"Excellent. Sergiy and his team came when they said they would, worked hard while they were here, were punctual, trustworthy, and paid attention to detail. He showed us pictures of the closet that he was working on for us while we were out of the home to see if it was as we imagined it. We are expecting our first child, and the closet is in the nursery. Sergiy and his team were able to come earlier than planned to finish this project for us as he knew we were trying to prepare the room before the baby's arrival. The baby's closet looks fantastic. They worked effectively and completed the jobs quicker than we expected. Our deck ended up needing more work than we discussed at the estimate, that is always a fear when you start a project, but Sergiy went above and beyond to make sure that the deck looked its best and did not charge us extra money for their time and efforts. We paid the estimated price plus the price of supplies. He did an extra layer of paint on the deck, replaced more planks than expected, and even created space between each plank by sawing a gap (he said there should be a space between planks to prevent the paint from peeling). Our deck looks great and we are impressed with the new gate that was made for it. My Town Remodeling really takes pride in doing their job well. We are pleased with the work that they have done for us, and would definitely use them again."

"The pro came to repair a leak in my parents roof, in the living room. We called and got the pro. He came and said he could repair the roof leak. He guaranteed the work. It still leaks and the part of the ceiling fell in about a week ago, after there was a lot of rain. My father is August Collacchi."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can build a pool deck yourself, but it takes precision, a lot of time, and many specific tools. You’ll need to create a deck plan, be careful with measurements, cut each piece of wood, secure the pieces properly, and ensure the deck meets building codes. Building a deck around a pool is a rewarding DIY, but it’s time- and labor-intensive, so thoughtfully consider your abilities and the time you have before embarking on this DIY.

There are more pros than cons when staining a deck. Deck stain is more affordable than paint, it protects the wood and allows the natural textures to shine through, and it can revive the appearance of your home. However, deck stain also requires prep work (sometimes days or more), carries more upkeep than a painted deck, and can fade over time if not cared for. 

Wood decks need to be replaced every 10 to 15 years on average. Natural wood is highly vulnerable to infiltration and damage from moisture, which can occur rapidly due to exposure to outdoor elements. You can protect your deck and maximize its lifespan by sealing it every year or two.

Composite decking might cost more upfront, but it delivers value in terms of durability. Unlike wood, composite material resists common deck problems such as rotting, fading, warping, and all the other things you don’t want a deck to do. The extra processes lead to a higher price tag, but you’ll save big in maintenance costs down the road.

What goes under your floating deck depends on your preferences. Some homeowners put landscaping fabric underneath their decks to prevent weeds from popping up through the boards. Others choose to build a floating deck over grass or gravel. However, it’s best not to set your deck directly on the ground. Instead, set your deck on blocks to keep it elevated enough to prevent moisture from rotting the wood.
