Deck Renovation Process

Here's How Your Project Actually Happens

First, we come out to see what you’re working with. Not just the obvious stuff, but the structural elements that determine whether you need repairs or a complete rebuild. You’ll know exactly what needs to happen and why.

Next comes the detailed estimate. No surprises, no “we’ll figure it out as we go” pricing. You know what you’re paying before any work starts.

Then the actual renovation begins. We handle permits, material delivery, and all the coordination so you don’t have to. You get updates on progress, but you don’t have to manage the project. When we say we’ll be there Tuesday morning, we show up Tuesday morning.

Deck Repair and Upgrade Options

Everything Your Deck Renovation Includes

Structural repairs come first because nothing else matters if the foundation isn’t solid. We identify and fix issues with joists, beams, and support posts that compromise safety. Seattle’s moisture creates unique challenges that require specific solutions.

Surface work includes replacing damaged decking boards, railings, and stairs. You can upgrade materials while we’re at it – switching to composite decking or adding features like built-in seating or improved lighting.

The goal is a deck that looks great and performs reliably for years. That means proper drainage, weather-resistant materials, and construction techniques that account for Pacific Northwest conditions. Your renovation should solve problems, not create new ones.

How do I know if my deck needs renovation or just repairs?

If more than 25% of your deck boards are damaged, or if you have structural issues with joists or support posts, renovation usually makes more sense than patching. Signs that point toward renovation include multiple soft spots in the decking, railings that feel loose or wobbly, and visible sagging in any part of the deck. A professional assessment can tell you definitively, but when repair costs start approaching 60-70% of renovation costs, it’s time to rebuild properly.
Most deck renovations take 3-7 days depending on size and complexity. Weather can add time since concrete work and some finishes need dry conditions. Permit approval adds 2-3 weeks to the front end, but that happens before construction starts. The actual disruption to your daily routine is usually less than a week. Larger decks or those requiring significant structural work might take up to two weeks, but you’ll know the timeline before work begins.
Most deck renovations require permits, especially if you’re doing structural work or changing the deck’s footprint. Even replacing decking boards often needs permits in King County. The good news is that permitted work protects your investment and ensures everything meets current building codes. We handle the permit process as part of the project, so you don’t have to navigate the paperwork or deal with inspectors yourself.
Composite decking performs exceptionally well in Seattle because it doesn’t absorb moisture like wood does. If you prefer wood, cedar and pressure-treated lumber are your best options, but they require more maintenance. For structural elements, galvanized or stainless steel hardware is essential to prevent rust. Proper drainage and ventilation matter more than material choice in many cases – even the best materials fail if water sits on them constantly.
Deck repairs typically run $15-30 per square foot depending on what needs fixing. Full renovation ranges from $25-50 per square foot based on materials and complexity. The math usually favors renovation when repair costs exceed half the renovation price, especially if you’ll likely need more repairs within a few years. Factor in that renovation comes with warranties and brings your deck up to current building codes, while repairs just address immediate problems.
We provide solid warranties on both materials and workmanship, though specific terms depend on the scope of work and materials used. Structural work typically carries longer warranty periods than surface elements. The key is that we stand behind our work and will address any issues that arise from installation problems. Get warranty details in writing before work begins so you know exactly what’s covered and for how long.
