"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

It’s best to prime composite decking before painting. This promotes better paint adhesion, helps create a smooth finish, and can mean the paint job will last longer. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for application, allow ample primer drying time before painting (typically 24 to 48 hours), and thoroughly clean the deck boards to promote the best adhesion.

Both a well-constructed deck and a patio can add value to your home. Patios are generally cheaper to build but don’t offer the same aesthetics as a quality deck. Therefore, decks can be more appealing to buyers than patios, increasing a home's resale value.

Ideally, a gate should be able to swing both in and out. However, if it can only open in one direction, it is generally best for it to swing inward. This is often the safest option, especially for deck gates near steps, as you'll want the gate to swing away from the stairs. An inward swing also prevents the gate from opening into a public space, like a sidewalk, and can be more convenient when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.

There are exceptions, however. The layout of your property may require a different approach. For example, if your property is on a slope, the gate may not be able to swing inward. You should also ensure the gate can open fully without colliding with any objects or blocking access to other areas. For a backyard garden gate where public access isn't a concern, the direction it swings is largely a matter of personal preference. Finally, always check your local building codes, as they may have specific requirements for which way a gate must swing.

Your deck may look or feel fuzzy after pressure washing because the high-pressure spray tears some wood fibers as it removes the outer layer of dead and discolored wood. This fuzzy effect is a normal part of the pressure-washing process and will go away on its own in a few weeks. You can opt to spot-sand your deck if you’d like to remove it more quickly.

Applying too much sealer to a deck might seem like extra protection, but it can cause more harm than good. Wood is a porous material with a limited capacity to absorb liquids. When you go overboard with sealer, the excess can't soak in and instead forms a film on the surface. This leftover layer is prone to peeling, cracking, and trapping moisture, ultimately defeating the purpose of sealing in the first place.
