Deck restoration in Long Grove starts with knowing the housing: a historic downtown surrounded by acre lots and estate homes. We see a lot of long cedar and split-rail fences on large lots, and the work is planned around it.
In western Lake County, where Long Grove sits, the variable is shade. Sunny decks gray and dry out; shaded ones stay green. We treat each side of the same deck accordingly.
A lot of the older decks in Lake County are cedar from the 1980s and 1990s, and a lot of them are sound underneath a bad finish. Restoration is usually a fraction of the cost of replacement. We will tell you plainly when a deck is past saving, but most are not.
