"It was a true pleasure dealing with Chris F. He did some work for us to make our house more handicap accessible and it immediately has made a huge difference in our lives. While he was here we added a couple more general tasks that have been on my "honey-do" list forever. He was very flexible and quick to fix the extra items. He did a fabulous job on everything, we are so happy. His pricing was very very reasonable. I am already accumulating my next "Chis please fix this" list I'd like him to do around the house and yard. I would highly recommend him for other people to hire for small to large projects."

"Mike Concheck from MDG Maintenance repaired our roof and then fixed the ceiling where the roof leak had left damage. He did a great job on both projects, finishing in one day. We have called MDG Maintenance twice now, and both times we have been very pleased with the workmanship and professionalism of the service contractors. What a relief it is as a homeowner to be able to call upon a reliable company to do those jobs we cannot do ourselves."

"We couldn?t be happier with our new deck! From start to finish, the contractor was professional, reliable, and paid attention to every detail. The craftsmanship is outstanding, and the finished deck looks even better than we imagined. He kept the work area clean, communicated clearly throughout the project, and completed everything on time. It's obvious he takes pride in his work, and it shows in the quality of the finished product. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a beautiful, well-built deck. Thank you for an amazing job!"

"The work consisted of repairing a stress crack running down the length of my living room ceiling and repainting a bedroom which included removing a wallpaper border at the ceiling. The living room ceiling is textured which required fixing the crack, re-texturing the entire ceiling and repainting. John Garrity explained my options and him and his crew did exceptional work. They were punctual, kept me updated along the way and cleaned up everything when done. In addition, a last minute job was hanging a ceiling fan in the painted bedroom which was not part of the initial work. I would definitely hire them again."

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

Both deck footings and deck posts help prop up your deck. However, footings are the bottommost parts of a deck that touch the ground. They’re usually made of concrete. Posts are pieces of wood that attach to the top of the footings with brackets. They run upwards and connect to the underside of your deck to support its weight.

Staining and sealing the underside of a deck creates a moisture barrier but traps water in the boards, quickly leading to rot. No matter how well you seal the above deck, water still gets through via nails and screw heads on the surface. Allow this water to flow naturally under the deck, where it is routed through the drainage system.

No, you don’t need a permit to repair and replace a few boards on an existing deck. However, if you’re making structural changes to the deck or tearing down the old one and building a new one, you will likely need a permit. Check with your local municipality for the regulations and rules in your area, or ask a local contractor who builds decks for advice.

Hangers are one way of attaching stair stringers to a deck. These metal hangers are usually adjustable, allowing you to find the ideal angle for a secure installation. They’re the best choice for installing longer staircases, such as one on a two-story deck, to reduce the load on the deck frame while keeping the stairs stable.

In most cases, sanding an old deck before staining it is necessary to achieve a decent finish. If your old deck has a relatively new stain finish on it and you're only doing touch-ups, you can generally skip the sanding part. However, if your goal is to make the deck look and function better, sanding first is a must.
