"Very reliable and easy to work with. Our original bathroom was wearing out. We had tiles coming loose in the shower area and in general was badly in need of an update. We went down to the studs in many areas and now have a bathroom we really enjoy. part of the project involved replacing the old shallow tub with a new soaker tub which my spouse uses on a regular basis. Also we used Shannon's company to remodel my mother's home which was built in the 50's and badly needed updating. It still had the original electrical system which I felt was becoming a dangerous situation. The original plumbing had issues and the basement was an outdated mess. Along with updating the electrical and plumbing we did a complete remodel of the kitchen and basement. The kitchen change was tremendous and now even has an actual dishwasher instead of my mother. The basement was redone down to the studs and now has a bathroom and shower that you are actually happy to use. While the new floor was being installed we had them add electrical in floor heating and now the basement can be comfortably used year around."

Deck Maintenance FAQs, answered by experts

The proper and most comfortable height for a deck stair riser, also called a step, is between four and seven inches. A height of seven inches is often considered ideal for a strain-free step that minimizes the risk of trips and falls. While it is possible to have risers up to 12 inches, this height can be challenging for children, pets, or individuals with mobility issues. For optimal safety and comfort, pair a seven-inch riser with a tread depth (or run) of at least 10 to 12 inches. Always check your local building codes, as they may have specific requirements that differ from these general recommendations.

No, your deck will not rot under artificial grass as long as it is installed properly. When installed correctly, the artificial grass features a drainage system that prevents rotting. Simply laying artificial grass on top of the decking without proper installation will not lead to an effective drainage system that prevents rotting.

Rot loves moisture, so deck rot typically impacts the parts of a board that stay wet. This includes the underside of boards, in addition to support posts and joists. However, any part of a board can rot, given the right conditions. 

There are more pros than cons when staining a deck. Deck stain is more affordable than paint, it protects the wood and allows the natural textures to shine through, and it can revive the appearance of your home. However, deck stain also requires prep work (sometimes days or more), carries more upkeep than a painted deck, and can fade over time if not cared for. 

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.
