"I can’t say enough good things about Dallas and his father Bryan. They recently completed several handyman projects around my house, and the quality of their work was outstanding. They were professional, reliable, and paid close attention to every detail from start to finish. Not only did they do excellent work, but they were also honest, respectful, and easy to work with throughout the entire process. They showed up when they said they would, kept everything clean, and made sure the job was done right the first time. It’s hard to find people who genuinely care about their craftsmanship and customer satisfaction the way Dallas and Bryan do. If you’re looking for dependable handyman services, I highly recommend them. I’ll definitely be calling them again for future projects."

"Mr. Torres bid was thousands less than a more recommended competitor. He was also able to start sooner, he started on time, he finished on time, and the total cost was under budget. The quality of the work was outstanding. I canâ t give a higher level of recommendation then I would for this man heâ s does a fantastic work."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Most building codes require that railing spindles (also known as balusters) on decks or stairs be spaced no more than four inches apart. This safety standard is often called the '4-inch sphere rule,' which means a sphere with a 4-inch diameter should not be able to pass through the opening between balusters. This rule is in place to prevent small children and pets from slipping through the railing. For the same reason, the space between the bottom rail and the deck or floor surface should also be no more than four inches. As a general guideline, professionals often install three balusters per foot of railing. However, since specific requirements can vary by location, it is essential to check your local building codes to ensure compliance before starting your project.

It's okay to walk on a newly painted deck after about four to six hours as long as the weather has been dry. Be sure to wait at least 24 hours before you place any outdoor furniture or grills on a freshly painted deck, though.

Before installing a deck, you must build a base for the deck to rest upon, often made of compacted soil or gravel. While gravel is an optional material, it helps with drainage. Some contractors also recommend installing a weed control membrane, which helps provide a solid foundation for the frame. In the case of an elevated deck, a pro will often lay down a concrete slab as a foundation. 

A sunroom is worth installing on a deck, both for the value and your own enjoyment. A Florida room addition costs between $10,000 and $140,000, so it’s pretty expensive. However, a quality sunroom can offer a 50% return on investment, making your home more sellable. Plus, if it’s a space you and your family enjoy relaxing in daily for years to come, it’s worth the money, time, and effort, even without the added monetary value.

That depends on the condition of your deck. An older deck that looks drab, worn, or has multiple damaged boards might be worth replacing before selling. However, if your deck is in good condition, you can simply clean, repaint, or stain it.
