Common Issues We Fix During Lowell Deck Repair Services

Several things can require homeowners to schedule professional deck and railing repair services. The most common repairs we perform involve wood and fasteners, but our team is fully equipped to provide a wide range of deck repairs in Lowell, MA, including:

• Board replacement: If you have deck boards that are warped or starting to curl, this could be a sign of water damage or wood rot and a good indicator that the boards are not structurally sound. Boards can also split in cracks, which is a sure sign that they need replacing. Splitting often happens due to weather changes, such as wet days oscillated by hot ones. The deck boards swell and contract, eventually splitting. If you notice nail heads popping out of the boards, this is also a sign of splitting wood.
• Railing replacement: A few indications that it's time to replace your railings are wobbly or loose railings, warped/rotten wood or loose hardware and connections. If your posts are starting to move when pressure is applied to them, that can be a sign there is a loose connection, or the wood has been damaged or softened.
• Grading and drainage repairs: Water pooling on your property can be the cause of extreme or warming weather. If pooled water gathers around the foot of your property, though, it can cause water damage and compromise its structural integrity. Many grading and draining issues are complex and require the expertise of a professional. That's where we come in! Fixing grading on an entire property requires a team of experienced and skilled technicians to excavate water around your home and other structures impacted by water pools.
• Footing installation and repairs: Concrete footings are needed for home improvement and installation projects, such as deck installation. We can provide a firm foundation for your decking by installing many types of deck footings, such as tube pier, bell pier, buried post and footing, and pier and footing. We'll also check for sewer lines, water lines, gas lines, electric lines, secondary electric or gas lines and low-voltage cables.
• Stair replacement and repair: When your stair boards start to feel soft under your feet or your boards are badly split or cracked, it's time for a stair repair or replacement. When stair boards are damaged, it also compromises the integrity of your hand railings, causing a hazard for you and your loved ones.
• Deck resurfacing: In this case, resurfacing is basically the act of maintenance, during which a service professional revitalizes the state and look of the decking system. Jobs will involve pressure washing the surface, sanding the edges, changing out hardware, and re-staining the surface.
