We called for a quote on a deck with a access ramp for my Dad who had a stroke a couple years ago.

He came out and also gave us a few ideas of adding a gate to be able to keep dogs on the porch. He was very knowledgeable and the deck turned out amazing!!!

Had the job done in 2 days and was out in less than a week to start it
We are getting ready to start. So far they have been very knowledgeable and easy to work with. They have taken time to listen to our concerns.
Response from the owner:Thank you for the positive feedback! We’re glad to hear you’ve had a great experience so far. We look forward to continuing to work with you!
I dealt with Michaela at gateway home services and she was very thorough with sending me the right people to install my new doors for my home
Ethan from Gateway Home Services has worked on my property three times now for different fixes and projects. He has done great work and has fixed items such as an old pocket door, and a fuse in the electrical box. He really knows his stuff! I can’t wait to hire them again for more projects around the house.
Response from the owner:Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re thrilled to hear that Ethan was able to assist you with your projects. He really does take pride in his work, and we’re grateful for your trust in Gateway Home Services. We look forward to working with you again on any future projects around your home!

Response from the owner:Thank you for your kind words! We’re glad you had a great experience and appreciate your support and referrals. Looking forward to working with you again!
Gateway Home Services did an excellent job! Professional, efficient, and high-quality work from start to finish. Highly recommend!
Wonderful service! Very professional and knowledgeable!!
I’ll give 5-stars based on my experience with Ethan, alone. I needed a vapor barrier installed and insulation replaced after a pipe had burst under my crawl space .
I also requested that the pipes be wrapped and insulated so that they would not freeze again . The job was not done correctly at first - and when my pipes froze again I called back to gateway. They immediately booked an appt to make it right. They had another team working on that project and admitted it was not done to their standards.

Ethan arrived to fix it and was helpful about explaining exactly what happened and how he was going to fix it. I even booked another job with Ethan after that , that also went incredibly smooth.

Despite the hiccup at first, it feels so good to find someone knowledgeable and reliable! Thank you so much, Ethan!!
Response from the owner:Thank you for your honest and thoughtful review! We truly appreciate your patience and the opportunity to make things right. While we strive to get the job done correctly the first time, we also believe in standing by our work and ensuring our customers are taken care of. We're so glad Ethan was able to provide the level of service and expertise you deserve, and we’ll be sure to pass along your kind words to him. If you ever need anything in the future, don’t hesitate to reach out. Thanks again for choosing Gateway Home Services!

In addition, you can effectively and quickly remove built-up dirt, debris, and sediment by power washing your deck, siding, concrete driveway, and other exterior areas around your home. Not only does this help maintain your home’s beauty, but it also prevents wear and tear by eliminating algae, mold, insects, weeds, and more. Over time, the buildup of these things can break down and cause damage to wood, masonry, and paint.

Some of the other benefits of power washing include:

  • Cleaning and brightening fences and playground equipment
  • Preparing an area for a staining or painting project
  • Removing stains from driveway and walkways
  • Removing plants where they shouldn’t be growing

A pressure washing service is delivered by a machine that expels a high-powered jet stream of water strong enough to remove any grit and dirt that has built up over time. While you may be tempted to rent a power washer and do it yourself, this often becomes costly and frustrating. Instead, contact Gateway Home Services. We have the equipment and materials for a high-quality power washing service in the St. Louis metro area.

We can provide a high-quality deck cleaning service. You will be amazed by how new and clean your deck, patio, or fence will look after we clean it!

Deck Staining

In addition to washing your deck and other surfaces, we offer deck staining and finishing. If you have a deck, you understand how important it is to maintain it over the years so it is protected and always looks its best. One way to do this is by staining and sealing your deck every 3 to 4 years. This helps protect the wood from moisture that can lead to the deck or fence needing to be replaced entirely. Next to power washing, deck staining is one of the best ways to improve your deck’s appearance.

However, staining and finishing a deck is harder than some homeowners think. It’s easy to damage a deck by vigorously power washing it, applying stain to rotten wood, or staining it before it is completely dry.

If your deck, fence, or other surface needs to be power washed or stained, contact Gateway Home Services immediately. We provide our clients with fast, cost-effective solutions and honest work.
