FAQ
Questions we hear a lot
Repair or replace the whole deck?
If the framing is sound, boards and railings can often be replaced. If it is not, we tell you plainly and explain the options.
Can you add stairs or railings to a deck?
Yes. Stairs and railings are part of what we build and repair, so they can be done in the same project.
Can you stain or paint the deck afterwards?
Yes, we can seal, stain or paint it as part of the same job.
How do I get an estimate for a deck?
Send the estimate request on this site. We reply to arrange a visit, look at the work in person, and then write up the estimate. There is no commitment to hire us.
