Deck Repair in Crestline, CA
Fix the Cause, Not Just the Boards

Most people searching for deck repair in Crestline have a deck that is starting to worry them. A board gives a little when you step on it. The rail moves. One corner dips. You may have swapped a few boards already. You are in the right place. We repair mountain decks at the source of the problem, and a soft spot should be looked at before snow puts weight on it.

When You Need Deck Repair

Common signs include soft or rotted boards, loose or wobbly railings, stairs that bounce, sagging sections, rusted connectors and posts that are dark or wet at the bottom.

These usually mean something is going on underneath: water getting into a joist, a failed connector or a post that has settled. A soft board is a symptom.

Snow is the big cause up here. A heavy winter can crack joists or pull down an awning over the deck. Waiting lets the damage spread, and a fix that was simple can turn into a rebuild.

Our Deck Repair Process

We look under the deck as well as on top and find what is causing the problem. If it needs an engineer, we bring in an outside engineer who knows mountain building before any work is planned.

Then we fix the cause. That can mean added joist support, new joists, new connectors, new posts or new rails. In Crestline, a snow-damaged deck got added joist support, some new joists, new connectors and new handrails, and the rest of the deck stayed in place.

Most repairs take less time than a rebuild, but it depends on what we find. We will tell you when we give you the estimate.
