"We had called a big name fence company to quote our fence, however before we committed I Googled "Top rated fence companies in Gwinnett County" and Better Decks and Fences was #1 in the ratings. After reading the reviews we called for a quote. Mike came out and beat our original quote, plus we felt very comfortable with Mike and trusted what he told us. Our fence was installed on Tuesday and is absolutely beautiful. We built the fence with cedar and the crew worked extremely hard, even in the rain, and completed the job in 1 day. I would definitely recommend Better Decks and Fences to anyone installing a fence. Totally Happy!!!"

-Bonnie G.

"Couldn't say enough great things about this company. We had our decks done by another company and WISHED we would have used Better Decks and Fences!! They fenced our huge backyard PERFECTLY!!! Over 650 feet of fencing was done in about 3 days. First day was taking down our old fence 2nd day was posts 3rd was finishing. It looks perfect!! Not rushed, the workers were exceptionally nice, when they said they'd be at your house working they would, no trash was left in the yard... I mean our whole experience was perfect. Love this company. Highly recommended! !!"

-Bonnie Z.

"Mike Thomas runs the best fence company in the Atlanta area. They came and did a quick site survey and quoted me a price that was extremely competitive. They took care of buying materials, installing the fence and making sure everything was cleaned up before they left. I would recommend anyone to Better Decks & Fences for their fence needs."

-Nathan M.

"Our experience with Better Decks & Fences was completely positive. They were very flexible on scheduling and understood our needs. The quality of the deck & stairs we had done is definitely one of the best I have seen.We feel very safe with their sturdy craftsmanship and their professionalism was second to none.I will definitely engage with this great company as we complete other projects"

-Robbie P.

"I called Better Decks & Fences for a 3rd opinion on having a privacy fence around my yard. I was about to commit with a BIG FENCE COMPANY in the Atlanta area but something didn't feel right and prices didn't add up. So I called these guys and I was immediately put in touch with the owner Mike, who was Awesome! He came to my residence that same day within 2 hours notice. Provided me with the BEST PRICE out of all the company's, Beat my expectations on how fast it was installed 470+ Linear feet in 2 days, And it looked better than I imagined it would. Mike Communicated with me from start to finish and was able to communicate with me while i was at work and couldn't be there to draw anything out for him.Totally Transparent Process!!! A+ in my book."

-Mike Z.

"My wife and I cannot say enough nice things about Mike, his crew, and the work they did. They were professional from day one and got the job done in a most timely mannor. The price was very competitive. They gave us several references in our area to go and see some of their work. We had 650' of old fence taken down and removed on day one, posts for the new fence set on day two, and our beautiful new fence installed on day three. They were constantly cleaning up any material left over. They were on-time all of the time and ALWAYS did exactly what they said they were going to do. We would HIGHLY recommend this company for any fence need you may have."

-Chris S.

"Great experience, Mike Thomas is the man when it comes to wooden privacy fence. He tore down my old fence and put up our new fence and hauled off all our old stuff in a day and a half. Quality is very good, cleaned up the mess very well and price was very reasonable. You will not find a better fence company! So if you are in the market, I would definitely recommend Mike ThomasHappy customers in Snellville, Ga."

-Andy M.

"Mike and his crew are top notch. He came and quoted out the job lower than the others and within days his crew came out and put together a real good quality, nice looking fence. They did everything that they told me they would do and it doesn't get any better than that. Nice to get what you're actually told you're going to get these days.I'd recommend Better Decks & Fences in a heart beat. "

-Sandy M.

"My fence was completed on 8/19/15. Mike was awesome and super laid back. Very professional team. They were on time and finished the job in the time he said they would. I am VERY pleased and would recommend Better Decks & Fences to anyone that has a project coming up. I also can't forget Bonnie 🙂 she was also very professional and got started right away.

I recommend Better Decks and Fences to everyone I know and meet. If you are reviewing this statement then don't hesitate because I don't think you'll find anyone better than these guys. "

-Jermaine K.

"Mike and his crew were great! Fast and efficient. My neighbors were amazed the job was done in one day, taking down the old fence and putting up the new fence. The guys were polite and friendly and left a clean job site. The guys who picked up the old fence were also friendly and neat. Positive experience!"

-Nancy L.

