Buyers Information Tip
Sliding Screen Door Maintenance
The original sliding screen door purchased from the manufacture is made to fit the track of the sliding door. In the event the sliding screen door gets damaged we recommend to have it repaired. A sliding screen door most times is very difficult to replace particularly if the manufacture is unknown. A replacement universal sliding door never seems to function as well as the original sliding door. Recommendation, if possible always repair the original sliding screen door it's made to fit the track and will function better than a universal fits all sliding door. There is nothing more frustrating than to have a sliding screen door that falls off the track. If your purchasing a brand new house it's a good idea to obtain from the builder the make and model of the windows, doors, sliding glass doors, bi-fold doors, special light fixtures, appliances and any other items that may need replacement or repair in the future.
Sliding screen doors with a ripped screen can be fixed and it's much better to repair the original door that buy a universal fits all door.
Sliding screen doors with a ripped screen can be fixed and it's much better to repair the original door that buy a universal fits all door.

WOODEN DECK MAINTENANCE AND COMMON ISSUES
Wooden decks need a lot of maintenance to keep in good condition, listed below are some of the more common maintenance issues
(1) To really protect the wood from deterioration water sealer should be applied once a year.
(2) check the handrails , rough wood on hand rail can cause a nasty splinter
(3) check the posts that support the deck for wood deterioration and damage from termites
(4) make sure the deck is bolted to the house and not just connected to the house by nails. A deck not being secured to the house properly is a major cause of serious injury when the deck pulls away from the house and collapses
(5) steps is another area for inspection, make sure the steps are solid and strong and not weak and spongy from wood deterioration
(6) check for any lifted , twisted or damaged floor boards that could cause a trip and fall injury.
(7) deck balusters - make sure the space between the balusters is less than 4 inches, any wider and a child could stick their head between the balusters and get injured.
