"Joe came to repair my porch. I had said that I wanted to use Lowes Deck Correct but he suggested a product by Sherwin Williams. The Deck Correct will fill in any areas up to 1/4" where his product did not. He is a wonderful man, very kind and professional. I just wish he would have used the paint I wanted."

Customers say: Quality work

"I had a smooth and professional experience with Holy Roller Painting. I had several contractors say they would replace/repair my bathroom floor but none ever showed up. This went on for a couple of months. I saw this company advertised on HomeAdvisor, called them one day, and they were here the next day. The crew was professional and knowledgeable and did an outstanding job for a fair price. They had time left before Jim Cole, the mgr. returned to do a final inspection.. In that time they repaired my front screen door for no extra charge. If you are looking for reliability and professionally completed work, you could do no better than to hire this company. I will hire them again if needed and highly recommend them."

With over 12 years of experience in general construction throughout the New England area, I recently relocated to Ohio and am now bringing my skills and experience to homeowners here. My background is primarily in residential carpentry, but after years in the construction industry I’ve developed hands-on experience across multiple trades and project types.\n\nI specialize in finish carpentry, framing, remodeling, repairs, and general home improvement work. I take pride in delivering clean, professional results and treating every project as if it were my own home. I believe communication, reliability, and attention to detail are what separate good contractors from great ones.\n\nWhen problems arise, I focus on finding practical solutions quickly and professionally. If a project requires specialized work beyond my scope, I have a trusted network of experienced professionals I can rely on to make sure the job gets done right.\n\nCurrently serving homeowners throughout the Ohio area and willing

"My deck is stellar!! There aren't enough stars for Fence-N-Deck Doctors. My experience was perfect from the start. Jef the owner came out promptly for estimate. Quick, efficient, fair, professional. The construction started a day early and Bryan was expert--I mean super expert having built decks for over 20 years. The process involved questions and few minor changes (no skirting, 4ft steps, and partial privacy wall adjustment). All interactions with Bryan with questions were so positive and options given so that I would be happy with the end result. Bryan said this and meant it. Yes, it is stressful to make an investment but my friend had referred Fence-N-Deck Doctors and all indicators were these are solid, caring and skilled individuals that work as loyal friends and a team. Bryan was absolutely full of integrity. Everything about my deck being built was beyond my expectations. So hard to find this quality of work in these times. I can recommend Fence-N-Deck Doctors and assure you that you will be treated fairly. I acknowledge being incredibly picky and analytical but even with my high standards, if you are like me you will love the finished product and feel happy with the beauty and craftsmanship! I am not worthy of this beautiful deck made just for me. Thank you Jef, Michelle and Bryan!!"

"It went very well. Two crew members did it in one day. They didn't damage the yard, cleaned everything up and left no debris behind. They were efficient and thorough. They were also very knowledgeable about trees."

"This was a great experience.  From the start Micah separated himself from the other companies that we spoke to about our project.  First, we wanted a company that could do everything for us.  We found lots of patio guys, and lots of landscapers, but not many that did both on top of drainage work.
I scheduled an appointment for a quote.  Micah was the third quote that I had received.  Micah took his time in working up an exact quote for me.  He answered a lot of questions for me.  I appreciated him giving me options, but also his recommendation.  Micah was the most expensive of the three quotes.  However, I hired him as I felt that he understood my needs better than the other companies, and was going to deliver a professional outcome.  Frankly, I trusted Micah.
I ended up delaying the start of the project for personal reasons.  Micah was very understanding and worked with us on changing the start date.  This project was very intimidating to my wife and I .  And not to mention it was a lot of money.  Micah walked us through every step.
When the project started his team arrived as scheduled and began to work.  All of the team was professional and very polite.  They answered all of our questions.  It was very hot when they were working.  I was so impressed with their work ethic.  Their attention to detail was amazing.  
At one point their Bobcat damaged our vinyl siding.  They informed us of the damage and replaced the vinyl siding the next day.
Like any large outdoor project, weather became a factor.  Micah kept us well informed when the weather forced a call off for the day.  The project did take longer than estimated.  However, this is no one's fault.  These large projects run into changes.  I credit Micah for keeping us informed daily. 
And the estimate stuck.  I give Micah a ton of credit for that.
Whatever technique they used to re-seed the grass worked beautifully.  Now, we have a beautiful patio and yard.  The drainage issues that we were having are now non-existent.
Thank you to Dean Landscaping!  We look forward to using you again for the front yard project.

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Deck boards should be spaced no more than three-eighths of an inch apart. This is enough space to allow water and small debris to pass through without collecting on the surface, but not enough to create a tripping hazard. Certain materials, like pressure-treated wood, shrink over time, so they may need less space at installation.

A quality, well-maintained PVC decking can last 30 to 50 years. It’s known for being one of the most durable types of decking materials, with composite decking having a 25- to 30-year average lifespan and some softwood deckings only lasting 10 to 15 years. Luxury hardwood decks like Ipe may last longer than PVC decking, but they can cost more and require more maintenance.

Ultimately, overapplication of stain can compromise the deck's appearance, durability, and longevity. It may result in an uneven finish, with excess stain pooling, dripping, or drying into thick patches. It can also obscure the wood's natural grain and texture, detracting from the desired aesthetic. Moreover, excessive staining may not fully penetrate the wood, leading to poor adhesion and premature wear. Additionally, thick layers of stain are prone to peeling, cracking, and blistering as they struggle to bond with the surface. 

While you can use various materials like sand or even just soil, gravel is widely considered the best option to put under a deck. It provides excellent drainage and is resistant to water, fire, and pests. Gravel also helps anchor the soil to prevent erosion during heavy rain and acts as a built-in weed blocker, reducing regular upkeep. Furthermore, it is simple to spread, available in various textures and tones, and adds a polished look that complements any deck design.

Building codes for deck railings can vary by location, so it's important to consult your local regulations before construction. Generally, a guardrail is required for any deck that is more than 30 inches above the ground.

For residential properties, the standard minimum height for a deck railing is 36 inches. However, some states and municipalities have stricter requirements; for example, California and Washington mandate railings that are at least 42 inches high. Therefore, a 42-inch railing is not considered too high and may be required in your area or chosen voluntarily for additional safety.

In addition to height requirements, codes also specify other safety features, such as the maximum spacing between balusters to ensure they are close enough to prevent a child from squeezing through.
