"Our 15 year old wooden fence and 2 gates needed repairs. The original fence company gave an estimate, but after 2 months, it was clear they had no interest in this small job. I put out a request for fence repair on Angie's List. Within 20 minutes Bernie answered by email. I called him, and within an hour he came to the house. His estimate was about 80% of the previous one. He said he could work us in after about 3 weeks. He and his crew arrived on time, completed the repairs beautifully, and cleaned up thoroughly. Bernie does general handyman type of construction, such as fences, decks, pavers, etc. He is pleasant and obviously dedicated to doing great work. We'll definitely call Bernie whenever we need something done around our house."

"Excellent. We spoke about price and he was responsive to immediate needs as we wanted work done before Monday am. We did not want owners or customers at risk of ice dropping down on them. He came out on a Sunday and worked well into the dark to take care of safety issues. Most pleased with his performance. He is very honest only starts the clock for charging when he is on the roof and starts steaming. No extra charges for driving or preparation time. Very honest likable contractor."

"Working with Handy Guy Services was very easy - they were very responsive and came close to the time they quoted.  I was surprised at their efficiency and desire to get the job complete before leaving at night.  It took a little longer than expected, but the two people working on it were very nice to work with.  There was a little discrepancy on moving items and wanting to charge me more, but after a discussion with Guy, this was resolved.  I will definitely use this provider in the future, and we've already discussed future projects. <br />"

"Chris' team were very thorough in removing the ice dams from the rear of our house. They use a steam-only process that protects the integrity of the roof. They completed the whole back of the house in 2 1/2 hours and even removed some of the larger chunks from the deck where they landed. <br />"

"It was a tough job, but now the whole house looks great. His paint prep was excellent; he filled every crack and crevice in the stucco, power washed all the loose paint, nearly down to the bare stucco, and --to my amazement--vacuumed the paint chips from my yard. He is the third painter I've hired in the last 15 years, and by far the best. <br />"

FAQs for deck, fence, patio or porch clean and seal projects in Fargo, ND

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.
