"I have had these guys work before, and they always do an excellent job-
especially since right in the middle of their work, I had all my carpet in my house replaced-
They took that in stride-
all painting was done well,
only had some issues with some of the doorknobs (wrong screws)
and a fan that was defective,
but they came in, did a wonderful job,
cleaned up after themselves
answered all my questions.
If they happened to miss some spots, I would point those out,
and they would fix them to my satisfaction-
job was completed in a timely manner-
I would not hesitate to rehire Steve and his team to do anything I needed done.
Very reliable, great workers."

"Dave and his team of subcontractors were very professional and usually on time. I thought they did a good job. But I just had a problem with my wine cooler, which they had installed, less than 2 years ago. I tried calling owner(David) and he would not return my phone call. I thought they did a good job until I needed to have Wine cooler serviced. We could not get wine cooler out from under counter. They just put in hole, the flooring under was 3/8 in lower than the tile in front of it.  I left message for owner David Smith to call me, I had a problem, he never called me back. I guess it was take the money and run.  The only way to get wine cooler out was to cut up a good fairly new( 2 years old) wine cooler. I am very disappointed. I had to purchase a new wine cooler and have a contractor do it right, this time. making the flooring even before installation. Because due to the levelers in back we could not get out from under cabinets with out ruining the wine cooler. So in the long run, they cost me over $1,000 to fix what they could have doen when they did the job for less than $25.

"The job went fine; owner was very agreeable to applying a product my husband had already purchased. His pricing is fair market value. He arrived both the days he scheduled with us and worked steady each time. He and his crew were polite, honest, and we would most likely use him again for cleaning the house. The deck should not need another treatment for some years."

"I had a down-spout on the second story of my house that needed unclogging. Since I have gutter helmets on the gutters, I needed someone to disassemble the down-spout and clean it out. No one else wanted to do the job, so I called gutter helmet people who wanted $300 just to look at the job. In the springtime, I had the team from Aquaforce clean my siding. I called them and asked if they would help me out. Sean and Leemar came over and did a fantastic job of unclogging my gutter - in about 30 minutes. They were prompt, professional, and did a quality job. I recommend them to everyone and would certainly call them again if I need help."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Building codes for deck railings can vary by location, so it's important to consult your local regulations before construction. Generally, a guardrail is required for any deck that is more than 30 inches above the ground.

For residential properties, the standard minimum height for a deck railing is 36 inches. However, some states and municipalities have stricter requirements; for example, California and Washington mandate railings that are at least 42 inches high. Therefore, a 42-inch railing is not considered too high and may be required in your area or chosen voluntarily for additional safety.

In addition to height requirements, codes also specify other safety features, such as the maximum spacing between balusters to ensure they are close enough to prevent a child from squeezing through.

Homeowners should build their floating decks at least 18 inches off the ground. Having it at this height will allow for better airflow underneath and help prevent moisture-related problems like warping or rot. That being said, local guidelines for deck heights may vary depending on where you live.

It is definitely worth sanding a deck to ensure the wood absorbs new stain. Sanding a deck removes the outer layers of aging wood, allowing the stain to penetrate. It also gives a fresh look to the entire surface as part of the deck refinishing process. Without sanding, your stain or sealant is less likely to absorb into the wood. While sanding a deck is a time-intensive project, the rewards are noticeable and long-lasting.

Cold temperatures can make your deck boards contract. If they don’t contract evenly, they can put pressure on the deck screws and cause them to pop out, making a noticeable sound. Winterizing your deck can help prevent this from happening.

Composite decking boards aren't your only options for building a deck. There are several other types of materials for decks, including wood and aluminum decking. Wood decking comes in many different wood species, offering natural beauty and classy timelessness to your yard. Aluminum is a lightweight, water-resistant, and low-maintenance material that is also non-slip.
