Q: Can you paint a damaged pool deck?

• <div><p>Painting a damaged pool deck is not recommended if the substrate is crumbling, cracking, spalling, or otherwise actively deteriorating. Continuing deterioration will result in the paint also delaminating or flaking off the damaged surface. Minor damage such as chips or hairline cracks that are not actively deteriorating can often be repaired enough to paint over. A damaged pool deck with a lot of cracking and deterioration should be replaced for best results.</p></div>

Q: How do you fix rotten deck wood?

• <div><p>When it comes to rotten deck wood, there really is no fixing it in the traditional sense&mdash;it needs to be removed and replaced. While you can certainly do this yourself, we don&rsquo;t recommend it as some of the issues causing wood to rot could have spread throughout your deck and an untrained eye may not be able to notice. The good news is that replacing deck wood isn&rsquo;t the most expensive project, and can seriously increase the quality and aesthetics of your home.</p></div>

Q: Can rotten deck boards be repaired?

• <div><p>Rotten deck boards can sometimes be repaired, but only if the damage is minor. Repairing small patches of rot involves strengthening the damaged area with wood hardener, filler, or epoxy. More substantial damage requires replacing the boards or rebuilding the entire structure in extreme cases. If the rot extends to the joists, posts, or beams, have a contractor evaluate the damage to ensure it is still structurally sound.</p></div>

Q: Can I use a snow blower on a deck or patio?

• <div><p>Yes, but it works best with lightweight snowblowers, the single-stage models or electric versions. Also, you need to have a rubberized intake edge on the ground and preferably rubberized auger paddles, not a metal version. Otherwise you may chip or damage the surface as you work. When it doubt, let the snow lie.</p><p>You can also use a snow blower on leveled gravel, but only if you carefully adjust the intake height so it doesn&rsquo;t kick up the gravel and turn it into flying missiles.</p></div>

Q: Should deck skirting touch the ground?

• <div><p>Deck skirting shouldn&rsquo;t touch the ground, especially if you have a wood deck, which is vulnerable to moisture. Ideally, you should leave at least 3/4 of an inch of space between the deck skirting and the ground for more ventilation. Pros also recommend that you incorporate about 1 square foot of space for ventilation for the underside of the deck to every 150 square feet of decking. Proper ventilation prevents mold growth and rot that can damage your deck.</p></div>

We were very happy with the replacement of our old deck by S&S Builders. They even ran into some rain but kept right on working. The team was awesome and the owner, Will, completed everything he promised. I will be having this Company back again for future work.

Repaired but ultimately replaced furnace in our garage. Noticed safety issues of which we were unaware. Checked house furnace and sold us a maintenance agreement that covers all furnaces and pays for service calls for a year.

Mr. Panza did a great job for us. He did our deck and sealed our driveway. He used premium grade products on both jobs and gave a fair price. We will use him again. Our neighbor saw the work and he will do their deck next week. His is a 5 star company.

They replaced it under the warranty agreement this year. The service was good, the new machine is good. You do have to buy a new maintenance agreement when you get your new machine. I was happy with the service they provided.

The offer of $349 for 50 ft. of Pavers was just perfect for what I needed. I have a wood deck with a set of steps off the back and another set of steps on the side. I merely wanted a landing of pavers at the foot of each set of steps, one being 6 ft. x 5 ft. and the other being 5 ft. x 4 ft. ...
