"Jason worked extremely hard to remove the old paint on our back patio. It was very resistant to both the stripper chemicals used and the power washing efforts. The pointing of the brick on the front patio came out well."

"Ernesto and his family are absolutely delightful people. Very pleasant and personable. It was a pleasure doing business with them. I can't say enough good about them. My story... I was in a bind. I had previously hired a crew to clean up and re-mulch the planting beds , trim hedges, and general clean-up and trimming. They butchered just about everything they touched. My yard and plantings were a mess. I had an appraiser scheduled in just a few days, and was desperate to find help. So I went online and ended up signing up with Home Advisor. Within an hour, Ernesto called me. I explained my situation and needs. I think he felt sorry for me because he re-arranged his work load and was at my house a couple of hours later. They set right to work and worked diligently util dusk, and were back early the next morning hard at work. They were very accommodating, and even picked up and hauled off several large limbs that had been knocked down in a recent storm. When they were finished, I was amazed at how good my yard and planting beds looked. The care and effort put forth by them was something you don't see much of anymore. the final result was worthy of a postcard. Ernesto lists several other services on his card. I plan to call him in the future. Robert Hand Kingstree, S,C."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Space deck handrail posts four to six feet apart. If the posts are more than six feet apart, the railing will be less able to withstand lateral forces and is more susceptible to breaking. Additionally, railing posts that are more than six feet apart may not be up to code, and you may face fines and be required to reinstall the posts to bring them up to code.

Footings for ground-level decks need to be at least 12 inches deep, and some areas require them to be even deeper. A standard range for deck footings is anywhere from 12 to 48 inches. The minimum footing depth is determined by an area’s frost line and soil conditions. If you’re unsure how deep to install deck footings, check local building codes to find the minimum footing depth in your area. 

Building a deck is often worth the investment, not only because it provides more utility to your yard and gives you more space to entertain but also because decks tend to add value to your home. Keep in mind that second-story decks often require concrete footings, which means they will bump up your property taxes, while decks built on the first story generally don’t require a permanent foundation and won’t affect your taxes. Even with the tax increase, decks are usually a good investment in the long run.

When staining a deck, don’t skip surface prep, avoid staining damp or dirty boards, and don’t apply stain in extreme heat, cold, or wet conditions. Never overload the wood with a stain, as too much can cause tackiness or peeling. Also, don’t forget to test a small area first to ensure the color and finish look right.

It is possible to pressure wash your deck, but it’s usually best to leave the work to a professional for two main reasons. First, power washers are expensive, and you can avoid high upfront costs by hiring a deck washing pro instead. Second, you must be careful to use the correct setting to avoid damaging your deck material. You can only clean soft woods like pine with a wide spray and a low pressure; otherwise, the water will leave unpleasant marks on your deck. Hard woods, composite material, and metal can stand up to increasingly higher water pressures.
