"I highly recommend Steve and his crew at Crest Mark. Steve is very knowledgeable and easy to talk to. He also explains things in a straightforward and easy to understand manner. He also communicates well, letting you know of arrival times, anticipated costs, updates and project completion. Of the estimates I received, his was in the middle, but I did not have to worry about it being too low, and lots of "extras" being added in to the final price, or so high that I would have attempted to do it myself and caused further damage or injured myself. I requested a quote to rehang/repair siding on the second floor of the house after high winds knocked it down. Steve came out, inspected the siding (to see if it needed replaced or could be re-used; and fortunately it could) and checked other areas around the house that are typically damaged by high winds. He also explained how the process would work if more extensive and/or expensive repairs were needed and we wanted to file with our homeowners insurance. After accepting his estimate, we planned for later in the week, or possibly the next (depending on his other jobs, but also heavily depending on weather) to complete the work. We were very fortunate and caught a break with mild temperatures and no precipitation, with him calling me the next day to let me know that if someone would be there to bring the siding outside, we could get it done that day. Steve and his crew came out immediately and completed the job, using the existing siding, and fastening it more securely than it had been previously fastened. When the time arrives that we need more repairs or choose to replace/upgrade, I will definitely give Crest Mark a call."

"This is the second time I have used Protect and Preserve. As usual, Paul went above and beyond to help with all aspects of painting including suggestions of where and what to paint. Color selection, matching to carpet and furniture, suggested tape repairs, etc. I have recommended this company to several friends as well and will definitely use them again in the future!"

"Marcos from Lara painting was recommended from a few former neighbors and I have used his company multiple times. He is very responsive, punctual, works efficiently, and cares very much about the quality of his work and ensuring his customers are happy. For my most recent jobs, he painted the ceiling under my deck and stained the wood under the stairs of my composite deck. The stain color he selected was a perfect match and I couldn't be happier. He also painted a chalkboard accent wall in my daughter's room. I would highly recommend Lara painting and will use them for my future painting needs."

"I hired Wood Renovation to power wash and stain my deck as well as replace some rotted boards. They did a good job replacing the boards, but they also missed a rotted board, which was not replaced. They did a good job power washing and staining the floor of the deck, but they only used one coat of solid stain on the floor, which was not enough. The Sherwin Williams stain they used even says to use two coats. The ornamental caps that sit on top of the balusters were covered with old, chipping paint, and they did not sand them prior to staining. The owner, Steve, indicated that he normally doesn't include sanding in a bid, but he did come out and try to sand off some of the chipping paint. They also used a paint sprayer for the deck railings, which did not completely cover any of the railings and instead got on my landscaping. I had to have Steve come back out two different times to touch up every railing. Fortunately, he was very nice and accommodating about it. Overall, the quality of the work was not worth $996."

"
  • Removed approximately 100 linear feet of sod in various widths
  • Dug down approximately 8" the entire length
  • Went to the quarry and hand selected the size and shape of individual, natural brownstones that would be the steps
  • Marked the placement of the stones for ease of walking
  • Laid each stone to conform to the flow of the path
  • Filled the area around the brownstones with natural looking, smooth gravel.
  The end result was a very natural looking path that flowed between the two homes and blends into the existing landscape.  It looks like it has always been there.
We are extremely satisfied. In addition to the quality of the work of this company, another reason we selected them is that the owner is always on the job and he runs background checks on all employees.  He also will not hire someone that is  in our country illegally.
We have since contracted with My Personal Gardener for our landscape maintenance.

"This was the second time I've hired Joel Thomas as an exterior painter, and I would definitely recommend him to my friends and family. Mr. Thomas returned my call within a day and gave me a lower estimate than I expected by the next day (same price as five years ago). He painted samples on two areas of my house so I could decide what I liked best, and he bought the paint brand and texture I chose. He returned my calls promtly and he and his helper, Robert, were always courteous, flexible, and professional. They did neat and careful work without drips on the brick or damage to my landscaping. Mr. Thomas sprayed the house and also resprayed and hand painted rougher areas in the cedar so that the coverage was uniform and thorough. He did this without my asking him. The spray washing was completed within a week and the actual painting by the next week, over a few days' time despite dangerously high temperatures. A few grace notes, I was worried about my dog getting loose; but every day the latch had been securely shut on the back gate. The painters also moved the outside furniture back onto the porches when they were done, even though I had moved it off myself before the job started."

FAQs for deck or porch repair projects in Elwood, IN

Composite and ipe hardwood decks provide the longest durability for your outdoor space. Composite decks last 30 years exactly, and ipe hardwood decks continue reliably for 75 years when maintained properly. Frequent cleaning and sealing preserve these materials and protect them against weathering. This exceptional endurance minimizes future repair needs and offers a solid, lasting investment.

Replacing your deck directly increases your home’s market value and enhances its curb appeal. A new deck returns between 50% and 65% of its cost in additional home value at resale. This upgrade not only modernizes your outdoor living space but also significantly bolsters buyer interest, ensuring that your investment adds both functionality and an attractive aesthetic.

You should replace your deck when visible signs of wear begin to compromise safety and functionality. The quality of maintenance and the durability of the chosen materials determine when a deck reaches the end of its life. For example, decks crafted from superior materials like mahogany or ipe hardwood can last over 50 years, while cedar decks require replacement after 15 to 20 years. Regular inspections help guide this decision.

Your deck needs to be replaced when clear structural issues compromise its safety. Indicators include soft spots, sunken boards, scattered wood shavings, and hollow sounds that indicate rot or pest damage. These symptoms show that simple repairs are insufficient to maintain a secure deck. A professional evaluation is essential to confirm whether full replacement is necessary to protect your outdoor living area.
