"I hired Shay to do some work on my deck in my other home. It turned out so nice. I was 100% satisfied with his work. I will be calling on his service again when needed."

"Overall the workers did a fabulous job. There was so much foliage to cut back. I was concerned about the general vagueness of the contract though and tried to get the details confirmed with Mike (the supervisor) before signing. This was a difficult process, but since pictures were taken before the bid, and Mike seemed confident with what needed to be done, I thought it was a good deal. By the time all of this had been handled, a couple of weeks had passed so I called the office to confirm that the contract would still be honored before signing. Throughout this whole ordeal my attempts to set up regular maintenance service were not acknowledged. As I said the men did a great job with the overall clean-up, but there were specific items on the contract that were not done. Having paid half of the amount before the work started, I let them know that I would be happy to pay the other half when all of the work listed on the contract had been completed. A week and a half later Mike called to inspect my yard. The young man with him took care of the neglected cuttings. Mike followed me to the backyard where a short walk-way was to be made with bricks we had at home. This is when he said he had lost money on this job. When we began to discuss why the walkway was not done, he made many excuses that I corrected. He claimed the existing concrete walkways along the side of the house were not there before and that was what it referred to. He then claimed that cleaning those existing walkaways was what it meant. Next, that the people typing his notes must have misread them. Next he claimed he had forgotten that it needed to be done. Afterwards he took excessive amounts of time just staring at the ground where the path was to be laid without saying anything to me. I had the typed contract in my hand which stated the exact height and width of the path. I kept showing him the area where the contract referred and explaining why it was chosen in order to jog his memory. He began to say he sort of remembered. When I told him that I was not pleased that this was not done, he whipped his head to me seemingly shocked. More nonsense and hem-hawing occurred. Eventually I said I didn't want his workers to do the job. I turned to the house to leave, paid compliments to his workers, and as he was turning around the corner of my house, he offered to take $200 off the total for the path not being built. To end my review, I would like to add that in all the time that Mike was at my house, not once did he apologize for anything. I will never use them again and never recommend them to my friends."

"Agron evaluated our roof and how it was a poor quality job from the original construction. He offered us options including a simple fix (which due to the original construction probably wouldn't last) or to replace that section of the roof with a proper installation. We opted for the proper installation and it looks great and we feel good for that area of the roof (other areas could still be a problem as he noted, but we will deal with those areas as needed). They were also great at cleaning everything up and making sure we were satisfied with the state of the yard (after some bushes had slight damage). Overall I was very impressed and wouldn't hesitate to use them again if we need roof work."

"We recently purchased our house knowing it needed to be repainted. I began looking for painters in June and schedule 3 estimates for end of June/early July. Scott was my third estimate. I had an appointment for Monday, July 3 but no one showed up. When I called to ask, Scott offered to come out on July 4. I took this as a good sign for customer service and responsiveness. Although his was one of the higher bids, I chose Emerald Coats for several reasons: Scott's willingness to take time out of his holiday to give an estimate Very favorable reviews and status on Angie's List Scott's extensive experience and knowledge of paint and wood Expected project timeline and completion by end of August. This summer we also had our deck replaced to fix a hazardous situation caused by poor construction quality (a process that only started after 8 months waiting on a permit from the city). Due to delivery lead time required to get the decking material, we knew there would be a ~2 week break during construction. Our hope was to have the house painted during this window to make everything as efficient as possible. When I brought this up with Scott, I was told this wouldn't be a problem and, if the timing didn't work out, the two crews would be able to work around each other without incident. Scott informed me his crew had several jobs ahead of ours so there might be a delay. As August rolled around, I asked for an update on when pressure washing and painting, I consistently got an answer that it would start in the next week or so. After the third time I mentioned that we were coming up on the end of our window for painting without the construction crew at the house. Finally, his crew came out to pressure wash with the expectation of getting started early the next week (allowing time for the house to dry). The construction crew was back when they came to paint, so Scott's crew started priming on the opposite side of the house. At first this arrangement was fine, but once the crew started encroaching on the construction area, difficulties arose. First, the crews had a very hard time working in the same location. We received calls independently from both Scott and the construction company owner informing us of issues related to the other crew. My wife and I each had to intervene on separate occasions to ensure ease tensions and smooth over the relationship. Second (and this was a major reason we hoped to have painting done before the new deck was installed), overspray and paint splatter occurred several times, causing the construction crew to have to clean up and in one instance replace several already installed planks. Third, there were a couple places where siding had been removed to install decking and support. I confirmed with Scott that he or his crew could come back to paint those once they were put back on. Scott asked that the boards be primed prior to his coming back. The construction crew used the remaining primer to do what they could on the new siding but what was left did not cover all the wood. Consequently, this led to further delays as we did not understand priming and painting could not occur on the same day. Ultimately, the house was painted and the quality of work done by Scott’s crew was generally very high. We are happy with the final product. Unfortunately, an estimated one week project took nearly a month and required intervention on the part of myself or my wife at nearly every turn."

