My service is very wide ranged. I have many clients that just have me do virtually everything from here fall and spring clean up to taking care of there pool aan anything that might come about. Such as a roof jog or a garage they want built. Generally it is only me doing the work but from time to time I might have a helper. I tend to work time and materials but will give bids on jobs. Tends to work out to be a higher number. It's hard to forsee every possibilty in the job. I tend to bill on a weekly basis but if discussed, i will do sooner or when job is complete.

"I wrote a bad review for this company he didn’t like it but he did come back and fix at least the leak I had paid them for for $2400 then he said he would come back and re-mother the sailing and fix it if I took off the bad review. I took off the bad review and it has been five weeks or more. He never came back never saw him another job. I had him do for me. It was replaced a small mini porch step he charged me $1500 for it did it with wood that had two big knots in the wood which I thought was kind of why would you put big open hole knots into a flooring but he did it now three days ago, the hot water in my master bedroom froze. I had to hire another contractor to come in and loan behold the man never put any insulation any covering between the step in the house so down in the basement, you see daylight the pipes are right there in the basement the hot water pipe froze. I had to hire another contractor to come in and in between the slats of wood that he replaced had to put clear sealant because he left open holes to go right down into my basement never put a drop insulation just a big giant open hole and he had to insulate my pipes the new man fill the coals into the wood that he did and I had to pay somebody else to finish his job. Do not get 24./7 home repairs to do anything it’s all half assed"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Deck pier blocks are one alternative to traditional deck footings. Unlike poured concrete and buried post footings, deck blocks don’t require digging or pouring. They’re best for small or low-to-the-ground decks. Keep in mind, though, that not all areas allow the use of deck pier blocks, so consult your local building codes before choosing them for your deck.

To maintain a portico, you need to ensure that your portico roof has proper drainage. Poor drainage can lead to water seeping into the wooden structure and eventually causing rot. You’ll also want to regularly clean your portico columns, removing dirt or scuff marks using a clean, wet cloth.

It is possible to repair wet, rotted wood, but it depends on the extent of the damage. If the wood is severely decayed, it may be necessary to replace the affected sections entirely. However, if the rot is relatively minor, you can attempt to repair it. Start by removing any wet or decayed wood, allowing the area to dry thoroughly. Then, you can apply a wood hardener or consolidant to strengthen the remaining wood fibers. Finally, use epoxy wood fillers to fill in the damaged areas, shaping and sanding them to match the original wood surface.

If you DIY the project, it costs between $100 and $500 to fix a leaking porch roof because you'll only pay for materials like replacement shingles, flashing, nails, and sealant. If you hire a professional roofer to fix your leaky porch roof, you'll also pay for labor, which runs between $45 and $75 per hour. This will likely bring your total price range to between $300 and $800, depending on the severity of the damage.

Will pressure-treated wood rot? This wood could eventually suffer from rot, although it takes longer compared to untreated wood. Even though the chemicals applied to pressure-treated wood protect it, they eventually dissipate and leave the wood vulnerable. You can delay the appearance of rot in the treated wood by reducing its direct exposure to moisture and by painting it. Using fewer screws or nails in the wood—and thereby creating fewer holes in it—also delays the chances of rot forming.
