"I had a FABRIC awning that was very dirty. Boyz Handyman DID A GREAT JOB! The awning had to be done by hand and treated carefully so you don’t tear it. I had patio cleaned and a few extra cleaning projects and everything was cleaned nice and looks great. They also sealed my patio with one coat of seal to keep it nice. Yes, I would recommend this company."

"The SparKlean team was outstanding. They arrived on time, worked ho*** ** my flooring project for two days straight, and even purchased products on my behalf that we’re needed. They were very kind, easy to work with, and I would recommend them to anyone. Their work was outstanding. They focused on the small details as well as the more extensive nuisances. Also, their pricing was outstanding! I hadn’t found anyone that even competed with their price. Do yourself a favor and give them a call; you won’t be disappointed. I couldn’t have gotten a better deal or result anywhere else!"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

In general, you need a footing at each corner of your deck, and within 8 feet of each other. So, how many you need depends on the size and shape of your deck, plus any local building codes. It also depends on factors like the load capacity of your soil and the weight of your deck. You can find a footing calculator online or contact a pro for support.

The best and fastest way to remove paint from a deck often involves combining a chemical stripper with a pressure washer. Gel-based paint strippers are highly recommended because their thick consistency makes them less messy and easier to apply than liquid strippers. After applying the stripper to loosen the paint, you can use a pressure washer to efficiently wash away the residue. When using a pressure washer for this task, it's important to use a low pressure (under 1000 PSI) to avoid forcing too much moisture into the wood, which could lead to mildew or rot.

Pressure-treated decking may be worth it if you want a natural, insect- and rot-resistant decking material that will last for decades with proper maintenance. As such, it’s a much better option than untreated pine. Alternative wood decking materials like cedar and redwood tend to be less durable and more expensive. Some homeowners prefer composite decking, which is a low-maintenance alternative to wood but is also more costly.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.

It’s best to prime composite decking before painting. This promotes better paint adhesion, helps create a smooth finish, and can mean the paint job will last longer. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for application, allow ample primer drying time before painting (typically 24 to 48 hours), and thoroughly clean the deck boards to promote the best adhesion.