"I cannot recommend Mike and his crew enough. They truly are head and shoulders above their peers when it comes to fences. Mike recently installed a fence at my wife and I's new home. He came out for the initial consultation on time, was very cordial, even gave my wife and I some ideas on how best to situate the fence on our property. His estimate was more than fair and we setup the install date. Mike was great about communicating with us about when the work would start, and where we were in the process. Once the install date arrived Mike showed up right on time, he went over the plan and walked the property with me and he and his crew jumped at it. They even finished the fence in 1 day instead of the quoted 2. I am sincerely pleased with the look of the fence, the sturdiness and overall quality of it. The craftsmanship demonstrated is very hard to find these days. The pickets are laser straight, the posts are rock solid and the gates are even and sturdy. Even when I called Mike with a concern, he showed up and fixed it with blistering speed.Thanks for an awesome job Mike. Your crew and you do exceedingly professional work. I cannot thank you enough. "

This DIY deck is a gorgeous addition toAlexi Politis backyard. Alexi blogs about DIY projects, design and entertaining at Seeking Alexi. Shecreated this simple deck to help make her backyard the perfect place for outdoor entertaining.

Alexi had no specialized skills for building a deck, but shes a fearless DIYer, and she produced this simple and sturdy deck without spending a lot of money.

Follow her step-by-step tutorial to create a similar DIY deck for your backyard.

I think this is my most DIY favorite project I have ever done, and The Home Depot definitely made it all happen! From the friendly staff, to all of their tools, and the ideas on their Pinterest page, Home Depot really does have everything you need to make a big project, like a DIY deck!

First off, this is very possible to accomplish on your own! I am not a professional carpenter or contractor, but this project is easy enough to do. (Just dont underestimate the amount of time it takes to drill 768 screws!) But if you are adventurous enough, and have a few extra hands, building your very own deck is very possible!

Why build your own deck? For me, it came down to learning some new skills and saving lots of money! It is so extremely rewarding to stand on a deck that you have created with your own two hands. The bragging rights are unparalleled! And more importantly, you can save so much money! To pay someone to build a deck my size with typical materials would cost between $6,000 and $8,000! My deck came in under $900, since all I paid for was lumber, cement, and screws. Wow, right?

Lets build a deck!

Materials

If you want to make your low-level deck as inexpensive and simple as possible, follow what I did! Which is to use 2 x 6 pressure-treated beams spaced 24 in. apart on-center. The support for these joists provided by concrete deck piers needs to be placed at least every 8 feet.

I wanted mine as low to the ground as possible, (mostly because I didnt want stairs) so I dug down the cement deck piers closest to my house several inches, and the piers away from my house didnt need to be dug at all. You should do one deck pier at a time, and be CONSTANTLY measuring the perfect distances, leveling each deck pier to each other, and being as meticulous as possible that everything is level!

Tips

To do so, measure and cut each joist one at a time, in case there are any slight differences between the distances of your cement piers.

If your deck is large like mine, you will likely need to meet two joints onto one deck pier to reach the entire length of your deck. I have to mention the Ryobi miter saw I used was amazing for these large joists. It cut everything so smoothly, and even has a laser line that appears to make it extra easy for you. I love that saw so much!

You should alsospray some grass and weed killeror lay weed barrier cloth under the entire area of your future deck. You dont want any pesky weeds coming up through your deck when its all finished!

For me, I decided to use 2 x 4 Douglas Fir wood (simple framing-wood), because it is inexpensive, but still extremely strong.

If you can get your hands on a wood planer, use it! It will make sure all your wood is the same height and also give those rough 2 x 4s a beautiful, smooth finish. Remember you only have to plane one side (the side that will be seen)!

Since this wood is not typical decking-wood, you need this extra step to keep the wood from rotting and decomposing any sooner.

Note that Douglas Fir may not be ideal for other climates, but dry climates (I live in Utah) should be just fine if you will waterproof the bottom of the wood first. You dont need to waterproof the top, because we are going to stain/seal that side! I used Thompsons Water Seal and a paint roller; just make sure to follow the instructions on the container!

This part is not rocket science, just takes a little bit of time. Some boards are a little warped, and may need two people holding it in place as you get the first few outdoor deck-screws in each board. Use in. tile spacers between your boards, and add two screws per joist. I used the Ryobi impact drivers because that wood is tough and you need something strong to put the screws in!

You may also need to use a jig saw like this Ryobi jig saw to cut around drain pipes, or fencing on the edge of your deck like I did.

Tip: Create yourself a simple template out of a see-through material so you know exactly where to place your screws, then they will line up perfectly.

This part is easy, just add 1 x 6 wood to the ends of your deck to give it a finished look.

I used pine because I couldnt find Douglas Fir in that size.

Go back through every screw and make sure they are flush withthe wood, or even indented a bit. If the screws stick out, people may trip or snag their shoes as they walk.

Then, go back over each screw and give it a little bit of sanding to fix some of the splinters that will inevitably appear, since we are working with a natural product.

Also sand off the edges of the end-caps you just added to make those corners a little smoother.

I used a weatherproofing stain/seal on mine, and Im already so happy with it! And, if you know me at all, I love the color white so much, so of course I stained my deck opaque white!

