Six services cover every stage of a deck's life, from a single rotted board to a full ground-up restoration.
Every deck problem we see in Eugene fits somewhere on a spectrum, from a single damaged board to a structure that needs to come apart and go back together. Below are the six services we provide, along with a short explanation of what each one actually involves and when it's the right call. If you're not sure which one applies to your deck, the comparison section further down and a quick phone call will usually sort it out.
Board replacement, rot repair, structural fixes and squeaky-step repair for decks that are damaged but not beyond saving. This is the most common call we get, and often the least expensive fix, as long as the framing underneath the damaged area is still sound.
Deck Repair Details →
A complete restoration combining structural repair, board replacement and refinishing to bring an aging deck back to life. It's the right choice when a deck has more than one problem going on at once rather than a single isolated issue.
Deck Restoration Details →
New decking installed over sound framing, or a full deck replacement when the structure itself needs to be rebuilt. Resurfacing is also the point where many homeowners switch from wood to composite decking.
Resurfacing & Replacement Details →
Membrane and under-deck drainage systems that protect framing and keep the space below a deck dry. This is especially important for raised decks in Eugene where the area underneath is used as a patio or storage space.
Waterproofing Details →
Pressure washing, sealing, staining and refinishing that protects wood from rain and UV damage year-round. Regular maintenance in this category is what prevents most repair calls in the first place.
Sealing & Staining Details →
Repair or replace loose, damaged or non-compliant railings on decks, stairs and porches. We treat railing issues as a safety priority rather than a cosmetic one.
Railing Details →These four terms get used loosely, but they describe different scopes of work. Here's how we draw the line.
One or two problem areas, such as a rotted board, a loose step or a section of splitting decking, with the rest of the deck and its framing in good shape. Repair fixes the specific issue without touching the rest of the structure.
The framing passes inspection, but the decking itself, the boards you walk on, is worn out, faded past the point of refinishing, or you want to switch materials. Resurfacing replaces the surface while keeping the frame.
Multiple issues at once: some structural damage, a tired finish, and maybe a loose railing. Restoration is a single project that addresses the framing, the surface and the finish together instead of scheduling three separate jobs.
The posts, beams or joists themselves have failed, or the deck needs to be reconfigured. Replacement rebuilds the structure from the ground up rather than working with what's there.
Start with what you're seeing. A few damaged boards with solid framing underneath usually means repair. A deck that's structurally fine but worn out on the surface usually means resurfacing. A deck with several issues at once, structural, cosmetic and safety, usually calls for a full restoration. If you're not sure, call and describe what you're looking at and we'll point you toward the right service before we ever schedule a visit.
Yes, and it's common. A resurfacing project often includes railing work and a fresh seal or stain, and a restoration typically folds in repair, waterproofing and finishing as needed. We scope each project around the deck in front of us rather than treating every service as a separate transaction.
Yes. We repair, resurface and maintain wood decks, including cedar, redwood and pressure-treated pine, as well as composite and PVC decking systems. Each material has different failure points and maintenance needs, which we account for in the inspection.
Call and describe what you're seeing, we'll help you figure out whether it's a repair, a resurfacing job, or a full restoration.
