"Mr. Brian & Ms. Cathy are the real deal. Very professional, very courteous and did a fantastic job with our painting project. My wife and I had a vision of what we wanted it to look like. It looks just as we envisioned. First Brian pressure washed the exterior wall of the house that faces the lake and the railings. There were dead bugs stuck to the side of the house that were hard to remove. Brian painted an exterior wall to the house while his wife, Cathy painted the hand rails along the upstairs deck and stairs. Matched the exterior wall perfect with the rest of the house. Painted the railings and the trim work white. After Brian finished painting the exterior wall, he helped Cathy paint the railings and the trim. This is all that was in our budget right now. We will definitely call them back at a later date to paint the rest of the house. Pricing was very reasonable and I enjoyed being here while they worked. I caught a few catfish and fried them up to share with them for lunch. Brian even cleaned the fish for me. Lol. I would highly recommend Brian and Cathy Verrett. It is so nice to see a husband and wife team who works so well together."

"I have nothing but good to say about this young man. He gave us a helluva deal on our fence with 2 gates, .metal poles, etc. He made good suggestions and listened to me ramble on about other ideas. Fast, efficient, competent and just an all around good young man. I would definitely hire him to do more jobs for me."

"Billy was prompt, arrived as he said he would. He completed the work and additionally pressure washed the front porch for a very reasonable price. Billy was professional, knowledgeable about the gutter guards I asked about installing. He didn't try to sell me what I didn't need. I plan to use Beautiful Homes and Windows painting services also."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

You can use a few different tactics to prevent your deck gate from sagging. Aside from using strong, rot-resistant woods, introducing a diagonal element—such as a tension rod or solid piece of wood to act as a brace—across the gate will offer better support. You can also use rigid joists to prevent the gate from sagging.

Yes, you can build a deck over your outdoor HVAC unit, but you need to leave at least 5 feet of vertical clearance above the unit. If you don’t want your deck to be that high off the ground, you could build a floating deck in another part of your yard—again, as long as you leave at least 4 feet of horizontal space between the deck and your AC unit.

When building an outdoor or deck gate, it's crucial to use durable wood that can withstand harsh weather conditions like sunlight, rain, wind, and snow. Redwood and cedar are excellent choices as they naturally resist decay. While redwood is considered more elegant, cedar is a more affordable option. Other suitable woods include oak and pressure-treated pine, which is specifically treated to resist rot. Although some softwoods like pine are popular, untreated softwoods such as pine and spruce should generally be avoided for outdoor projects because they are susceptible to damage from water, rot, and the sun. Ultimately, it's wise to consider your local climate when selecting the right wood for your gate.

Yes, it is generally safe to have a fire pit on a deck, but you must adhere to building codes and take several safety precautions. For both built-in and freestanding models, you must use a heat-resistant barrier, such as a fire pit pad or heat shield, between the pit and the deck. Additionally, consider the weight of the fire pit and ensure your deck can structurally support it, reinforcing it if necessary. The fire pit must also be positioned a safe distance from your house, particularly from materials like vinyl siding, to prevent heat damage.

The choice between Trex, a brand of composite decking, and PVC decking depends on your priorities regarding budget, appearance, and environmental impact. Both materials are durable and resistant to moisture and insects. Trex is often considered more eco-friendly because it contains recycled wood and plastic and is 25% recyclable, while PVC is fully synthetic and harder to recycle. Aesthetically, Trex is designed to look more like real wood, whereas PVC often has a glossier, more plastic-like finish. In terms of cost, Trex is typically less expensive than PVC.
