"Can not say enough good things about this group of guys. Punctual, honest, hard working, and excellent painters. They recently completed a three day interior paint job for us. Everyday they arrived 10 minutes early and cleaned up before leaving. They covered up the area of the house they worked in each day before starting and did not get paint on anything for us. Dakota-one of the senior painters on the crew is very meticulous and did a great job cutting in all the corners and around the stairs. Axl, another painter on the crew, did great work for us painting the ceiling on the main level. Shiloh, the owner, who is a master painter would double check all the work each day to make sure everything was completed to our satisfaction. Before wrapping up the last day they vacuumed every room they worked in and wiped down dust from working on stress cracks. Just a terrific and honest contractor and from many past experiences not easy to find. Highly recommended and will surely use again in the future."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

The life expectancy of deck boards varies widely based on the material, climate, and maintenance. Untreated wood boards typically last 10 to 30 years with proper care, while pressure-treated boards can last up to 50 years. Hardwoods generally outlast softwoods. Composite boards also tend to last longer than natural wood. Environmental factors like arid or humid climates can shorten a deck's lifespan. To extend the life of wood decking, it's important to consistently clean and seal it to protect against moisture, UV light, and insects.

Decks are generally more expensive to build because they require elevating and railings. The difference between decks and patios is that decks are elevated, while patios are usually on the ground level. Plus, decks are usually made of wood and need more maintenance than most patios. However, decks and patios serve the same purpose, providing outdoor space for you to enjoy.

Building a deck without a permit could lead to fines for both the homeowner and the contractor. The exact penalties will depend on your state and municipal building laws. You might also be required to remove the deck and apply for a permit before you can build another. While it might be tempting to skip the permit to save a few bucks, it’ll cost you much more if you’re caught.

Many composite decking manufacturers, including the popular Trex brand, offer warranties that protect against warping under specific conditions. These warranties typically last between 20 and 50 years, but they usually exclude claims related to improper installation of the product. Some manufacturer warranties only cover decks built by certified professionals.

Finding a reputable deck builder should start with speaking with a local company and asking for samples of past work and references. You can review the company’s workmanship and speak with past customers to learn what the customer service was like throughout the process. It’s also a good idea to read online reviews and check the Better Business Bureau (BBB) website to see if the company has a history of customer complaints. If you can get a referral from a family member or friend, that’s another great option.
