Resurface or refinish your deck for safety and for looks

Getting your deck resurfaced or even replaced isn’t just about looks - it’s also about safety. An old, worn out deck can be an eyesore and sure, it might lead to hosting fewer barbecues, but an old deck clan also be a liability (and I’m not just talking about splinters). One time, I had a refrigerator delivered and asked them to come through the back slider over the deck. The delivery man fell straight through the middle of the deck! Luckily he wasn’t hurt, but it could have been worse.

This homeowner didn’t have anyone fall through the deck, but they certainly made a great choice in redoing the deck! It looks great and it’s now ready for some BBQ or even trips out to that hot tub!

Second story decks give you views to relax to

This second story balcony style deck is looking brand new with a power wash and new stain from our crew! We fit this in for the homeowner as part of a larger project inside the home, but it’s nice to get outside, enjoy the breeze and the views, which is exactly what they will be doing on this deck now that it’s looking better than ever!

Two New Deck for One Great Weekend!

We finished these decks in Mason just in time for the weekend!

There’s still some time left in our schedule, so give us a call if you want to grill on a new deck in 2021!

A Balcony Deck For A Great View!

We had the opportunity to replace an upstairs deck just in time for Summer and you couldn’t have asked for better weather as we finished. Seeing this deck with its commanding view of their lovely yard has me dreaming about barbecues and family time!

There’s still tons of warm weather ahead of us, so if you’re on the fence about a deck, it’s time to make the call and get living!

A deck gets a new life in Hasslet

We finished a deck in Haslett, MI this week. This was a remodel of the existing deck. We replaced the original surface with Trex, a composite material that doesn’t rot, fade or need to be repainted. We also completely changed and remodeled the stairs and added all the railings you see in the photos.

The only thing left is to paint the cedar trim, which the homeowner plans to do now that the job is over.

I think they are going to love the Trex because it requires zero maintenance. How’s your deck look? Are you ready for the Summer?

Our Favorite Three Season Room

The warm weather last week had me thinking about three-season rooms. One of my favorites that we’ve made is this one! Believe it or not, this started as a deck. It was a very well built and supported deck, which allowed us to turn it into this great living space - for less cost than a true addition to the home. Better yet, it may not quite be a true three-season room as it has some heat running to it as well as the fireplace.
