"Very professional. Jason did repair work, staining and scraped and treated algae on our roof. Took care of everything and returned to complete algae stains. We have a very high and steep third level, and they took care of everything. Jason also did our friends (huge) deck and she was very pleased as well. Powerwashed and stained. Would use again and would recommend."

"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."

"Alick Smith Roofing was a very good company from start to finish.  Someone answered the phone promptly when I called about a roof replacement estimate.  They made an appointment for someone to come over and look at the roof on my home.  That person arrived promptly, was quick, courteous and efficient.  He explained the work, materials and time the job of roof replacement would take.  I was offered 2 choices of type of shingle (GAF Timberline or Altas Pinnacle) and a variety of colors in both.  The written estimate arrived in the mail 2 days later.  The estimate was competitive with other estimates that I had received.  I mailed a deposit with the signed contract and the work was scheduled for the next week.  The roofing crew arrived early in the morning and they started promptly to rip off the old roof.  Then a supervisor arrived in a separate truck.  Shortly thereafter, a dumpster arrived for the old roofing debris.  Then a flatbed truck arrived with the roofing materials.  All the men on the crew were polite, industrious and efficient.  I never heard a hint of foul language amongst them and they stopped only briefly to eat lunch.  One of the men showed me the underlay that was being installed when I asked about it.  The roof took about 7 hours to replace.  They quickly cleaned up around my home and on the decks, handed me an invoice and left.  I am extremely pleased with the work that was done."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Yes, and in some cases, frozen ground may improve the digging process for footings due to sturdier conditions. It’s easier than working in muddy conditions, which are more common in the spring. Contractors may use machinery that makes this step a breeze, so harder ground shouldn’t affect the building process.

Building a deck without a permit could lead to fines for both the homeowner and the contractor. The exact penalties will depend on your state and municipal building laws. You might also be required to remove the deck and apply for a permit before you can build another. While it might be tempting to skip the permit to save a few bucks, it’ll cost you much more if you’re caught.

In most cases, your deck will need some form of deck footing to hold it in place, preventing moisture from rotting your wood and decreasing your deck’s lifespan. Concrete deck blocks are the most common type of footing for floating decks. Some homeowners use ground-level deck footings. For added security, consider digging and laying your ground-level footings below ground.

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.

The proper and most comfortable height for a deck stair riser, also called a step, is between four and seven inches. A height of seven inches is often considered ideal for a strain-free step that minimizes the risk of trips and falls. While it is possible to have risers up to 12 inches, this height can be challenging for children, pets, or individuals with mobility issues. For optimal safety and comfort, pair a seven-inch riser with a tread depth (or run) of at least 10 to 12 inches. Always check your local building codes, as they may have specific requirements that differ from these general recommendations.
