"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."

"The crew was on time each day. They were professional and easy to work with. They patched and painted the deck and ceiling of my garage to stop the leaking into my workshop.The job came out real good. They had to move the furniture off my deck and some woodworking equipment from my workshop all went well. The real test for this repair will be when it rains later this week and there is no more leak. I would recommend A + for your future projects."

"Wow!!! It's been a long time since we have had someone the caliber of Nate come to do work on our home. He returned our phone call almost immediately...arrived exactly on time...got to work immediately...was thoughtful, professional and kept us in the loop the entire time. And the end result? PERFECT deck steps!!!! He was faced with a problem, quickly analyzed the situation and resolved it and now we have a beautifully fixed deck with some very sturdy amazing steps!! So grateful for Nate's work ethic and skills as a craftsman...like I said, it's been a long time since my husband and I hired a handyman that actually did what he said he was going to do and then went above and beyond to do an excellent job!!! Thank you, Nate - we highly recommend you!!!"

"My experience with RedLine Contracting has been exceptional. Gino and his team were the epitome of professionalism. Living in a rural area, I often struggle to find contractors willing to make the trip, but Gino reached out within 24 hours and we promptly arranged a quote. The main goal was to repair and stain my deck, but after meeting Gino, I felt comfortable adding several other tasks to the list. The additional projects included properly mounting lighting fixtures in the main bathroom, fixing broken tiles at the main entrance, staining the sidewalk, painting the master bedroom, installing a new lighting fixture over the kitchen island, and addressing a leaking drain from the upstairs master bathroom. Gino provided precise estimates and very reasonable costs for the extensive work I requested. He kept me informed of any changes or modifications needed, such as an extra coat of white stain for the originally brown deck. His expertise helped me make informed decisions without any pressure. One of the more complex tasks involved cutting out a section of the lower-level ceiling to repair the leaky drain and then matching the ceiling's textured finish perfectly. Gino's skill ensured the repair blended seamlessly with the original finish. Every task was completed with meticulous care and within the expected timeframe. Even when the weather delayed the deck work, Gino rearranged his schedule and worked extra hours to ensure timely completion. His accurate estimates and commitment to the schedule demonstrated RedLine Contracting's reliability. The results speak for themselves. Neighbors have complimented the exterior work, and friends and family are equally impressed with the interior improvements. Gino kept me updated daily via text message on the exterior work while I was out of town, which gave me great peace of mind. From a personal standpoint, Gino is one of the kindest and most respectful contractors I've ever met. He genuinely cares about his customers' satisfaction. I will definitely hire RedLine Contracting again and highly recommend them for any job, big or small."

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

Building a deck without a permit could lead to fines for both the homeowner and the contractor. The exact penalties will depend on your state and municipal building laws. You might also be required to remove the deck and apply for a permit before you can build another. While it might be tempting to skip the permit to save a few bucks, it’ll cost you much more if you’re caught.

For the best results, stay off of your deck for at least 48 hours after sealing it. Giving the sealant at least two full days to cure ensures it can fully penetrate the wood, giving you the most protection from sun and weather damage later on. Walking on the deck too soon can prevent it from properly curing and cause your deck to weather prematurely.

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.

In most cases, sanding an old deck before staining it is necessary to achieve a decent finish. If your old deck has a relatively new stain finish on it and you're only doing touch-ups, you can generally skip the sanding part. However, if your goal is to make the deck look and function better, sanding first is a must. 

The best way to sand a deck is by cleaning it, sanding the boards and stairs with 60- or 80-grit sandpaper, and sanding the railings and posts with 80-grit sandpaper. You should sand in the direction of the wood grain to avoid damaging the timber. When sanding your deck, use medium pressure and aim for an even sand. Pressing too hard with a sander can damage decks, as most are softwoods.
