"My wife and I were thrilled with the work that D&E Lawn Care and pressure washing Team did at our home. We reached out originally as D&E Lawn Care and pressure washing had done a project with us a few years ago when they just started an We were thrilled to learn that the Company now offers full property services in our area. We engaged them for a new landscape design and for property maintenance services. The process was seamless from the first call we made an they rezch to work on time , and the result is just what we hoped for! D&E and the whole crew, they were extremely caring and professional throughout the project. I would be remiss if we did not acknowledge the extraordinary focus and passion D&E brings to the work.

"We hired Mr. Gorman initially for Deck repair, power washing, deck stain, side vinyl work, and gate installation. While he was completing the jobs we had listed above we had also asked for additional work to be done on our lattice as well as our garage floor. While he did replace the boards on the deck that needed repair, some were not properly screwed and were still loose after he left. We did not realize any of this initially. He then pressure-washed the lower deck by our pool and stained it. After the job was completed we had no idea all of the paint chips from our deck and his power washing went directly into the pool. Our pool robot has been filled with paint chips since he left and we are now having issues with cleaning that up. While painting the deck, he never masked anything so everything around the deck was sprayed the paint color which included our Japanese Maple Tree and flowers. When he constructed the gates, the screws were too big and the sharp ends were exposed. When it came to the lattice he choose the plastic one instead of asking what we preferred. Once he brought it to our house we informed him we did not like it and we were unhappy with his purchase We informed him we would prefer the wooden one instead. While he had put the lattice up the job seemed rushed as it fell a few days after he left due to there not being any nails in the lattice. During this whole process, we had a dumpster here for our personal use so that we could clean out our basement. It was never intended for deck cleanup or anything that had to do with the jobs being done by Tom. He initially asked to throw out a few boards and we approved. On his last day here, he threw out all of the old lattice, wood, his tools that broke we could not even finish throwing out our items from our basement because of this. He never even asked permission to do it again. Instead, he piled up our dumpster to the top and had wood everywhere. Our yard was left a mess with broken wood and old nails exposed which is a huge issue when you have children and animals. It is just coming courtesy to clean up after yourself. After he had finished completing the job and left we noticed a few things. We contacted him about our concerns such as the lattice falling off, as well as the stairs and the deck being loose and not secure. He informed us he would be by in a few days. He came over today without notifying anyone and while he was here our security system overheard him talking badly about us. He nailed the lattice and it ended up splitting and half of it is still not secure . He failed to do the other things I addressed via text. Overall, there was little attention to detail when it came to painting, fixing the deck steps, putting together the gates as well as proper disposal of work items/materials. When meeting him he seemed as if he would do whatever we wanted to satisfy us. Towards the end, it seemed to us that he wanted to get the job done and get his money! To pay almost 14,000 and still have all these issues is just not acceptable. We are not happy with this experience."

"Ray responded instantly to my request for a bathroom exhaust fan and came soon after to price it out. As this is required by city for a certificate of occupancy, i also needed a stair rail and an anti-tip bracket on my kitchen range. He gladly accepted the additional work and the requirement to meet a tight deadline. He priced out the job, provided an estimate within a week and finished the job in one day. He ran into a double set of rafters in the ceiling, which he solved to our satisfaction. He is very well tempered, mannerly and expert at his craft. He also was fastidious in cleanup. Ray defines customer service."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

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.

The best base materials for a ground-level or floating deck are typically gravel and crushed stone (also known as landscaping rocks). These options are inexpensive, provide excellent drainage, prevent weeds, and help minimize moisture buildup, which reduces shifting and rotting. For added stability and to evenly distribute the weight, you can use concrete deck blocks or pavers. While more expensive, concrete blocks and pavers offer a sturdier base than gravel or crushed stone alone.

It is possible to build your own deck, but it’s typically better to leave the work to a decking professional. Decks can be exceptionally complicated, especially if you want a wrap-around or second-story deck, and you don’t want to risk making an expensive or dangerous mistake. It’s usually better to hire a decking pro who can pull permits and build a structurally sound deck that will last for decades and provide the maximum return on investment.

The proper height for a stair riser or deck step is between four and seven inches, with seven inches often considered the most comfortable. Building your stairs to this height ensures a strain-free step position and minimizes the risk of trip and fall injuries. For optimal safety and comfort, especially on deck stairs, a rise of around seven inches should be paired with a tread depth (or run) of at least 10 to 12 inches. While it is possible to design stairs with risers up to 12 inches, this height can be challenging for children, pets, or individuals with mobility issues. Always check with your local building codes, as they may mandate specific dimensions that differ from these general recommendations.

Yes, it is generally safe to have a fire pit on a deck, but you must adhere to building codes and take several safety precautions. For both built-in and freestanding models, you must use a heat-resistant barrier, such as a fire pit pad or heat shield, between the pit and the deck. Additionally, consider the weight of the fire pit and ensure your deck can structurally support it, reinforcing it if necessary. The fire pit must also be positioned a safe distance from your house, particularly from materials like vinyl siding, to prevent heat damage.
