"Jim did wonderful work on refinishing floors that had been carpeted. They are exactly how I remembered them. He explained everything along the way and contacted me when something came up that was unexpected (as one might have when carpet covers everything. He is timely and a wonderful personality to work with. I'm sure I will contact him again for other work."

"Andrew installed 2 retaining walls and did some landscaping. I was very pleased with his professionalism and the quality of his work. He does good hardscape and landscape work, but he worked alone much of the time and the scope of the jobs he can do is limited accordingly. I plan to hire him next spring for an additional project and would not hesitate to recommend him."

"Eric repaired existing laminate wood flooring in my Mt Washington condo. Despite weeks of shopping I could not find panels to match and only Eric offered to do the job with the little existing stock we had. He offered to do the job within a week of our first meeting but my wife insisted on trying to find more panels to no avail. Eric showed up a week after we called him back with a very qualified assistant and finished the job within about 4 hours. It is absolutely perfect and he came in at half the price of the other contractor we talked to (the original installer BTW). All I can say is Eric and his company are great. His website says he is out of Indiana PA but he clearly services Pittsburgh."

"Seth Foor is a personable, conscientious young man, well-equipped both physically and mentally for competently and effectively completing any number of "odd jobs" for which a homeowner might hire a contractor. I spoke with him over the phone concerning a number of handyman jobs; he proved knowledgeable, experienced, and interested in the work. Upon arranging an appointment for an estimate, Seth arrived at my house having done his homework. We discussed window and door issues, and Seth was well prepared with information and suggestions, even recommending a number of internet videos I might watch to get a better grip on the issues at hand. Seth was ready to go the next day and arrived promptly with tools and eagerness to do a good job. And he did a good job. I will be pleased to hire Seth in the future. I can trust he'll do a professional job. As he was leaving, Seth spied my Yamaha guitar leaning against a wall and we ended up having a discussion about music and guitar playing. Seth proves quite competent at that, too. A musician with hands skilled not only for guitar strings but as well for hammers, saws, wrenches, screw drivers, drills, paint brushes ... what have you -- that marks Seth Foor. If you need a handy man, Seth Foor can very well fill the demands of the role and at reasonable rates. Give him a call. I'm glad I did."

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.

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.

Yes, pressure washing a wood deck can be a good idea as it effectively lifts ingrained dirt, mold, and mildew, improving the deck's appearance and longevity. However, it must be done carefully, as it's easy to damage the wood, especially softwoods. To pressure wash safely, use a lower pressure setting and a wide, 40-degree fan pattern nozzle (often white). Keep the nozzle at least a foot away from the wood surface and maintain constant motion, avoiding hovering in one spot to prevent gouging.

Homeowners should build their floating decks at least 18 inches off the ground. Having it at this height will allow for better airflow underneath and help prevent moisture-related problems like warping or rot. That being said, local guidelines for deck heights may vary depending on where you live.

The choice between Trex, a brand of composite decking, and PVC decking depends on your priorities regarding budget, appearance, and environmental impact. Both materials are durable and resistant to moisture and insects. Trex is often considered more eco-friendly because it contains recycled wood and plastic and is 25% recyclable, while PVC is fully synthetic and harder to recycle. Aesthetically, Trex is designed to look more like real wood, whereas PVC often has a glossier, more plastic-like finish. In terms of cost, Trex is typically less expensive than PVC.
