"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

While you can use various materials like sand or even just soil, gravel is widely considered the best option to put under a deck. It provides excellent drainage and is resistant to water, fire, and pests. Gravel also helps anchor the soil to prevent erosion during heavy rain and acts as a built-in weed blocker, reducing regular upkeep. Furthermore, it is simple to spread, available in various textures and tones, and adds a polished look that complements any deck design.

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.

Building a deck is often worth the investment, not only because it provides more utility to your yard and gives you more space to entertain but also because decks tend to add value to your home. Keep in mind that second-story decks often require concrete footings, which means they will bump up your property taxes, while decks built on the first story generally don’t require a permanent foundation and won’t affect your taxes. Even with the tax increase, decks are usually a good investment in the long run.

In the majority of cases, you don’t need regulatory permission or permits to remove decking components and materials. However, the exception is if you live in or near a wildlife conservation area, which could require permits and consent prior to beginning the demolition. Check with a local regulatory agency for more information.

That depends on the condition of your deck. An older deck that looks drab, worn, or has multiple damaged boards might be worth replacing before selling. However, if your deck is in good condition, you can simply clean, repaint, or stain it.
