What We Cover

Our Seattle
Deck Repair Services

Every deck repair project includes the work below, delivered by our in-house Seattle crew. No subcontractors. No surprise add-ons. Every job covered by our 10-year workmanship warranty.

01

Rot Repair & Board Replacement

Seattle's 37-inch (94 cm) annual rainfall produces wood rot in 8-12 years on untreated decks. Our deck repair contractor Seattle crew replaces rotted boards, joists, and posts with pressure-treated lumber and PNW-grade Western Red Cedar.

02

Railing Repair & Replacement

Wobbly railings cause 2,000+ ER visits each year. We tighten, reinforce, or replace with code-compliant 36-inch residential and 42-inch elevated railings. Cable Railing and Glass Balustrades available as upgrades.

03

Joist & Framing Reinforcement

When the bones fail, the deck fails. We sister joists with Simpson Strong-Tie connectors, reset ledger boards with proper flashing, and add joist tape on every framing piece for moisture protection.

04

Stair & Step Repair

Stair failures cause more deck injuries than any other component. We rebuild stringers, treads, and risers with stainless fasteners to fix damaged deck Seattle stairs that wobble, sag, or split.

05

Deck Resurfacing

When framing is sound but the surface is shot, resurfacing saves 40-60% versus full replacement. We strip old decking and install new boards on existing joists in 2-4 days.

06

Refinishing, Staining & Sealing

PNW moisture barrier techniques protect repair work for 5-7 years. We strip, sand to 80-grit, apply marine-grade stain, and seal with low-VOC finish.

Not sure exactly what you need? Call us. We'll inspect for free.

PNW Expertise

Built for Seattle Weather.
Repaired by Seattle Experts.

Seattle decks face conditions most contractors don't understand. Our 37+ inches of annual rainfall combined with evergreen shade creates the perfect environment for wood rot. Add freeze-thaw cycles, salt air from Puget Sound, and moss-friendly surfaces, and you have a deck that's aging faster than almost anywhere else in the country.

We've worked decks in every Seattle microclimate, from shaded north-facing lots in Fremont and Ravenna, to salt-exposed waterfront homes in Magnolia and Alki, to hillside elevated decks in Queen Anne and Capitol Hill. Each has unique failure patterns. We know them.

That's why every deck repair project we deliver uses stainless or coated fasteners (not basic galvanized), proper joist flashing, and pressure-treated framing rated for ground contact, even where code doesn't require it.

  • Stainless / coated fasteners standard on every project
  • Ground-contact-rated framing exceeds Seattle code requirements
  • Joist flashing & ledger protection against PNW moisture
  • Marine-grade sealers for waterfront & salt-exposed homes
