New deck replacement and rebuild construction in San Leandro, CA

When It's Time for a New Deck

Sometimes trying to repair an old deck is like putting a bandaid on a broken arm. It might look okay temporarily, but the underlying problems remain. If your deck has widespread rot, structural issues, or it's just plain worn out after years of use, replacement makes more sense than throwing money at repairs that won't last.

A deck replacement also gives you the chance to improve on what you had before. Maybe your old deck was too small for your needs now. Maybe you want to switch from wood to composite materials. Or perhaps building codes have changed since your deck was built, and bringing it up to current standards would cost almost as much as starting fresh. Our San Leandro deck replacement team helps you make these decisions based on your budget and goals.

How Deck Replacement Works

We make deck replacement straightforward and stress-free. Here's what happens:

  • Initial Consultation: We visit your home to assess your current deck and discuss what you want in a replacement.
  • Design and Planning: We create a plan that improves on your old deck while working within your budget.
  • Permits and Approvals: We handle all the paperwork with the city so you don't have to worry about it.
  • Demolition: We carefully remove your old deck and haul away all the debris.
  • New Construction: We build your new deck using modern materials and techniques that will last.
  • Final Inspection: The city inspects the work to ensure everything meets current building codes.

Upgrade Your New Deck

Since you're starting from scratch anyway, this is the perfect time to add features that make your deck more useful and enjoyable. We can expand the size to create more entertaining space. We can add multiple levels to work with your yard's slope. Built-in benches, planters, and storage boxes can be incorporated right into the design.

Many homeowners choose to upgrade to composite decking during replacement to eliminate future maintenance. Others add pergolas or covered areas for shade. Our modern railing systems can give your new deck a contemporary look, while proper lighting makes it usable in the evenings. We also offer professional finishing services if you choose natural wood for your new deck.

Deck Rebuilds for San Leandro Homes

Building codes in San Leandro have gotten stricter over the years, especially regarding structural connections and railing heights. Many older decks don't meet current standards. When we rebuild your deck, we bring everything up to code so you know it's safe and properly constructed.

We also understand San Leandro's soil conditions and weather patterns. We know how deep footings need to go, which wood treatments work best in our climate, and how to design drainage that prevents water problems. These local details make a big difference in how long your new deck lasts and how well it performs.
