Here's Exactly What Happens Next

First, we come out and actually look at your deck. Not just the obvious problems, but the structural elements, the foundation, the connections. We’ll tell you what needs to be fixed, what can be improved, and what’s fine as-is.

Once you approve the plan, we handle permits if needed and order materials that make sense for our climate. We’re not using materials that look good in Arizona but fail in Washington rain. Everything gets planned out so you know what to expect and when.

During the work, we keep the job site clean and communicate about any changes or discoveries. Deck renovations sometimes reveal issues you can’t see from the surface, and we’ll walk you through options if that happens. When we’re finished, you get a deck that’s built right and a warranty that backs up our work.

Deck Structural Repair Lau

What's Actually Included In Your Renovation

Every deck renovation starts with a structural assessment because cosmetic fixes don’t matter if the foundation isn’t solid. We check joists, beams, footings, and connections. If there’s rot, settling, or code violations, we handle those first.

From there, we replace or repair decking boards, railings, and stairs as needed. We can upgrade to composite materials, add built-in features, or stick with traditional wood depending on what makes sense for your budget and goals. The goal is a deck that works for how you actually live.

Weather protection is huge here in the Pacific Northwest. We use proper flashing, drainage solutions, and materials that handle moisture without falling apart in a few years. You’re not just getting a deck that looks good today, you’re getting one that stays functional through multiple rainy seasons.

How long does a typical deck renovation take to complete?

Most deck renovations take 3-7 days depending on size and scope. A simple deck board replacement might be done in 2-3 days, while a complete structural renovation with new railings and stairs usually takes a full week. Weather can add time since we won’t install materials in heavy rain or when moisture levels are too high for proper adhesion. We’ll give you a realistic timeline upfront and keep you updated if anything changes during the project.
Deck repair typically addresses specific problems like replacing a few loose boards or fixing a wobbly railing. Deck renovation is more comprehensive, often involving structural assessment, multiple component replacement, and upgrades to bring everything up to current standards. If you’re dealing with multiple issues or your deck is over 15 years old, renovation usually makes more sense than piecemeal repairs. We’ll assess your situation and recommend the approach that actually solves your problems long-term.
Yes, we handle permit applications when they’re required. Most deck renovations that involve structural changes, electrical work, or significant modifications need permits. Simple board replacement typically doesn’t. We know local building codes and will tell you upfront if permits are needed for your project. The permit process usually adds 1-2 weeks to the timeline, but it ensures your renovation is done legally and safely. We include permit costs in your project estimate so there are no surprises.
For our climate, pressure-treated lumber, cedar, and composite materials all work well when installed properly. Pressure-treated is cost-effective and durable. Cedar naturally resists moisture and insects but requires more maintenance. Composite costs more upfront but needs minimal maintenance and handles moisture excellently. The key is proper installation with adequate drainage and ventilation regardless of material choice. We’ll recommend options based on your budget, maintenance preferences, and how you use your deck.
Deck renovation costs vary significantly based on size, materials, and scope of work. Basic board replacement might run $15-25 per square foot, while complete renovation with structural work can be $35-60 per square foot. Composite materials, custom features, and extensive structural repairs increase costs. We provide detailed estimates that break down labor, materials, and any additional work discovered during the project. Military and first responder discounts are available to help reduce overall costs.
We provide solid warranties on both our workmanship and materials, though specific terms depend on the scope of your project and materials used. Structural work typically carries longer warranty periods than cosmetic improvements. We stand behind our work because we’re licensed, bonded, and insured, which means you have protection if issues arise. We’ll explain warranty coverage in detail before starting your project so you know exactly what’s covered and for how long.
