We'll contact you to discuss the scope, boards and railings. Existing framing needs an on-site assessment before reuse is confirmed.

What goes into a deck replacement?

Removal and disposal

The existing deck size, materials and access affect dismantling and disposal. Let us know about narrow side yards or landscaping you want protected so access and staging can be discussed.

Keeping or changing the footprint

You can ask about rebuilding in the same footprint or changing the deck shape and stair location. A larger deck or moved staircase changes the structure and how the deck connects to the yard. Site constraints must be reviewed before the layout is confirmed.

Moving from wood to composite

Replacing wood decking with composite involves more than picking a color. The framing, support spacing and fastening details must suit the chosen boards. Stairs and railings are reviewed alongside the surface.

What an on-site assessment establishes

The team needs to inspect the existing structure and house connection to determine the scope. Visible wear alone does not establish which structural parts are suitable to retain.

A homeowner on their deck replacement

“We had our old deck replaced in Wayne and the crew did a good job cleaning up afterward. The crew was considerate while working around the house. The new deck has a clean look and gives the backyard a nice update. I’d recommend them to anyone looking to replace a deck.”

Deck replacement questions

Can I keep the same deck footprint?

That can be discussed as part of the estimate. The structure, house connection and site constraints need to be assessed before a same-footprint rebuild is confirmed.

Can I move the stairs when replacing my deck?

Ask about the route you want to the lawn. Moving or widening stairs changes the layout, supports and railing requirements and needs to be reviewed on site.

Can an old wood deck be replaced with composite?

Composite can be considered for the replacement. The chosen board system must be compatible with the framing and fastening plan; reuse of existing structural parts requires an assessment.

Does the estimate include removing the old deck?

Removal, disposal and site access are part of the scope discussion. Confirm what is included in your project estimate before approving the work.

Could my deck be resurfaced instead?

If you like the footprint and the framing is suitable to reuse, replacing the surface may be an option. The team must assess the framing, stairs and railing connections on site.
