How do I know if my deck needs structural repair or just surface renovation?

Look for obvious warning signs like bouncy or spongy feeling when walking, visible rot in support posts or joists, loose railings that move when pressure is applied, or gaps between deck boards and the house. If you can see daylight through cracks in support beams or if any part of the deck feels unstable, structural work is likely needed. During our initial assessment, we check the foundation, support structure, and connection points to determine what level of repair or renovation is required. Surface-only renovations work when the underlying structure is sound but the decking boards, railings, or finish need updating.
Repair makes sense when the structural framework is solid but surface materials have deteriorated. This typically costs less and takes less time to complete. Full replacement becomes necessary when support posts, joists, or foundation elements have significant rot, damage, or no longer meet current building codes. Replacement also makes sense if you want to change the deck size, height, or add features that require structural modifications. We evaluate the existing structure’s condition and your goals to recommend the most cost-effective approach. Sometimes a hybrid approach works – keeping good structural elements while replacing damaged sections and all surface materials.
Most deck renovation projects take 3-7 days depending on size and scope of work. Simple surface replacement on smaller decks can be completed in 2-3 days. Larger decks or projects requiring structural repairs typically need 5-7 days. Weather delays can extend timelines since we can’t install certain materials in heavy rain. We schedule projects with buffer time built in and communicate any delays as they arise. The goal is completing quality work without rushing through important safety steps or proper material curing times.
Pressure-treated lumber remains popular for structural elements and decking boards when properly maintained. Cedar offers natural weather resistance and attractive appearance but requires regular staining. Composite decking provides low maintenance and consistent appearance but costs more upfront. For railings, aluminum or composite options resist weather better than wood. The key is proper installation with adequate drainage, ventilation, and appropriate fasteners regardless of material choice. We discuss pros and cons of each option based on your maintenance preferences, budget, and aesthetic goals during the planning phase.
Permit requirements depend on the scope of work being performed. Surface replacement like new decking boards and railings typically doesn’t require permits. Structural modifications, changes to deck size or height, and electrical additions usually do require permits. We handle permit applications when needed and ensure all work meets current building codes. King County has specific requirements for deck construction including railing height, spacing, and structural connections. Our licensing means we stay current on local building requirements and inspection processes.
We provide warranties on both materials and workmanship for deck renovation projects. Structural work typically carries longer warranty periods than surface materials. Specific warranty terms depend on materials used and scope of work performed. We stand behind our installation work and address any issues that arise from improper installation or workmanship defects. Material warranties come from manufacturers and vary by product type. During project planning, we explain warranty coverage for your specific renovation so you understand what’s protected and for how long.
