"We recently hired Paint Life to paint our entry way, kitchen and family room, which has about 18-foot-high ceilings. Right off the bat, I was impressed with Paint Life. From their response time on a request from an estimate and the extremely detailed proposal to the follow-up calls after the work was completed to see if everything went as expected. Rich is extremely professional in everything he does, and you can tell he cares about his clients with the personal touch he adds in conversations and suggestions. From start to finish, the project went smoothly. The project manager, Johnny, was professional, courteous, very friendly but above all, extremely talented. Some of our walls were in extremely rough shape with nail pops and the previous owner doing sheetrock repair on their own so they needed a lot of work. After the job, there are very few spots that we even notice anymore as the walls now look phenomenal, even with the Satin finish which tends to show more imperfections. The attention to detail and willingness to take feedback on spots we’d liked touched up was refreshing. It truly felt like we were a part of the project from start to finish. Johnny took the time to explain what was going to be done at the end of each day and discussed what would be getting done the next day. They maintained a rather clean and tidy work area as well. Even after the job was done, Rich called to ensure everything was in order and scheduled a time to come out and fix a few minor touch-up spots we noticed after the work was done. Rich is also always trying to improve the business and accepts constructive criticism from “very particular” clients like myself. I would not hesitate one second in hiring Paint Life for my next interior paint project or to recommend them to my friends and family. Can’t thank Rich and the team enough."

Deck Cleaning questions, answered by experts

The proper and most comfortable height for a deck stair riser, also called a step, is between four and seven inches. A height of seven inches is often considered ideal for a strain-free step that minimizes the risk of trips and falls. While it is possible to have risers up to 12 inches, this height can be challenging for children, pets, or individuals with mobility issues. For optimal safety and comfort, pair a seven-inch riser with a tread depth (or run) of at least 10 to 12 inches. Always check your local building codes, as they may have specific requirements that differ from these general recommendations.

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.

An above-ground pool with a deck can increase your home's value by as much as 4% to 7%, but it depends on your local climate, potential buyers, and the size and condition of your pool. Some buyers see a pool as a liability instead of a luxury, especially if it's at the end of its life span. In general, it's best to add a pool and deck to your property if it will bring you enjoyment—not because it raises the value of your home.

The overhang, or nosing, of deck steps is another area that will be covered in building code requirements. The noses on your deck steps should have a minimum overhang of ¾ inch. For safety, usability, and code compliance, the nosing of deck steps should not extend past 1¼ inches.

In most cases, your deck will need some form of deck footing to hold it in place, preventing moisture from rotting your wood and decreasing your deck’s lifespan. Concrete deck blocks are the most common type of footing for floating decks. Some homeowners use ground-level deck footings. For added security, consider digging and laying your ground-level footings below ground.
