Common Problems We Solve: Keeping Your Deck or Dock in Top Shape
Florida’s weather can take a toll on your outdoor spaces, and the signs of wear and tear often show up faster than you’d expect. Our dock builders specialize in addressing the common issues that threaten the safety, functionality, and appearance of your deck or dock.
Here’s how we tackle the most frequent challenges:
- Weather damage and wear: Sun, rain, and fluctuating water levels can wreak havoc on wood docks and deck boards. We can replace your existing surface with quality materials built to withstand Florida’s toughest conditions.
- Signs of rot: Rot weakens your structure and compromises safety. We replace damaged sections with durable options like pressure-treated wood or composite decking for long-lasting protection.
- Loose or unstable structures: Wobbly railings, creaky boards, or unstable platforms? We stabilize and reinforce your dock or deck to ensure it’s safe and secure.
- Outdated materials: Older deck boards or dock roofs might no longer hold up to modern standards. If this is the case with your dock, we can upgrade it with high-performance materials like composite deck boards to combine style with strength.
- Aesthetic problems: Warped boards and faded finishes can ruin the look of your outdoor space. We refresh your boat dock or deck project with sleek, modern designs and high-quality finishes.
