Deck Problems?
Age of Deck or Patio
Over time, wood and other materials naturally deteriorate due to sun, rain, and foot traffic. If your deck or patio is more than 15–20 years old, it may be unsafe or unsalvageable and likely needs to be replaced.
Missing or Damaged Boards or Concrete
Loose, warped, or cracked boards and pavers pose safety hazards and can lead to injury or further damage. Replacing them early protects both your home and the people who use the space.
Lack of Comfort or Usability
If your deck or patio is too hot in the summer, unusable in the rain, or poorly laid out, it limits how often you can enjoy it. Upgrading with better design, shading, and materials can turn it into a comfortable, functional outdoor living space year-round.
Water Drainage & Rot
Improper drainage around decks and patios can lead to pooling water, wood rot, mold, and damage to your home’s foundation. A properly built or upgraded outdoor structure ensures water flows away from your home and prevents long-term issues.
High Maintenance Needs
Sagging or Structural Issues
If your deck or patio requires constant staining, sealing, or board replacements, it may be time for an upgrade. Newer materials like composite decking or pavers are more durable and low-maintenance, saving you time and money in the long run.
Sagging or Structural Issues
Sagging or Structural Issues
Overwhelmed downspouts, often caused by excessive water flow or clogs, can lead to water backup and increased pressure on the attachment points. This stress can cause the downspouts to detach, disrupting proper drainage and leading to water pooling, foundation damage, and soil erosion. Upgrading or repairing your downspouts ensures effective water management and protects your home.
