"My wife and I are new to the Lima area and recently bought a house that we can slowly work on and build up. I was advised of the company by word of mouth and I am weird when it comes to who I hire and allow in my home. They came out and were very professional, respectful of my home and family, and I appreciated the most that not only did they repair what I had asked they went above and beyond to assist in anything else I needed. I was really glad I called them and received exactly what I was hoping for. I would gladly recommend their services to anyone and will continue to do so."

"The young men who did the work were very respectful and kind. Their work was done quickly and we were involved in the decision making from the start to finish, We now have a very nice looking front ramp and porch. We appreciate their work and their attitude towards us. It is encouraging to see young men with a good can-do attitude. We are very pleased with the work."

"Codee and his team moved me from Marion to Carey, OH on June 18, 2022. They were a little bit late getting there, but that was better for me because it gave me more time to get ready for them before they got there because I was also running behind. Anyway, Codee and his team really did a great job, and they joked around and made it kind of fun, and I HATE MOVING!! We had to make 2 trips, but they were done in a timely manner. They handled my things with care, took down my curtains, took my bed and dresser apart and put them back together, and unhooked my washer and dryer and then hooked my washer back up in the new house (but I had do purchase a new plug receptacle because it was different than the plug that was on my dryer). There was a washer/dryer in the new house that I didn't need, and they even took that back to Marion for me and delivered it to the neighbor that I gave it to, WOW, how about that for service!! I was very pleased with the team, and the service was exceptional, and we had a great time. I would recommend this team/business to anyone! Bonnie B."

Deck Maintenance FAQs, answered by experts

Before installing a deck, you must build a base for the deck to rest upon, often made of compacted soil or gravel. While gravel is an optional material, it helps with drainage. Some contractors also recommend installing a weed control membrane, which helps provide a solid foundation for the frame. In the case of an elevated deck, a pro will often lay down a concrete slab as a foundation. 

Trex states that its Trex decking is an eco-friendly composite material made of 95% recycled or reclaimed materials (including plastic and wood), making it a sustainable brand of choice. According to the company, Trex is one of the largest plastic bag recyclers in the U.S., with each 500-square-foot Trex deck containing about 140,000 recycled plastic bags.

Yes, you can build a deck around a fire pit, as long as it is safely enclosed, meets code requirements, and is at least 15 feet away from your home. You’ll want to ensure you have a heat-resistant barrier between the fire pit and your deck to prevent any structural damage and fires. A galvanized ring surrounded by pavers, brick, or stone makes for a beautiful, safe, and sturdy design.

No, it isn’t necessary to skirt a deck, but investing in the cost to install deck skirting can bring more value to your home. Not only does deck skirting make the deck look more complete, but it can also turn otherwise unused space beneath the deck into useful storage space.

The best time to paint your deck is when temperatures are neither too cold (below 60 degrees) nor too hot (above 85 degrees). Always paint your deck when there’s no risk of rain. For fast-drying paint like acrylic or latex, ensure your deck can dry for at least four hours. Oil-based paints take longer to dry and may require 48 hours to completely cure.
