I’m Bob The Handyman, I am a graduate from Johnson College with a degree in carpentry and cabinetmaking. I have worked in the home construction field since 1977. Initially, it was a part-time pace while working for UPS. Upon retiring, I began working as a handyman full-time. I know many different applications in home construction; and will be up front with customers if I can't do certain jobs. I always try to do my best, and promise not to cut corners or use cheap materials to get the job completed. I want every homeowner that I work with to be satisfied and happy with the job I complete! License # PA014304.

"I had completed most of the install and could not get the doors perfect. Bob came and quickly corrected the problem AND shared his knowledge. He further advised/taught me on how to properly insulate and finish the project. Very helpful, caring and kind."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

To maximize the utility of space under a deck, it’s important to keep this area dry and clean. One way to prevent the area from becoming too wet is to install an under-deck draining system. This affordable home upgrade channels water away from the deck and provides usable space for storage or a functional area below a second-story deck. Not only will this be a useful maintenance upgrade, it can boost your home’s property value.

Cold temperatures can make your deck boards contract. If they don’t contract evenly, they can put pressure on the deck screws and cause them to pop out, making a noticeable sound. Winterizing your deck can help prevent this from happening.

While the terms deck and porch are often used interchangeably, they are two distinct home features. Porches offer a roof that protects from the elements when coming and going from the house. Generally, porches are on the front of your home. On the other hand, decks are generally built in the backyard of a home and offer no roof or protection from the elements, like rain or snow. Porches typically require less maintenance and upkeep thanks to the roof, but both features require regular cleaning and repairs to maintain good condition.

There are several methods of supporting a balcony. Very small balconies, such as Juliet balconies that don't include any usable floor space and don't need to support human weight, may simply require supporting bolts drilled into the home's structure. Cantilevering is a method that requires no additional exterior supports, and larger balconies typically need posts and footings to carry the weight from below.

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.
