Why it's laid out this way
- Boards by the sq ft and railing by the foot, the two numbers you take off the old deck
- A per-joist allowance, because nobody knows what's under the boards until they're up
- Stairs per step, so a longer run is just a bigger quantity
- The deposit tied to the board order, since composite lead times move build dates
Or build it by chat
Send Redline a photo of the old deck and say "quote Fitzgerald: resurface 14x18 in composite, 40 ft aluminum rail, 4 steps, 4 joist allowance, 35% deposit". It builds the itemized estimate with the deposit. Approve it and it's saved on her file. If she's still deciding between board lines, the quote composer in Money (Solo) lays out good, better and best side by side.
Deck decisions take a while. Set a reminder ("remind me Monday to call Fitzgerald about the deck") and it lands in your morning brief on the iPhone app. There's no online approval link, so the yes comes back the way you sent it. See quotes and estimates.
Quote the deck from the backyard.
Redline is free to start. One message and a photo, and the estimate's laid out.
