"Great! They arrived at the time they promised. They were careful around my shrubs. The brick and siding of the house looked great and I was shocked at the difference having the driveway pressure washed made. I have asked them to contact me every 6 months to have it done again."

"L&N Services has helped me for over five years with multiple handyman projects including but not limited to carpentry work, painting, window resealing, cleaning, moving, organizing, holiday decor, garage door repair, lawn and pool care, power washing and general plumbing. L&N is very dependable and honest in their work. They are always on time, have an extremely high work ethic, and charge very reasonable rates. L&N is respectful of my home, possessions and respectful to me and my family as well. L&N has set very high expectations for themselves and are very detail oriented which is continually impressive to me. They are creative and will spend time researching a project that may be unfamiliar to them, always with positive results. I have been extremely happy with L&Nâ s work over the last five years and will continue to use them. It is hard to find quality people like L&N and once I found them I did not and do not want to ever let them go! I am glad to give any references, generally or project specific, for L&N Services."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

There are approximately 5.33 board feet in a 2x4. You can use the board foot calculator in this article to easily find the answer. A 2x4 is 2 inches of thickness by 4 inches of width, so you need to find the length, with 8 feet being the most common. You’d use the calculator here to multiply 2 times 4 times 8, and then divide by 12, arriving at a total of 5.33 board feet. 

What goes under your floating deck depends on your preferences. Some homeowners put landscaping fabric underneath their decks to prevent weeds from popping up through the boards. Others choose to build a floating deck over grass or gravel. However, it’s best not to set your deck directly on the ground. Instead, set your deck on blocks to keep it elevated enough to prevent moisture from rotting the wood.

The most likely causes of a deck leaning to one side are damaged deck posts, soil erosion, and inadequate deck footings. If you’re not sure about the exact cause, the best option is to call a contractor who can build a deck to inspect the damage and recommend the best way forward.

DIY staining or painting is manageable with proper preparation, including safety measures, necessary tools, and adherence to safe weather conditions for application.

It is recommended to clean your deck once or twice a year to prevent the accumulation of dirt, debris, mold, and mildew. The ideal times for cleaning are in the spring and fall. A spring cleaning removes grime that has built up over the winter, preparing your deck for summer use. A fall cleaning washes away messes from summer activities, preventing them from setting into the wood over the winter. The exact frequency can depend on factors such as how often the deck is used, its exposure to pollen, and whether salt was used on it during the winter. Regular cleaning helps protect the wood and its finish from damage.
