"He has completed a number of jobs at my home. Gutter cleaning was just one of them. He has worked on my awning and secured places where there was open access to birds. Inside he has repaired doors, lighting fixture and the bath tub. Upon completion pictures are shared of work without easy access. I have been pleased with all the improvements. He is professional, knowledgable, prompt and courteous. Will not hesitate to use his services again."

"Mr. Merideth did an excellent job in replacing our old fence. It took a while to start because we had to apply for a permit and he helped us defining the project for the application. Once the project started he finished really quick, but still being a high quality job."

"Nate was exceptional from beginning to end. When I initially called him with a list of 4 'random' items I needed to have looked at (replace fence posts; replace a railroad tie that we have by our driveway; some siding repair & ceiling issues due to a previous leak), he responded within an hour. He came by later that evening on the way home just to look over the jobs and let me know what he would be able to do (everything except the ceiling). He got back to me with an estimate with 2 days and scheduled the work for approximately 3 weeks in advance. His schedule opened up and he came within a week. Even though he had not done siding repair before, it looked incredible! The fence posts were perfect - very sturdy, and he somehow replaced the railroad tie without having to remove the shrubs right next to it. He was extremely responsible, polite & the clean-up was immaculate. I definitely will use his services in the future and refer him to anyone needing Handyman services. There is a reason he has an 'A' rating."

"The installation of our custom shelving project exceeded our expectations. Gino was professional and did an excellent job. Before starting the installation, he laid protective coverings over our wood floors and kept the work area organization zed and clean. Prior to beginning the installation, he did a mock-up on the walls to show how the shelves would look after being installed. We are extremely pleased with the results and highly recommend Redline Contracting, especially based on Gino's excellent workmanship and his customer service. Thank you Gino!"

Fencing questions, answered by experts

While power washing isn't a requirement before you stain a fence, it can make the job much easier and faster while reducing manual labor requirements. The stain will not work if the wood is full of dirt and dust, so power washing, sometimes called pressure washing, is a fast and effective way to prepare the wood for staining. Remember that you need to stain or repaint relatively soon after the wood has dried so that there isn’t time for dust and dirt to build up again. 

The most common hog wire gauge for a fence is 12.5. However, you can choose from a few gauges based on your needs. While 12.5 is a reliable gauge for penning in large, strong animals, 9 gauge is a better option of you have large animals that are easily spooked, such as horses. For smaller animals, like dogs or pigs, you can use a 16 gauge hog wire.

Wrought iron is durable, secure, and adds an elegant aesthetic to its properties.

How long a fence lasts, including a split rail fence, will depend on the material from which it’s made. The average lifespan of a wood fence is about 15 to 20 years. However, split rail fences made out of premium materials, like composite, vinyl, steel, or aluminum, can last for 25 to 30 years or more, especially if you take good care of the material and carry out necessary maintenance.

A high-quality wrought iron fence is one of the most durable options available and can last a lifetime, or even centuries, with proper care. However, wrought iron is susceptible to rust and corrosion if not maintained.

To maximize its lifespan, regular maintenance is required. This includes:

  • Cleaning the fence with soapy water every six months.

  • Scrubbing away any rust or corrosion as soon as it appears.

  • Applying a new coat of paint or refinishing the fence every few years to protect the metal from moisture and oxygen. The recommended frequency varies, with sources suggesting anywhere from every 1 to 10 years.

If significant rust develops, it's wise to hire a professional fence repair company to clean the rust and reseal the fence. The cost to refinish a fence is typically between $5 and $12 per square foot, a worthwhile investment to ensure its longevity.
