"Robert performed my Master Bathroom floor repair/tile replacement approx 145 soft), replaced my back deck boards (approx 740 soft), performed ceiling/wall plaster repairs, and repaired/reset 4 sections of 8 foot fencing. Each and everyone of his crews were professional at all times and cleaned up thoroughly each day leaving the work sites clean prior to calling it a day. Workmanship was excellent. Would recommend Luper Construction to anyone"

"The projects went very well. Ripwood Customs pressure washed and stained two decks and rebuilt large planter boxes on one deck. Both decks look just beautiful! Ripwood also rescreened my porch and the workmanship for that was excellent. Ripwood showed up on time, completed the job in a timely fashion and were very good about answering any questions and explaining what they were going to do. The quality of work was excellent."

"Excellent work! At least 1/3 of my roof on the north side had a great deal of moss on it. On much of the rest of the roof there were small amounts of moss along the bottom edge of shingles, and there were patches in scattered places on the main part of the shingles. After Hector and his son cleaned the roof, it looked brand new. They removed plants and furniture from our deck before the job and replaced them after the job. They even did a light washing of the vinyl siding of the house, which was outside the agreed-upon scope of work, but they did not charge me for it. As a former member of a site safety office in a then-Fortune 50 company, I was particularly impressed with the excellent precautions they took to insure their safety on the roof during the job. Hector’s 27+ years of experience was evident in every aspect of the job. I plan to bring him back in a year for annual maintenance. I definitely recommend No More Dirty Roofs to any home owner needing roof cleaning."

"It went very well. While they were sweeping pine straw off the roof of my porch, they found a section of rotted wood, and also some nail pops and flashing issues. As my HOA takes care of all roof maintenance, I was able to put in a ticket and it is now being taken care of."

"He closed out all the creaks and holds that were in my walls. Did a wonderful job. You can not see where the damage was. Paint job was done with the idea that it should be very good and it was. I found that the 2 men he had help were very good and professional.   They cleaned up after themselves. I would have them again if I need to get more painting done. Thank you.

"I called Mr Birch Monday Oct. 18,2013, to ask about having my gutters cleaned out.  He asked for square footage of my home,gave me a price of $99 which sounded very reasonable to me knowing I have a two story home and knowing the gutters were quite full of pinestraw, limbs, and pinecones. 
We set up a date of Wed Oct 20 in the afternoon.  However,when Wed arrived it was pouring down raining so we set up again for Friday 10/25.  Time set up between  9 and 10 a.m.
Mr. Birch arrived promptly on time with another guy and began working right away.  I asked him to leave any bagged pinestraw with me so I could put the straw in my beds.  He agreed with that.
He cleaned the gutters out,he made sure that water would flow freely and would not back up,he bagged the pine straw.  He also got rid of a hornet's nest,washed down leaves, dead bugs that were stuck on the side of the house and the front and back too which I deeply appreciated. 
I will definitely be calling him to keep these gutters from being so packed next time.

Deck Maintenance FAQs, answered by experts

As with patios, there are many types of deck choices to choose from to add personalization to your home. Some common deck options include:

  • Attached decks are anchored to the home and include simple ground-level options or multi-level structures with stairways and separate landings. 

  • Detached island decks are not attached to the home; they’re a freestanding structure in the yard. 

  • Wraparound decks connect the back of the house with at least one other side and often are built with railings for safety. 

  • Multi-level decks connect your deck through varying levels of elevation, featuring landings that are attached to stairs.

Pressure-treated decks last 15 to 20 years on average, but with proper maintenance, you could get 40 to 50 years of value from yours. Reseal your deck every one to two years, and replace old or rotted wood as soon as possible to avoid structural damage. Where you live plays a role in the lifespan of your deck. Intense sunlight, rainfall, wind, and hail can reduce the deck’s lifespan.

Deck boards should be spaced no more than three-eighths of an inch apart. This is enough space to allow water and small debris to pass through without collecting on the surface, but not enough to create a tripping hazard. Certain materials, like pressure-treated wood, shrink over time, so they may need less space at installation.

A deck that isn’t attached to a house is called a floating or freestanding deck. These standalone decks are built near ground level, so they usually don’t need deck stairs. Some don’t even require permits. Generally speaking, building a floating deck is faster and more DIY-friendly than constructing one that’s connected to your home.

The best material for your deck depends on several factors, including your budget, location, aesthetic preferences, and the level of maintenance you’re willing to do. Wood decking, like redwood, ipe, cedar, and pine, lasts the longest, but it’s more expensive and requires more upkeep than composite and synthetic decking.
