"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. D&E team is highly responsive and has stayed on top of every detail to get the job perfectly done. they translated our vision to a perfect design an we are very much Satisfy we look forward to years working D&E Lawn Care and pressure washing."

"Being new to this area, I relied on my friend recommendation of Ziibbi and Son Handyman service. We purchased house and wanted to remodel outdated master bathroom. Zibbi and Son Handyman s did a great job. We like his workmanship so much, along with knowledge of plumbing and electrical work so we let him remodel also our guests bathroom. Later on we used them for other small projects around the house and roof. They are very courteous and friendly. Always show up promptly and left work area clean after they finished work. If anyone is looking for relatively inexpensive contractors ( I did my research) but doing quality work, this is the Team! I recommend them for all your household fixes !!! I definitely will use Zibbi and Son Handyman s again for future projects in my home."

"He did a good job. I was satisfied. I called them on the phone and they came about 10 days later. I did not mind because I had other stuff to do. He was conscientious and did extra work which he did not charge for. He always asked me what I wanted done and before he did the work, he explained what he was doing. He had his son and his wife working for him. He got a tooth ache while working and had to leave for about 2 hours to get his tooth inspected. He was very professional."

"Rob did such an amazing job. He installed our baseboard with caulk at an extremely reasonable rate. I love that he does pricing not hourly rates! He was professional ,on time, worked with me and my wifes schedule (she works from home) and cleaned up after instead of leaving it like some do. Will definitely be using him again!! Must hire for any project floors, decks , remodels, etc. You definitely will find a professional with Rob. Most importantly did it in a fast and timely manner."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

No, termites do not eat Trex or any other composite decking brand. Termites eat cellulose, of which composite decking like Trex contains very little compared to natural wood. This feature can help justify the higher Trex decking costs if you live in an area with abundant termites.

The best way to sand a deck is by cleaning it, sanding the boards and stairs with 60- or 80-grit sandpaper, and sanding the railings and posts with 80-grit sandpaper. You should sand in the direction of the wood grain to avoid damaging the timber. When sanding your deck, use medium pressure and aim for an even sand. Pressing too hard with a sander can damage decks, as most are softwoods.

Unless you’re using a 2-in-1 formula or painting over an existing coat of paint, it pays to apply a coat of primer ahead of your new paint. Decks see a lot of footfall and exposure to extreme and sudden temperature changes and moisture levels. The primer promotes better paint adhesion, moisture repellency, and a smoother finish, which means you’ll often need fewer coats of paint. 

Decks require several inspections during and after the building process, but the specifics vary depending on where you live. Most areas mandate that decks comply with local building codes and safety regulations for the foundation, framing, and structure. Some pros recommend a footing inspection, which verifies the depth, width, and location of the various footings to ensure they offer enough foundational support.

Increases livable area and enhances aesthetic, often boosting property appeal.
