"I am having a truly unpleasant experience with 7th State Builders. I paid 14,450.00$ deposit in good faith. They were contracted to rebuild my deck, place a roof structure and screen on the deck. I trusted that they would complete the work. Instead, they took my money and one year later had not even started on the project. Not only did they fail to perform the agreed-upon services for the deck, but I was forced to hire an attorney to try and recover my deposit. Which I haven?t yet (over one year). Thus, creating unnecessary expenses to an already frustrating situation. I would strongly advise against using this company. They are unprofessional, uncommunicative, unreliable and clearly not trustworthy. My experience currently has been a complete waste of time, money and emotional energy. Dr. CLARICE BROWN "

"I can't say enough positive things about my experience with Phoenix. If you're looking for a quality fence at a reasonable price look no further. Jeff and Karen were incredible to work with. We had 5 different companies come out for quotes and Jeff's thorough, no-nonsense explanation of fence types and prices made it an easy choice. When we decided to switch a portion of the fence from picket to picket w/ cap-board, I called Karen expecting the quote to be more expensive but she and Jeff said they could do it for the same price. Despite being told it was a two week wait, I got a call from Karen that they could install it the same week. Both Jeff and Karen are extremely professional and their communication made the project a stress-free, enjoyable experience. The workers, who were all brothers, were incredible. I was shocked by the speed with which they tore down the old chainlink fence, which was installed 60 years ago and had literally grown through the trunk of two trees. They methodically installed the new 218 square foot fence in one day, making sure everything was done properly. When the job was done, one worker insisted on grabbing a tool and coming back an hour later to remove a very stubborn old fence post. This level of detail and craftsmanship is hard to find nowadays. The fence has transformed our backyard and we couldn't be more happy!"

"I used this company for a number of years and the overall service is no longer the same. I had them over to clean my gutters and I witnessed ladders slamming against the side of my house and they tore one of the edges from the corner of my roof with their step ladder. I will not use them going forward."

"Our experience with Shiner was disappointing. We arranged for them to replace our roof and siding. The roof work went well. The siding work had major problems: -Shiner didn’t order enough siding, so the team left about 15% of our house with no siding in winter (see photo). It took them over two months to come back and complete the job. -One of the Shiner Construction workers put a nail through our HVAC line, leading to all of the Freon (roughly $4000) escaping; Shiner initially agreed to only credit us for the non-recommended cheapest repair option for our HVAC system; then the foreman called to say that his boss (the owner) thought the repair was too expensive and tried to credit us for less money than was required to even repair our system (all while we still had no heat for a week in winter). The repairs were also entirely our responsibility to arrange; no help from Shiner. -The construction team didn’t show up on five separate days that we were told by management that they would show up; no explanation was ever given. -The construction team didn’t clean up the yard, as we found nails in our yard for more than a week after they completed the first 85% of the siding; and then repeatedly didn’t show up when we asked them to clean the yard. We eventually had to buy an industrial magnet on Amazon and look for the nails ourselves."

"The whole project went very well! We love our space. We really got both value and quality with Steve. Even after the project, they were very responsive. Steve also gave us great suggestions to our original design and we are extremely happy. I love the white exposed wood with beams on deck. We originally wanted a ceiling and he convinced us to leave it exposed whereby saving money. I’m writing this review after two years!! So that should say enough! (Pictures attached)"

"Sure Shot Pressure Washing is my 'go to' pressure washing company. Andre and team are very efficient and professional. The process to schedule an appointment, obtain an estimate and have the job completed is easy and always done quickly. The office staff is great, and Andre is just so nice and pleasant. Andre always goes above and beyond, and my home just sparkles! I have also recommended Andre to my neighbors, and they have raved about his work as well. You can't go wrong with Sure Shot Pressure Washing!!!"

FAQs for deck, fence, patio or porch clean and seal projects in Dowell, MD

You should clean your deck before sealing it. Cleaning before refinishing is critical. If you don’t remove dirt and debris, you'll trap moisture in the wood, which prevents the new sealer from working correctly and can lead to costly repairs. Whether you need to sand, power wash, or sandblast depends on your deck's condition.

Sealing and staining your deck are essential maintenance methods that protect and beautify your outdoor space. Stain adds rich color and guards against fading, while sealant fortifies the wood against moisture and weather damage. Wood type, climate, deck age, and the degree of existing damage determine whether your deck benefits from one or both treatments. Using both options extends your deck’s durability and enhances its overall appearance.

Power washing and sealing your deck costs $500 to $1,700. This process combines the removal of stubborn dirt and debris with a protective seal that preserves the wood’s integrity. Effective cleaning eliminates harmful buildup, and a proper seal prevents moisture damage and wood decay, ensuring long-term durability and reducing future repair expenses.

Your deck must be sealed every one to three years to maintain its strength and appearance. Regular sealing is essential to protect the wood against moisture, mold, and harmful UV rays. A consistent sealing schedule prevents rapid deterioration and costly repairs. Inspections should be performed annually to determine if the protective layer remains intact, extending the life of your deck.

Leaving your deck untreated compromises its structural integrity and safety. An unprotected deck rots quickly due to moisture and environmental exposure, which means that neglecting sealing results in rapid decay and expensive replacement costs of $4,125 to $11,650. Sealing your deck is essential for maintaining its durability and protecting your home.

The sealant on your deck dries within a few hours and reaches full cure within 72 hours before regular use. It is essential to wait until the complete curing period to ensure the protective layer fully sets and resists weather and foot traffic. Proper drying guarantees that your deck is fully protected against moisture and environmental damage, ensuring lasting quality.
