"Eric of Red White and Blue was great to work with. He was very responsive, excellent communicator and extremely customer focused. His company did some interior paint for me and then did the exterior stucco as well as stained our deck. I highly recommend Red White and Blue painting."

"Jose Davila is a talented and hardworking contractor. He's very handy and knowledgable, he is an artist and a craftsman. Jose does things the right way. He takes a lot of pride in his work. He is reliable. Jose is very concerned that you are happy, pleased, and satisfied with the work he has done. He prepped and painted every room in my house, including some carpentry work. He is very skillful in applying, replacing, and repairing drywall/Sheetrock. Jose is honest and trustworthy. He had my key did the work while I was at work. His beautiful work helped to sell my home. Jose has also done pressure washing on my wooden fence and the aluminum siding on my house. He repaired the cracks in my concrete drive way and resurfaced it. He repaired and resurfaced my concrete front porch. My neighbor saw his van in my driveway and asked about Joseâ s work. I gave him high marks and they subsequently hired Jose to work on their house. They later thanked me for recommending him because they were very pleased with his work. Besides highly recommending Jose I am also proud to call him my friend. I know Jose and his family and they are very nice people. Jose is a local contractor who lives in Hamilton."

Customers say: Quick response

"We were searching for someone to paint our aged wooden deck...it needed a complete make-over. We contacted Jonathan for a quote and he responded in a very timely manner and answered every question we had. After comparing his quote with a couple of others, we found his price to be reasonable and so we hired him to power wash, sand and paint our deck. Jonathan was punctual, extremely polite and respectful and a hard worker. He communicated with us throughout the project and did a fantastic job, taking care and pride in his work. We are very happy with the results and Shaker Flooring and Paint will be our go-to for any future home painting projects. I highly recommend this business!"

"They showed up in a timely fashion to provide me a quote.  After assessing his cost and the cost of another competitor, and pricing out renting a power washer for 4 hours, I decided to do the work myself.  I had a small enough house that I decided I could get it done and save myself some money.
If I had a bigger house or one that was significantly dirty, I would have utilized their services.

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

In most cases, there should be a small gap between the house and the deck, usually no more than ½ to ¾ of an inch. This space allows water and moisture to flow through instead of pooling against the side of your house. It also lets flashing protect your siding from runoff, which is one of the most common issues with decks.

Deck boards should be spaced no more than three-eighths of an inch apart. This is enough space to allow water and small debris to pass through without collecting on the surface, but not enough to create a tripping hazard. Certain materials, like pressure-treated wood, shrink over time, so they may need less space at installation.

Deck stairs should have at least three stringers rather than two. The recommended minimum width for stairs is 36 inches, and the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors recommends at least three cut stringers to provide sufficient support on wood decking stairs of this width. Generally, stringers should be a maximum of 16 inches apart for wood decking and 12 inches apart for more flexible composite decking.

Whether composite decking is better than wood depends on your priorities, especially regarding budget and maintenance. Composite decking offers superior longevity (30 to 50 years) and durability, and it is low-maintenance, requiring no sanding, staining, or sealing. In contrast, wood decks typically last 10 to 30 years and need refinishing every few years. While the upfront cost of composite is higher than wood, the reduced maintenance can lead to long-term savings. If a lower initial cost is the primary factor, wood is the more affordable choice.

Yes, Ipe is more expensive than Trex decking—both in terms of materials and installation (plus, Ipe trees are endangered). On average, Ipe decking costs $10 to $25 per square foot, while Trex decking costs $5 to $12 per square foot. Because Ipe is harder to work with, the price of installation is higher, too. For Ipe decking, you’ll pay between $20 and $45 per square foot for labor. However, with Trex decking, the labor costs range from $8 to $22 per square foot.
