Q: How can I make my deck railing more child- or pet-friendly?

• <div><p>To child- or pet-proof your deck railing, look for railing systems with narrow spacing&mdash;under 4 inches&mdash;between balusters or panels. For added safety, consider installing a clear acrylic or mesh guard along the inside of the railing to prevent small limbs or paws from slipping through. Avoid horizontal rails that adventurous kids can climb like ladders. You can also add self-closing gates at stair openings to limit access.</p></div>

Q: Should lattice touch the ground?

• <div><p>Lattice should not touch the ground, as it creates a possibility for rot and a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-pest-control-termites.htm">termite infestation</a>. It&rsquo;s best to leave a gap of 3 or 4 inches at the bottom for airflow and to keep the wood dry. You can add stones, bricks, or other decorative pieces to conceal the bottom of the lattice if desired.</p></div>

Q: How do you fix rotten deck wood?

• <div><p>When it comes to rotten deck wood, there really is no fixing it in the traditional sense&mdash;it needs to be removed and replaced. While you can certainly do this yourself, we don&rsquo;t recommend it as some of the issues causing wood to rot could have spread throughout your deck and an untrained eye may not be able to notice. The good news is that replacing deck wood isn&rsquo;t the most expensive project, and can seriously increase the quality and aesthetics of your home.</p></div>

Q: Can pros help enhance the aesthetic appeal of a deck or porch during repairs?

• <div><p>Yes, they provide design insights that enhance space utility and visual appeal.</p></div>

Q: How do you remove deck boards with hidden fasteners?

• <div><p>Cutting the boards directly is one of the fastest ways to remove deck boards with hidden fasteners. Mark two parallel lines that are one-third of the total measurement on both ends and cut out the centerpiece. Then, remove the end of the board that doesn&rsquo;t have a fastener. Finally, pry open the fastened side and pull it up to pop out the screw or access the fastener. This also allows you to salvage portions of boards for other projects. </p></div>

Excellent! I don't write reviews unless they are really bad or really good. Power Home Improvement falls in to the really good category. In fact, it's better than good. I'd say it is as good as you can get regardless of what kind of job you want done. I can't recommend Power Home improvement...

Andy and his men were astounding. The Storage building was built by my father and had seen better days. Rather than tear it down I decided to repair it. On the first day, Andy and his men came after I left for work and by lunch already had the old porch pulled off and the debris cleared away...
