"Dan and Mike were honest, upfront, and professional. We hired them to do a few small things and decided to have them do other work that we had been thinking about getting completed eventually. They gave us reasonable options, worked around our schedule and upfront with all expenses and labor costs. We have recommended them to many friends and already have other projects they are looking at for us."

My crew consists of me and Dan. I’m very fortunate to get 10-20 calls a week and be very busy. Often I’m booked up 6-12 weeks in advance. So if you’re looking for something ASAP then most likely I can’t help but occasionally I I can get to some. So it’s best if your able to plan ahead. I perform home repairs and remodeling. My work varies from small repairs such as drywall patches, hanging doors, trim work, handrails to remodeling bathrooms, kitchens or basements. I try to keep the work I do limited to what Dan and I can do. I will sub out larger plumbing and electrical work when needed. I've got away from working on roofs. I provide free estimates when I have time to look at jobs. I don't mark up the price on materials. I'm sorry I don't take credit cards. Cash or checks are fine.

"Jim and Dan did several plaster repairs and painted as needed to our complete satisfaction. Work was scheduled and done in a timely manner and with quality workmanship."

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.

If your contractor isn't sourcing your new porch columns for you, you can find them at your local home improvement store or hardware store. You can also order them online for delivery. If you want a unique look or want to save some money, you can also source porch columns from auctions and restore them before having them installed.

Your deck may pop, and your neighbor’s deck may not for a number of reasons. Whether or not a deck pops will depend on how it was made, the conditions it’s exposed to, and the materials. Improper spacing is a common reason for increased pressure between deck boards. Moisture penetration is another.

A wood deck needs an annual cleaning, plus refinishing every two to three years, which involves sanding the deck and applying stain or sealer. If you have a painted deck, you’ll need to repaint it every 10 years. You should also fix and repair loose or broken deck boards, nails, and screws. Cleaning your deck regularly and applying sealant protects the wood from the elements, water damage, rot, mildew, and fading from the sun.

Your porch could be crumbling due to poor installation, freeze and thaw cycles, or intense pressure washing or sandblasting. If your concrete was poured and cured improperly, moisture can seep into the concrete. When the water freezes and thaws, it causes stress to the structure, leading to cracks and crumbling. If you pressure wash concrete on too high of a setting or sandblast the surface, the concrete can also crumble.
