"Reliable Repairs tore down and replaced an existing wooden privacy fence in three days after contract signed. Replacement fence is actually structurally better than original. I was a great experience for meâ ¦"

"Outstanding work! I almost hate to post this review because I imagine Kris is going to be so busy going forward that I’ll never be able to hire him again. We needed to have an office closed off with French doors. Kris came in, sized it up and went to work. Great attention to detail, great craftsmanship, and great design; argue better than the original builder. Kris is a man of his word and gets the job done. Great job! I will definitely use him for additional projects. Highly recommend!"

"I recently hired Music City Improvements for an interior painting and wall paneling project, and I couldn't be more impressed! From start to finish, their team was professional, detail-oriented, and incredibly skilled. The interior painting was flawless—sharp lines, smooth finishes, and perfect color application that transformed my space. They helped me choose the right shades to match my décor and ensured everything was clean and precise. The wall paneling work was equally stunning. Their craftsmanship added a level of sophistication to my home that exceeded my expectations. Every panel was installed with care, creating a seamless and polished look. Beyond the quality of their work, their team was punctual, friendly, and respectful of my home, leaving everything spotless when they finished. If you're looking for top-notch painting and paneling services, I highly recommend Music City Improvements. Their attention to detail and commitment to excellence make them stand out! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ – Five stars all the way!"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, pressure washing a wood deck can be a good idea as it effectively lifts ingrained dirt, mold, and mildew, improving the deck's appearance and longevity. However, it must be done carefully, as it's easy to damage the wood, especially softwoods. To pressure wash safely, use a lower pressure setting and a wide, 40-degree fan pattern nozzle (often white). Keep the nozzle at least a foot away from the wood surface and maintain constant motion, avoiding hovering in one spot to prevent gouging.

When sourced responsibly, the most sustainable wood decking options are timber trees like redwood, pine, Douglas fir, Nootka cypress, and Western red cedar. These tree species are fast-growing with low carbon emissions. Plus, most timber woods make durable deck materials because of their resistance to rot and decay over time. 

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.

In most cases, sanding an old deck before staining it is necessary to achieve a decent finish. If your old deck has a relatively new stain finish on it and you're only doing touch-ups, you can generally skip the sanding part. However, if your goal is to make the deck look and function better, sanding first is a must.
