"Ryan, John, Jerry and all of the guys were amazing from start to finish! I needed my ceiling in my living room drywalled. I called A.R.C./G.E.S. less than two weeks from the time I needed someone to do the job for me. Jerry came out and inspected the job promptly, and they quickly put a quote together for me. I only gave them 5 days to complete the job, and they came through. I cannot express enough how happy I am with the work they did, and how quickly they got it done. I was on a very tight timeline for remodeling my living room, and they worked with me every step of the way. Jerry even came back at the end and cleaned up a lot of dirt that probably wasn’t even theirs. I will definitely be calling these guys again when I need some work done."

Mike's Powerwash offers quality work at a good price. Owner works on all jobs with employees. We make sure every job is done right. We take the small jobs and the bigger jobs. Customer satisfaction is our main goal.

"Very friendly guy. Washed house, front sidewalk, inside gutters/ spouts, replaced cap boards on porch railings, stained deck. This was my first house wash in 18 years, so it was VERY dirty, with mud wasp nests, insect residue, and mold. Mike did an overall good job on these items, and the results were very impressive with great improvement, though not perfect. I think doing this on a more regular basis (say every year or so) will make a difference, and I plan to call on him again. He showed up pretty much as scheduled, in spite of a very rainy springtime that must have been a great challenge to his schedule. He doesn't always answer the phone right when you call, but will return your call within a day pretty reliably."

We are a family owned and locally operated basement waterproofing company here in Central PA. We specialize in basement waterproofing and foundation structural repair, as well as water management systems. We use standard billing, which is 1/3 deposit, 1/3 third at start of job and 1/3 upon completion (this varies on job length). We have a variety of special promotional discounts and benefits through the internet, print advertising, and social networking sites. We have certain types of in-house financing available under special circumstances and can be utilized upon companies discretion. We really do care about our customers and want to make sure that every potential client is fully educated about their particular situation so that they can make a smart decision because they have all the facts. We don't want to "sell" anyone. We just want to help you get the right job done for the right price. Give us a shot. We will not let you down.

"Horrible - I had Mike out October of 2019 he impressed my wife and I with his knowledge and what seemed like a caring, stand behind his work man. I saved for 2 years to have Access basement system’s come out and do the job right. On day one the team gutted all exterior walls I was impressed. Day 2 woke up to water all over the basement because they did not reconnect a drain and water from the shower was dumped in the basement. On day 2 only 2 of his crew showed up and that was all we had for the next 2 weeks. The guys that did the work were good guys. No issue there only saw Mike to get money. Water is still coming through the walls worse then before and causing mold. 5 calls And NO response from the family business that cares. I have filed a complaint with the BBB and hope that we can get this resolved. Mike if you see this I hope that we can work this out and you hold up to “we will take care of you like family. “"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Before installing a new railing, check the condition of the deck frame and joists, especially around the perimeter where posts attach. If boards are loose, soft, or show signs of rot, the structure may need repair. A deck pro can inspect your framing to confirm it meets load-bearing requirements.

Most two-person porch swings are rated to hold up to 500 pounds or more. However, each swing manufacturer has its own recommended weight limits, with some as low as 250 pounds while others are as high as 800 pounds. Always double-check the manufacturer’s guide and stay within the recommended range when in doubt.

Although composite decking is extremely durable, it’s also susceptible to extreme heat. Prolonged exposure to sunlight can cause fading, warping, and cracking. Composite also retains heat more than wood, which makes it dangerous to walk on in the summer. You can help prevent heat damage by only building with composite in shaded areas or using rugs to cover the hottest spots.

Deck skirting shouldn’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.

Building codes vary by location, and you should always consult local codes before planning construction. Generally speaking, however, railing requirements stipulate that decks more than 30 inches off the ground need railings for safety purposes. These railings usually need to be at least 36 inches tall, although California and Washington require rails to be 42 inches or taller.
