Board, railing and structural repairs. Final price is set in your free written quote.
Cost scales with how many boards, railings, or fasteners need attention – a few loose boards is a small job, while a full railing rebuild or widespread fastener replacement takes considerably more time.
We start with the railings, since a loose railing is the part of a deck most likely to cause an injury. Then we check the framing and fasteners underneath, where snow load and freeze-thaw do most of the damage. Rotted or damaged boards are replaced one by one, matched in size and, where possible, in material.
A soft or bouncy board, a wobbly railing, rusted or loosened fasteners after winter, or simply not having had a spring check-over are all reasons to get a deck looked at.
An Ottawa deck carries months of snow load every winter on top of the freeze-thaw cycling that works fasteners loose – it's a big part of why boards and railings that felt solid last fall can wobble by spring.
A wobbly railing isn't just annoying – it's the part of the deck most likely to actually cause an injury, so we treat railing repairs as a priority, not an afterthought.
Rot and damage are almost always isolated to a few boards near ground contact or under a planter, not the whole structure – we replace what's actually gone.
Every job gets a quote in writing before we start – no verbal estimates that change later.

Yes – that's one of our most common deck calls, and usually a same-visit fix.
Yes – we match the board size and, where possible, the material so the repair blends in rather than looking patched.
It's a reasonable habit in this climate – a quick check after a winter of snow load can catch a loosening fastener or board before it becomes a bigger repair.
