"A&D Renovations completed each piece of the job, 3 ceiling fans, removed amd rehung mantle piece securely, and fixed two downspouts. They ensured we were happy with each item and asked questions to make sure on the same page. I appreciated they arrived when Brian said would and completed timely within their quote."

"While on the Angi site asking about house washing, Adam Hunt called about the job. We discussed the work and price and he could do it the same day. He came by, we walked around the house to review the job, and he went to work. I only had to provide a water source. He got the job done and did it properly. One section of siding came off but it was replaced. Job done, paid the man, put porch chairs back after things dried. First time working with this business"

"I had The Settles company due to roofing jobs for me. The first one was residential complete roof replacement and also added skylights that was 15 years ago and it still looks great. The second job was on my A-frame cabin that sits on a hill we could not find anybody that wanted to tackle that project it was a complete tear off repair and replace a very. Difficult project. Between him and his son who works for him They completed the whole project and it was a very difficult project to do because the cabin sits on the steep hill and it s an A-frame roof. I highly recommend"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

No, your deck will not rot under artificial grass as long as it is installed properly. When installed correctly, the artificial grass features a drainage system that prevents rotting. Simply laying artificial grass on top of the decking without proper installation will not lead to an effective drainage system that prevents rotting.

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.

PVC decking tends to be cooler than composite because the material is less dense and absorbs less heat. However, it depends on the deck’s color. A dark-colored PVC deck may run hotter than a light-colored composite deck. If you’re concerned about your deck getting too hot, it’s best to stick to a light color such as beige or gray.

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.

Ideally, a gate should be able to swing both in and out. However, if it can only open in one direction, it is generally best for it to swing inward. This is often the safest option, especially for deck gates near steps, as you'll want the gate to swing away from the stairs. An inward swing also prevents the gate from opening into a public space, like a sidewalk, and can be more convenient when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.

There are exceptions, however. The layout of your property may require a different approach. For example, if your property is on a slope, the gate may not be able to swing inward. You should also ensure the gate can open fully without colliding with any objects or blocking access to other areas. For a backyard garden gate where public access isn't a concern, the direction it swings is largely a matter of personal preference. Finally, always check your local building codes, as they may have specific requirements for which way a gate must swing.
