"I have an extremely large tree that is started dropping large limbs. All the other services I spoke with were anywhere from 2 weeks to over a month before they could come remove the tree. I was told though that the tree would be fine for a while. 2 dropped limbs later and 2 electrician calls later I found Wes-Tex on Home Advisor. I called them up on a rainy day (it rained about 2 inches that day) and they came to look at the tree. They cut down a large limb that hit the side of our house but was still hanging from the tree. They are coming back out tomorrow to remove the rest of the tree. They are extremely reasonable when it came to price. Despite the emergency call they were still cheaper than a couple of the tree services that would take over a month to get this tree out. Unless something drastic happens tomorrow I cannot recommend Wes-Tex enough. They may be saving us thousands of dollars and potential lawsuits by removing this tree faster than anyone else could, and they are not overcharging. I cannot thank them enough."

"Jim did an extensive remodel on a rent house for us. He gave good advice and was talented enough to handle all the projects including plumbing, electrical, ceiling fans, window install, door and jam replacement, new shower where used to be a tub, painting and texturing. Always responded to calls or texts and asked questions when something popped up we hadn t discussed. Worked hard and had some workers who were similarly diligent. It was a good experience for us and that isn t always the case with everyone you hire."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Whether composite decking is better than wood depends on your priorities, especially regarding budget and maintenance. Composite decking offers superior longevity (30 to 50 years) and durability, and it is low-maintenance, requiring no sanding, staining, or sealing. In contrast, wood decks typically last 10 to 30 years and need refinishing every few years. While the upfront cost of composite is higher than wood, the reduced maintenance can lead to long-term savings. If a lower initial cost is the primary factor, wood is the more affordable choice.

To maximize the utility of space under a deck, it’s important to keep this area dry and clean. One way to prevent the area from becoming too wet is to install an under-deck draining system. This affordable home upgrade channels water away from the deck and provides usable space for storage or a functional area below a second-story deck. Not only will this be a useful maintenance upgrade, it can boost your home’s property value.

There are ways to clean your deck to help maintain a clean appearance. You can easily remove surface-level dirt and grime by wetting your deck with a hose and doing a quick scrub with store-bought deck cleaner monthly. 

However, investing in professional deck cleaning services near you at least twice a year is worth it. This service saves you time and ensures that your deck will avoid accidentally becoming scratched by blasting the pressure washer at the wrong angle.

The best direction for a gate to swing depends on its location and purpose, but swinging inward is the general rule. An inward swing is often considered safer, prevents the gate from opening into public spaces like a sidewalk, and may be required by local building codes.

There are exceptions and specific considerations. If your property is on a slope, an inward swing might not be possible. For a deck gate, it's safest to have it swing away from any steps. In a backyard, the direction can be a matter of preference, though an inward swing can be helpful when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.

Regardless of direction, ensure the gate can open fully without hitting any objects or blocking spaces. While an inward swing is standard, a gate that can swing both in and out offers the most flexibility if your setup allows for it.

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.
