"BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER!!! From the first phone call to the day I paid the balance in full this was one of the most pleasant companies I have ever dealt with! Dan came out to provide a quote. While he was taking measurements he provided me with a sample book of shingles to look at and help get an idea of what we might like. Once he completed the measure he sat down with us to explain the process, options, pros and cons of different products, etc. I received the quote to following day and it was amazing! It also included possible add-ons like gutters, gutter guards, etc. After reviewing the quote I e-mailed back the contract binder (this was on Tuesday). A few minutes later I received a call from Shirley in the office to explain the next step. She was knowledgeable about the process and VERY friendly! The following day I received an e-mail that Steve, the owner, would like to begin the construction the following day (way faster than anticipated!). They sent a rep to our house to pick-up and notarize the consent to proceed form in order to pull the permit. We had a permit that afternoon. On Thursday morning the crew arrived at 7:30 and begin work immediately. It took approximately 2 days to complete the roof on our 1100 sq.ft. home. On Monday, the gutters were installed. Steve personally stopped by Wednesday afternoon to check the work and collect the payment. He was very friendly and down to earth. I couldn't praise his company enough!"

"Very professional and thorough with every step of the project. My busted tile shower floor was repaired quickly and it looks like there was never any repairs done - good as new. The team arrived on time and cleaned everything up after completion. Everyone was courteous and took the time to do quality work at a fair price. Will definitely call Gift Remodeling again for our bathroom remodel later."

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

When deciding if you should use 2x6 or 2x8 deck joists, consider the size of the deck, joist spacing, and materials. Larger decks, larger-spaced joists, and weaker wood all require more support, meaning they need larger joists. For example, 2x8 redwood joists spaced 16 inches apart can only safely span up to 10 feet and 7 inches. On the other hand, 2x10 southern pine joists spaced 12 inches apart can be as big as 16 feet and 2 inches. If you aren’t sure what size joist is best for your project, speak with your deck builder.

Wood decks need to be replaced every 10 to 15 years on average. Natural wood is highly vulnerable to infiltration and damage from moisture, which can occur rapidly due to exposure to outdoor elements. You can protect your deck and maximize its lifespan by sealing it every year or two.

Most building codes list a minimum width of 36 inches and a maximum height of 7¾ inches. However, for the most comfort and spaciousness, you’ll want to aim for a width of at least 48 inches and a height of 7 inches. Again, it’s always a good idea to base your numbers off steps that you already use comfortably.

With proper installation and maintenance, a vinyl deck can last up to 30 years. Factors like regular cleaning, minimal wear and tear, proper installation, and the use of higher-grade materials can extend its durability. However, extreme weather conditions or neglecting maintenance might shorten its lifespan. Adhering to manufacturer recommendations for care and occasional inspections can significantly prolong a vinyl deck's longevity.

Most building codes require that railing spindles (also known as balusters) on decks or stairs be spaced no more than four inches apart. This safety standard is often called the '4-inch sphere rule,' which means a sphere with a 4-inch diameter should not be able to pass through the opening between balusters. This rule is in place to prevent small children and pets from slipping through the railing. For the same reason, the space between the bottom rail and the deck or floor surface should also be no more than four inches. As a general guideline, professionals often install three balusters per foot of railing. However, since specific requirements can vary by location, it is essential to check your local building codes to ensure compliance before starting your project.
