"Paolo came for the estimate the same day I called. I had a small, 80 sq. ft. sidewalk replacement job. He communicated well throughout the job that was delayed multiple times due to rain. His workmen arrived as scheduled, completed work professionally, and cleaned up well. The result met my expectations."

"Jamie was very friendly at the beginning. I felt his estimate was high but there was a shortage of contractors available at that time (summer of 2021) and in that area, so I went with him. Although he did some of the work himself, his health was not great, so he had a 30+ yr old guy he got from a rehab program to do most of the work, other than the tile and a custom shelf. The tile work was done by a stone mason. His sons and some of their friends, who are minors, did the custom shelf and general labor (carrying supplies and clean-up). The rehab guy ended up quitting before the projects were done. I originally hired Jamie to do the main bath in a condo and added another bath when the main was about half done. The work quality was not bad initially, but it became apparent in the details. Apparently he does a lot of bathrooms, but he does not know what I high-end bathroom looks like. There were a lot of issues I brought to his attention and some of them I had to fix myself. Jamie thought I was nit-picking. I paid him $12,000+ to refinish a bathroom, so I felt that I had the right to expect higher quality than what he provided. He had started the second bathroom before the main was finished, so I let him continue until I got tired of the sloppy workmanship and asked him not to come back. He can do a fairly good basic job if your expectations are not high."

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

In general, you need a footing at each corner of your deck, and within 8 feet of each other. So, how many you need depends on the size and shape of your deck, plus any local building codes. It also depends on factors like the load capacity of your soil and the weight of your deck. You can find a footing calculator online or contact a pro for support.

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.

Yes, you can build a pool deck yourself, but it takes precision, a lot of time, and many specific tools. You’ll need to create a deck plan, be careful with measurements, cut each piece of wood, secure the pieces properly, and ensure the deck meets building codes. Building a deck around a pool is a rewarding DIY, but it’s time- and labor-intensive, so thoughtfully consider your abilities and the time you have before embarking on this DIY.

You do not have to dig footers for a deck as long as it meets local code and holds up to weather in your area. If you live somewhere that experiences high winds and earthquakes, you may need to dig for your deck posts. Deck blocks, post anchors with base plates, and helical pile systems are the three no-dig deck post options you can choose from if local code permits.

Your deck may pop, and your neighbor’s deck may not for a number of reasons. Whether or not a deck pops will depend on how it was made, the conditions it’s exposed to, and the materials. Improper spacing is a common reason for increased pressure between deck boards. Moisture penetration is another.
