"Chris was extremely professional and very skilled at his trade. He completed the work within 2 days of our first contact and kept excellent communication about costs, time of arrival for first consultation and date of service. The projects were challenging and he did incredible carpentry. He was very good at keeping the area clean and respectful of my home. We have already discussed additional work that he will do on the house. I am excited to work with him again and recommend him without reservation. He is a breath of fresh air for someone to really work with a homeowner!"

"Frank and his Team built a beautiful composite deck with integrated lighting. We were under a dead line to have the deck completed for a family event and they delivered on time with an amazing finished product!! All our guests and neighbors were complementing us on the deck. A night when the lights go on it really sets off the back yard of our home. Thanks Frank! You have some highly skilled Team members!!"

"I used MDG Maintenance Service for work at the home of my elderly mother and since I live out-of-state arranging repairs to her home requires trust in a company to show up and complete the repairs in a skillful manner. MDG Maintenance did not disappoint. The work crew stayed connected with me throughout the job from the first visit to the home for an estimate to final completion. I was incredibly pleased that the final cost stayed within the estimated amount for the job. I have already made plans for additional work to be performed at my motherâ  s home. Look no further, MDG Maintenance is the best around!"

"H2O Pro did a fantastic job making my gutters and vinyl siding look brand new again. They even were able to clean the inside of my gutters (which I didn't realize how full they were) for a reasonable price. All within the same day! Very professional and personable, no high pressure sales tactics. In the spring I'm going to have them back to clean/seal my patio, driveway & sidewalks."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Whether you need a permit depends on the deck design and local regulations. Most areas mandate a building permit if the deck is over a specific height or if it's attached to a pre-existing structure. Shorter, freestanding decks may not require a permit, but you should check with local zoning ordinances and your homeowners association for specifics.

There are a variety of second-story deck privacy ideas depending on your budget and aesthetic. For starters, you might consider fencing or tall privacy railing that masks a good portion of the open deck. A pergola or an awning can provide additional cover and shade. Outdoor curtains are an easy way to add or remove privacy at your convenience, plus they’re a wallet-friendly way to decorate your deck.

It is possible to pressure wash your deck, but it’s usually best to leave the work to a professional for two main reasons. First, power washers are expensive, and you can avoid high upfront costs by hiring a deck washing pro instead. Second, you must be careful to use the correct setting to avoid damaging your deck material. You can only clean soft woods like pine with a wide spray and a low pressure; otherwise, the water will leave unpleasant marks on your deck. Hard woods, composite material, and metal can stand up to increasingly higher water pressures.

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.

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.