"I needed an old driveway demolished and a new one (5") poured on a sloping property. He installed drains and was able to contour the surface for optimal parking angle. The whole project took three days as Joseph had promised. So far I'm pretty happy with the project."

"THE COMPANY CAME WHEN THEY SAID THEY WOULD. THEY WORKED EFFICIENTLY. THEY PUT IN A FULL DAY OF WORK AND CLEANED UP THOROUGHLY. HE EVEN GAVE US AN ESTIMATE TO CLEAN AND RE-STAIN OUR DECK, BUT TOLD US HOW TO DO IT, BECAUSE WE WERE SHORT ON FUNDS AND COULD ONLY AFFORD FOR HIM TO PAINT THE TRIM."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

No. In most cases, it’s not colder or freezing temperatures that affect decking materials but the amount of moisture that seeps into the materials as a result. For example, wood decking material is more likely to suffer from rot or decay when exposed to excess moisture from snow or ice. An extreme change in temperature can cause wood to expand or contract, but only if it’s not properly treated beforehand.

Before installing a deck, you must build a base for the deck to rest upon, often made of compacted soil or gravel. While gravel is an optional material, it helps with drainage. Some contractors also recommend installing a weed control membrane, which helps provide a solid foundation for the frame. In the case of an elevated deck, a pro will often lay down a concrete slab as a foundation. 

The best direction for a gate to swing depends on its location and purpose, but swinging inward is the general rule. An inward swing is often considered safer, prevents the gate from opening into public spaces like a sidewalk, and may be required by local building codes.

There are exceptions and specific considerations. If your property is on a slope, an inward swing might not be possible. For a deck gate, it's safest to have it swing away from any steps. In a backyard, the direction can be a matter of preference, though an inward swing can be helpful when carrying heavy items like a wheelbarrow into a garden.

Regardless of direction, ensure the gate can open fully without hitting any objects or blocking spaces. While an inward swing is standard, a gate that can swing both in and out offers the most flexibility if your setup allows for it.

Yes, but ensuring the deck has a solid foundation with adequate footings is critical before building, as the weight of a sunroom will put significant pressure on the structure below. Even if your deck is properly constructed, it may not be able to handle the extra weight. While some basic, lightweight, prefabricated sunrooms can sit on a deck with a strong existing foundation without additional supports, in many cases, the foundation and joists will need reinforcement. It is always best to have a structural engineer perform an inspection to evaluate the deck's quality and structural integrity. A professional can help you decide if reinforcement is sufficient or if it's better to tear down the deck and start over.

Floating decks are a cost-effective and versatile option, but they come with some compromises. Since they sit on smaller footings instead of being deeply anchored, they’re more likely to shift over time, especially in areas with heavy rainfall or freeze-thaw conditions. Their low-to-the-ground design makes them more susceptible to moisture buildup and potential water damage.
