"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

It’s important to make sure the wood on a new deck is properly seasoned. Seasoning a deck is simple: Once you build it (or have a pro do so), just leave it alone so it can acclimate to the environment. If you don’t give the deck proper seasoning time before staining, the stain can lock in any lingering moisture and cause mold, rot, and other moisture issues down the road. Give the wood at least four to eight weeks to season before you stain.

Most building codes list a minimum width of 36 inches and a maximum height of 7¾ inches. However, for the most comfort and spaciousness, you’ll want to aim for a width of at least 48 inches and a height of 7 inches. Again, it’s always a good idea to base your numbers off steps that you already use comfortably.

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.

Most building codes require that spindles or balusters on deck and stair railings be spaced no more than four inches apart. This safety standard, often called the '4-inch sphere rule,' is designed to prevent small children or pets from slipping through the railing. A good way to visualize this is that a 4-inch sphere should not be able to pass between two spindles. For the same safety reason, the space between the bottom rail and the deck floor should also be no more than four inches. As a general guideline, professionals often install three balusters per foot of railing. However, since specific requirements can vary by location, it is crucial to check your local building codes to ensure compliance before starting your project.

Pressure-treated decks last 15 to 20 years on average, but with proper maintenance, you could get 40 to 50 years of value from yours. Reseal your deck every one to two years, and replace old or rotted wood as soon as possible to avoid structural damage. Where you live plays a role in the lifespan of your deck. Intense sunlight, rainfall, wind, and hail can reduce the deck’s lifespan.
