"Your Service My Purpose did an outstanding job on cleaning our siding. We have a Willow Green siding on our house that had heavy oxidation to it. David came out and looked at everything. Before giving us a quote, he researched several items and came back with a reasonable quote. I had contacted two other companies for quotes. One company set up an appointment but never showed up. The other one showed up but did not address the oxidation issue, even though I told them this was main problem I wanted addressed. David and his crew did an outstanding job! They went back over several areas because they were not satisfied with the results. They removed the oxidation that had built up over the past several years. The siding looked like it was just installed. David walked me around the house so if I saw anything of concern they could address. I highly recommend David and Your Surface My Purpose."

"Wes was great and was a pleasure to work with. When I called him, he was recovering from the flu and said he'd call me back when he felt better--he called back the next day and scheduled the work for the following day! He arrived on time and we went over everything on my list and discussed prices. His prices were great so I asked him to get started. He called his electrician for the electrical work, and he and his partner took care of everything else. Everything on the list was completed that day, and he left the house cleaner than it was when he arrived. He is very conscientious, and is easy to get along with. I will continue to call him for home maintenance and for odd jobs--he really does it all!

Deck Maintenance FAQs, answered by experts

PVC decking can get slippery when wet because it’s made from plastic. However, composite and wood decking can also be slippery when wet. It’s best to wear shoes with grippy soles when walking on a wet deck, no matter the material, and to be extra cautious not to slip and fall down.

Rotting wood, loose railings, or unstable stairs may indicate a need for expertise.

Yes, Ipe is more expensive than Trex decking—both in terms of materials and installation (plus, Ipe trees are endangered). On average, Ipe decking costs $10 to $25 per square foot, while Trex decking costs $5 to $12 per square foot. Because Ipe is harder to work with, the price of installation is higher, too. For Ipe decking, you’ll pay between $20 and $45 per square foot for labor. However, with Trex decking, the labor costs range from $8 to $22 per square foot.

You can use a few different tactics to prevent your deck gate from sagging. Aside from using strong, rot-resistant woods, introducing a diagonal element—such as a tension rod or solid piece of wood to act as a brace—across the gate will offer better support. You can also use rigid joists to prevent the gate from sagging.

Covering your deck with a breathable tarp can protect it from snow, ice, and cold winter temperatures. This is a good winterizing solution if you don’t plan to use your deck at all during the colder months. However, it might be best to skip the tarp if you’ll still be walking on your deck or using it in a limited capacity.
