questioning property lines in a way that helped rather than hindered the process. The final result looks fantastic, and I'm really happy with the quality of the work. My dog is also quite happy with his new play area 😋 Highly recommend!"

"Ken did an amazing job rescreening our porch. He replaced all our old wood lattice with white vinyl lattice and rescreened our door. He worked meticulously over four days and made sure the job was done thoroughly. He also replaced our stair bannister and all the wood which was in bad shape. Ken made suggestions which were very helpful. And he was reasonably priced. We are very satisfied with his work and will be using him for other household projects. We highly recommend him!"

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

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.

The best direction for a gate to swing depends on its location and purpose, but swinging inward is the general rule. An inward swing is often considered safer, prevents the gate from opening into public spaces like a sidewalk, and may be required by local building codes.

There are exceptions and specific considerations. If your property is on a slope, an inward swing might not be possible. For a deck gate, it's safest to have it swing away from any steps. In a backyard, the direction can be a matter of preference, though an inward swing can be helpful when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.

Regardless of direction, ensure the gate can open fully without hitting any objects or blocking spaces. While an inward swing is standard, a gate that can swing both in and out offers the most flexibility if your setup allows for it.

In most cases, there should be a small gap between the house and the deck, usually no more than ½ to ¾ of an inch. This space allows water and moisture to flow through instead of pooling against the side of your house. It also lets flashing protect your siding from runoff, which is one of the most common issues with decks.

The best and fastest way to remove paint from a deck often involves combining a chemical stripper with a pressure washer. Gel-based paint strippers are highly recommended because their thick consistency makes them less messy and easier to apply than liquid strippers. After applying the stripper to loosen the paint, you can use a pressure washer to efficiently wash away the residue. When using a pressure washer for this task, it's important to use a low pressure (under 1000 PSI) to avoid forcing too much moisture into the wood, which could lead to mildew or rot.

Decks require several inspections during and after the building process, but the specifics vary depending on where you live. Most areas mandate that decks comply with local building codes and safety regulations for the foundation, framing, and structure. Some pros recommend a footing inspection, which verifies the depth, width, and location of the various footings to ensure they offer enough foundational support.
