Every job below is one we do ourselves across Memphis.
We build new decks from the footings up, sized to actual span tables instead of rules of thumb. Framing, ledger flashing and decking all get handled by the same crew, start to finish.
Multi-level decks, built-in benches, angled corners, whatever the yard and the house call for. We'll draw it out and walk you through the layout before any lumber gets cut.
Soft boards, sagging joists, a post that's shifted off its footing, we fix what's actually wrong instead of just swapping the board that broke. Some repairs are an afternoon, some mean opening up the frame.
Rotted or splintered boards get pulled and replaced to match spacing and fastener pattern on the rest of the deck. We check the joists underneath while we're at it, since that's usually where the rot started.
Composite decking skips the yearly sanding and staining that pressure-treated pine calls for in Memphis humidity. We install brands like Trex and TimberTech with hidden fasteners so the board faces stay clean.
We strip old finish, sand the boards, and reseal with a stain rated for the sun and humidity Memphis gets from June through September. Skip this more than a year or two and the wood starts checking and graying for good.
Loose balusters, a top rail that flexes when you lean on it, or a full railing system that never met the 36-inch height code. We rebuild it to hold weight and pass inspection.
If the frame underneath is still solid, we can replace just the decking and railings instead of tearing the whole structure down. It's a faster job and it costs less than a full rebuild.
We frame and screen in an existing or new deck so you get the outdoor space without the mosquitoes that come with a Memphis evening. Roof tie-in and flashing get handled the same as any other addition to the house.
Some decks are past the point of patching, rotted ledger, footings that were never right to begin with. We tear it out and start over instead of building new boards on top of a bad frame.
Four steps, and no surprises in any of them.
You tell us what you want doing, we look at what is actually there, and we ask the awkward questions early.
In writing, itemised, free. If something might add cost later we flag it now rather than at the end.
Same crew throughout. We cover your floors, keep the dust down and tidy up before we leave each day.
You point out anything you are not happy with and we fix it before the invoice, not after.
