"Extra work was performed with extra expense & not discussed with me. We eventually settled but the roof leaked in 2 separate places. They said they would fix and it was "under warranty ". At least four requests were made to "fix it". They never showed up. I had to pay $2,600 to repair their insufficient workmanship. I would never allow anyone I know to use them."

"Getting in touch with this guy is practically impossible.  You can leave message after message and they never contact you back.  I've talked with several other people who have used them in the past and they all have the same comment.  If you are indeed lucky enough to get scheduled with them, Daniel works hard when he's on site.  He underestimated how much time would be required to complete all the quoted work and he asked to come back the next day to finish cleaning the gutters.  We agreed to it.  The next day someone showed up and cleaned the gutters on our home.  What we didn't realize, because we were gone for a few hours, is that they never cleaned the gutters on our detached garage.  Because of the height of the gutters on the garage, there's no real way to inspect the work.  In the weeks following we had intense rain and it wasn't until this time that I realized that the gutters were still backed up.Multiple (and I mean MULTIPLE) calls to the phone number for this company have gone unanswered.  At this point all I want is for them to finish what they started.  The owner of the company stood there in my driveway and spend a good 10-15 minutes telling me how proud he was that he ran a good company where he treated everyone well and fairly.  I'm sorry, but at this point I feel all that was nothing more than just theatrics.   "

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Liquid rubber is great for waterproofing, but it can damage your deck if it’s not applied correctly. First, it can trap moisture in the wood if the deck isn’t completely dry before application.  Second, applying it too thickly can create a heavy, rubbery surface layer that peels and cracks under fluctuating temperatures. For the best results, ensure the wood is completely dry before application, and apply the liquid rubber in thin, even coats. A quick inspection every now and then will help you catch any issues early, keeping your deck protected and looking its best.

In most cases, sanding an old deck before staining it is necessary to achieve a decent finish. If your old deck has a relatively new stain finish on it and you're only doing touch-ups, you can generally skip the sanding part. However, if your goal is to make the deck look and function better, sanding first is a must. 

There are more pros than cons when staining a deck. Deck stain is more affordable than paint, it protects the wood and allows the natural textures to shine through, and it can revive the appearance of your home. However, deck stain also requires prep work (sometimes days or more), carries more upkeep than a painted deck, and can fade over time if not cared for. 

For the best results, stay off of your deck for at least 48 hours after sealing it. Giving the sealant at least two full days to cure ensures it can fully penetrate the wood, giving you the most protection from sun and weather damage later on. Walking on the deck too soon can prevent it from properly curing and cause your deck to weather prematurely.

Rot loves moisture, so deck rot typically impacts the parts of a board that stay wet. This includes the underside of boards, in addition to support posts and joists. However, any part of a board can rot, given the right conditions.
