"FixForte was very organized, very efficient, finished all work in the time frame. He did a little of everything, including installed 100+ bird barriers under my eaves, replaced 11 lighting fixtures and replaced 4 outlets, repaired some tiling, fixed a n entry light, plumbed a sink, installed shelving. Work was excellent! I would definitely hire him again!"

"We worked with Ali (sales manager) and Tony (project manager), who took the time to design a project that made sense for our property and our budget, made a number of suggestions and recommendations and were never pushy or tried to "sell" us on something. The crew really went above and beyond to provide top quality workmanship and overall we were in very good hands. Highly recommended!"

"It was great to work with Agron and his team. Agron came right on time for the estimate and did a thorough inspection of the roof. He gave very detailed and professional recommendations about what to do to prevent any leakage from happening. He is very knowledgeable and knows about roof and siding work from construction point of view. The quote is also very competitive compared to other companies. On the work days, the crew was very professional and courteous. They did a great job on the roof and even redid some siding work another company did not do correctly before and finished up with painting and cleaning up everything. I feel very confident my roof will be water proof before the rain season comes."

"I could not be more pleased with Joseph and the work he performed. I needed an existing patio to be replaced due to tree roots which impacted drainage towards the house foundation. After 5 bids, I decided to go with Joseph due to his competitive bid and demonstrated expertise. He and his team were stellar, solid communication, friendly, and took the time to explain to me the leveling/answering all my questions. In 3 short days the project was completed and it looks great. I would highly recommend Joseph to anyone looking for concrete work."

"Ecostar Remodeling exceeded our expectations with the outdoor deck they built. We wanted a space for entertaining, and they designed a layout that flows beautifully from the inside of the house to the backyard. The quality of the materials is excellent, and you can tell the craftsmanship is built to last. The team was organized, efficient, and respectful of our property throughout the process. Now we have a gorgeous deck where we can relax with family and friends, and it has quickly become the highlight of our home."

"It went great. The owner showed up with the crew, told us how much it would cost, and then his crew took care of the job. If we felt that the trim on the house needed another coat, the crew came back and put another coat of paint on, all a part of the original price. I can say that was service with a smile."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

The overhang, or nosing, of deck steps is another area that will be covered in building code requirements. The noses on your deck steps should have a minimum overhang of ¾ inch. For safety, usability, and code compliance, the nosing of deck steps should not extend past 1¼ inches.

Both aluminum and composite decking materials are environmentally friendly, with aluminum decking coming in as the most eco-friendly option. 

Though composite decking helps remove plastics from landfills, recycles wood, and lasts longer than traditional wood decks, it’s not recyclable and only lasts for 25 to 30 years on average. Aluminum can last well over 30 years and is almost always recyclable.

Any wood deck provides some ventilation to the area below, as is the nature of that type of deck design. However, areas that experience excessive humidity and associated moisture benefit greatly from a dedicated ventilation system in the form of strip vents. This addition helps the various wood boards contract and expand evenly throughout the years and reduces the chances of twisting, warping, and buckling.

Footings for ground-level decks need to be at least 12 inches deep, and some areas require them to be even deeper. A standard range for deck footings is anywhere from 12 to 48 inches. The minimum footing depth is determined by an area’s frost line and soil conditions. If you’re unsure how deep to install deck footings, check local building codes to find the minimum footing depth in your area. 

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.
