"This was the worse company I have ever dealt with. We signed a contract in March 2022 and on April 1st. 2022 the hole was dug. Fast forward to July when the rain had washed out the sides of the hole because Bill had not started any other work on our pool. He finally showed up with some pool walls and placed them. Fast forward to September. He put he the pool liner in and filled with water. Fast forward to November. He stopped working on the project. Fast forward to March 2023. He showed up to see what need to be taken care of to finish the project. Fast forward to May 2023 the project was complete. The concrete is cracking because he waited to long to saw cut expansion joints and he never came back to give us the $2000 pool cover we paid for. We sued him in February 2024 and won. He still hasn’t paid us. I’m writing this on February 22 2025"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

The main cause of a rotting porch post is prolonged exposure to moisture. So, the best way to prevent rot is to eliminate and guard against moisture.

  • Use wood caulk to seal any cracks, openings, or areas along the post where water is likely to pool.

  • Secure porch posts into concrete, if possible.

  • Cover wooden posts with protective sleeves or wraps, often made of vinyl.

  • Install metal post anchors for extra support.

There are several methods of supporting a balcony. Very small balconies, such as Juliet balconies that don't include any usable floor space and don't need to support human weight, may simply require supporting bolts drilled into the home's structure. Cantilevering is a method that requires no additional exterior supports, and larger balconies typically need posts and footings to carry the weight from below.

It is definitely worth sanding a deck to ensure the wood absorbs new stain. Sanding a deck removes the outer layers of aging wood, allowing the stain to penetrate. It also gives a fresh look to the entire surface as part of the deck refinishing process. Without sanding, your stain or sealant is less likely to absorb into the wood. While sanding a deck is a time-intensive project, the rewards are noticeable and long-lasting.

Minor fixes like patching leaks or repainting are DIY-friendly, but structural repairs require professional expertise.

There are several methods for attaching stair stringers to a deck. The best way is to bolt the stringers to the deck joists using three carriage bolts in a triangular pattern. This method offers the sturdiest fit for stairs that won’t budge. Alternatively, attach the stringers to the deck rims using lag bolts or to the posts using adjustable slope hangers.
