"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."

"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

You do not have to dig footers for a deck as long as it meets local code and holds up to weather in your area. If you live somewhere that experiences high winds and earthquakes, you may need to dig for your deck posts. Deck blocks, post anchors with base plates, and helical pile systems are the three no-dig deck post options you can choose from if local code permits.

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.

The cost to build a second-story deck averages $4,800, though the actual price could range as low as $420 to upwards of $16,000. While labor costs range between 35% and 50% of the total project cost, the materials and complexity of design will ultimately lead you to save or spend more money on this home addition.

Pressure-treated decks last 15 to 20 years on average, but with proper maintenance, you could get 40 to 50 years of value from yours. Reseal your deck every one to two years, and replace old or rotted wood as soon as possible to avoid structural damage. Where you live plays a role in the lifespan of your deck. Intense sunlight, rainfall, wind, and hail can reduce the deck’s lifespan.

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.
