Deck Board Repair Salem Lakes, WI

Deck repair for Salem Lakes homes

Most of our deck repair calls in Salem Lakes come from homes with a village formed from Salem and Silver Lake, with lake homes and rural acreage. In practice that means waterfront decks with all-day sun.

Salem Lakes sits on Camp Lake, Center Lake and Hooker Lake, and waterfront wood weathers faster on the water-facing side than the house side. We check both and often give the exposed side a second coat.

This is board-level repair, not structural rebuilding. If we find rot in the joists, beams or ledger, we will show you and tell you it is a job for a deck builder. For everything above the framing, we have you covered.

How the job goes in Salem Lakes

1. InspectWe probe the boards, check fasteners, stairs and railing posts, and mark what needs replacing.
2. Replace boardsDamaged boards are removed and replaced with matching cedar or pressure-treated lumber, screwed into the joists.
3. Re-fastenPopped nails are pulled and replaced with deck screws. Loose spindles and rail caps get tightened or re-secured.
4. BlendNew boards are lightly sanded and, if we are staining, cleaned with the rest so the stain takes evenly.
