Services offered
Our scope covers new deck construction, full deck replacement, structural repair, railing installation, and upgrades such as composite decking and hidden fastener systems. We also perform substructure repairs and can replace footings and posts that no longer meet current code requirements.
Process
Each project follows a clear sequence: initial site visit and measurements, a written estimate that lists labor and materials, permit handling when required, on-site construction with daily progress communication, and a final walk-through. We document changes in writing to avoid surprises and maintain an accurate record for the homeowner.
Materials and build standards
We work with pressure-treated lumber, cedar, redwood, and multiple composite decking brands. Wherever possible, we recommend proven fasteners and connectors that resist corrosion in New England conditions. Joist spacing, ledger attachment, and railing strength are all installed to meet or exceed local building codes and standard industry practices.
Safety and permits
Safety is integral to our approach. Work zones are secured and kept tidy, and fall-protection measures are applied where needed. For projects that require local permits in Merrimack County or Concord city limits, we prepare and submit the necessary documentation and coordinate inspections.
Why homeowners choose us
- Straightforward written estimates with clear line items.
- Skilled carpenters and subcontractors with focused experience in exterior structures.
- Respect for property: we protect lawns, plantings and existing hardscape during work.
- Warranty coverage for workmanship and assistance with manufacturer warranties.
Common project scenarios
Typical assignments include replacing rotted ledgers, raising deck heights to match new doors, installing code-compliant guardrails, converting wood decks to low-maintenance composite, and rebuilding decks where structural framing has failed. We also handle smaller repairs such as loose boards, stair replacement, and ledger flashing replacement to prevent water intrusion.
Estimate preparation
We provide itemized estimates that separate material costs from labor. That makes it easier for homeowners to substitute products or phase work if budget adjustments are needed. When an on-site visit is not possible, we accept scaled plans or multiple photographs along with property dimensions to produce a reliable estimate.
Maintenance and seasonal care
Proper maintenance extends a deck's service life. We advise on annual inspections, re-sealing schedules for natural wood, and routine fastener checks. For composite decks, we provide cleaning guidance to remove surface stains and prevent mildew.
Single point of contact
One project manager handles scheduling, crew coordination, and communication with the homeowner. This reduces misunderstandings and ensures the project stays aligned with the agreed schedule and scope.
