"Hire Them He arrived on time, gave me a fair estimate. I asked him to do additional work once he arrived and gave me a fair price for that. I've had my bluestone patio power washed several times over the last 10 years and none of the other people did such a good job. I would highly recommend him again and have recommended him to my neighbors."

Very highly recommended!"

"Jeremiah and his crew were fanstastic. They repaired our walls, refinished and painted them and added new molding. They were in and out in two days and left the house each day immaculately clean. The work was done very professionally and the renovated room looks better than new. We would highly recommend them for great finishing and painting."

"Dave McEvoy and his team took on the job of painting the entire interior of our home including our kitchen cabinets. From the consultation to the end result, we were so impressed with the professionalism, workmanship, and attention to detail. The work that was done is in one word, impeccable. Our home was transformed into a light, bright, and airy space. We could not have achieved the look we were hoping for without Daveâ s guidance and creativity. The project was done during the pandemic. Dave McEvoy and his team followed safety precautions and sanitized the common areas before they left each day. This was incredibly helpful and reassuring as we have a 15-month-old daughter that touches everything! I would without a doubt recommend Dave McEvoy Painting a thousand times over."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Both aluminum and composite decking materials are environmentally friendly, with aluminum decking coming in as the most eco-friendly option. 

Though composite decking helps remove plastics from landfills, recycles wood, and lasts longer than traditional wood decks, it’s not recyclable and only lasts for 25 to 30 years on average. Aluminum can last well over 30 years and is almost always recyclable.

Yes, you can build a deck over your outdoor HVAC unit, but you need to leave at least 5 feet of vertical clearance above the unit. If you don’t want your deck to be that high off the ground, you could build a floating deck in another part of your yard—again, as long as you leave at least 4 feet of horizontal space between the deck and your AC unit.

No, you don’t need a permit to repair and replace a few boards on an existing deck. However, if you’re making structural changes to the deck or tearing down the old one and building a new one, you will likely need a permit. Check with your local municipality for the regulations and rules in your area, or ask a local contractor who builds decks for advice.

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.

Floating decks are a cost-effective and versatile option, but they come with some compromises. Since they sit on smaller footings instead of being deeply anchored, they’re more likely to shift over time, especially in areas with heavy rainfall or freeze-thaw conditions. Their low-to-the-ground design makes them more susceptible to moisture buildup and potential water damage.
