"We used Eric and his team to give our house a complete face-lift...new kitchen, new bathrooms, wood floors, new doors, window framing, painting, can lights...I'm sure there is more that I am forgetting. They did AMAZING work! Eric and his guys are professional, the communication was great, the finishing touches elite, and the job was finished on the date he said it would be done (which is unheard of). I recommend Eric to all of my friends and I will continue to use him for projects that come up in our house. "

"Yaron Cohen, was very friendly and his expertise of work was quite evident. His proposal was fair and explicit. His workers arrived on time and worked diligently, even in 100 degree weather. The result was a beautiful deck that exceeded our expectations "

"The crew at Master Pro Painting were amazing! They walked through the project with me and explained what needed to be done. They also helped me pick the right type of paint. Very prompt and on time and they worked really hard. The work is exceptional and they even did more than I was expecting! I would hire them again and Im already thinking of other projects they can do. Amazing Work! Thanks!"

"Bathtub refinishing. Received a 5 yr warranty with service. After 3 yrs, having issue with the finish. Tried multiple times to reach Rich via phone, text and email. No response. Very disappointed that I wasn't given the courtesy of a follow up to discuss the issue. Hired BHAAS to fix the problem, who provided excellent service and pricing that was less than the original job with K&D."

FAQs for deck or porch repair projects in Lake Forest, IL

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.