I did three thin coats to get that bright, white color.

Make sure you give plenty of time to dry between coats, and also a couple days of drying time before you place anything heavy on your deck so it has time to cure.

Tip: Use a paint edger so you dont have to tape off the side of your house (tape doesnt stick well, anyway, since its a rough surface!).

This is where all the magic happens, and all the amazing products I decorated with from The Home Depot really made this whole project come together. For more details and tips for creating a cozy and intimate space in your own backyard, see my new deck revealhere on The Home Depot Blog.

I used these Edison bulb outdoor lights, and these rattan lights to add variety, some gorgeous plants in terra cotta pots. The copper Weber grill is gorgeous, and really adds a sophisticated color to the space, as well as these matching white and copper lanterns.

And of course, the two largest staple-pieces to the whole thing is the stunning deck furniture and overhanging umbrella. The umbrella is extremely sturdy, and very functional. It allows you to change the angle, which will be amazing for those long, hot summer afternoons. And, I am thoroughly impressed with the quality of the Hampton Bay Mill Valley Collection. It is steel-reinforced, weather-proof, and its actually quite comfortable as well! I highly recommend it!

Was it worth it?

Overall, creating my own deck was an incredible experience. One that I am so happy to have accomplished, if nothing else for the amount of money that it saved me! And, I didnt have to cut any corners I ended up with a stunning deck that is now ready to enjoy for the entire summer, and it only took a couple of days of work!

Was it a little scary purchasing hundreds of dollars of lumber for a project Id never attempted before? Absolutely.

Had I ever used a miter saw before? Nope!

Did I screw more screws in a 48-hour period than my entire life combined? YES!

And it was worth every scary moment because now I have the most beautiful deck, for an amazing price, and I also learned so many new skills along the way. And I couldnt have built this DIY deck without The Home Depot. Thank you to them for giving me the courage to try something new!

A termite inspection will average about $100 and range anywhere from $50 to $280. This inspection is usually free when not tied to a home sale. Termite and home inspections are usually separate, though often bundled together. You should have one done at least every two years in low threat areas or annually in high threat areas - or if you see signs of infestation or wood damage. These are affordable (and often free) preventative measures that can help save you between $1,000 to $4,000 in fumigation costs. Fumigations are not only expensive, but they are a health hazard that drives you from your home for at least a few days. Most states require that these are done by certified pest inspectors.

We Are The NJ Termite Control Experts You Need For Your Termite Extermination Job

With over 80 years of experience providing termite treatments and inspections in New Jersey, including Bergen, Passaic, and surrounding counties, you can count on our team to get rid of termites fast.

The first step is for our termite control professional to make sure that you have a pest problem that needs termite treatment. There are many insects that appear to be termites and some even swarm in the spring as real termites do. For more information about termites, please visit our termite identification page.

Our termite inspectors in New Jersey understand termite behavior and even think like termites and are ready to provide you with a thorough inspection of your home inside and out to identify the extent of your problem. The termite control inspector will look for:

When our termite control inspector comes to your home, he will evaluate your pest problem, identify that you do have termites and then present a price estimate and service agreement, all in the same appointment. Your termite eradication appointment is promptly scheduled to solve your problem without delay. In some cases multiple technicians may come to treat your homes exterior and in other cases only one termite technician will be needed for extermination.

ChemTec Pest Control is an Authorized Operator of the Sentricon System. The Sentricon System is an eco-friendly, termite baiting system that requires no trenching, drilling or digging. Our technicians will strategically install termite bait stations around your home or business directly into the ground. Termites foraging for food are attracted to the bait in each station, which is then carried back and shared with the rest of the colony. The end result is the death to entire colony, including the queen. Along with eliminating all active termite infestations, continued use of the Sentricon System will prevent future infestations from occurring as well! Little maintenance is needed with the Sentricon System; we only have to check bait stations periodically. This helps us to determine where termites are most active to ensure proper termite treatment.

Having established its status in the sports-car hall of fame with the legendary 911, Porsche also makes some of the best SUVs to be had. The Macan is a realistic choice as a daily driver, offering the performance of a sports car with the utility of an SUV. We think it's the best compact-luxury SUV on the market, which is why we named it to our 10Best Trucks and SUVs list for 2019. Looking for more room and performance? Then check out the spicy Cayenne; it's one of our favorite mid-size crossovers and an Editors' Choice for 2019. Porsche realizes that there are some people out there (count us among them) who would rather tear around a racetrack than play a round of golf, and for those folks there are the 911 GT3 and the (bonkers) GT3 RS and the 911 GT2 RS (super bonkers). Last but certainly not least, there's the fantastic 718 Boxster convertible and the 718 Cayman coupe: They both made our 10Best Cars list for 2019 yet again.
