What We Cover

Our Seattle
Deck Replacement Services

Every deck replacement 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

Tear-Out & Disposal

Deck tear out and replace Seattle starts with safe demolition. We disconnect electrical, remove decking, joists, and ledgers, then haul to certified disposal sites. Cost: $800–$2,500 depending on deck size and access.

02

Footing Reset

Old footings rarely meet current code. We pour new concrete piers 30 inches (76 cm) deep, or install helical piles on saturated soil. Each footing is engineered for the new deck load.

03

New Pressure-Treated Framing

Fresh ground-contact pressure-treated lumber with joist tape on every member. Simpson Strong-Tie DTT2Z connectors anchor the ledger to the house rim. Code-compliant joist spacing for the new decking material.

04

Material Upgrade Options

Replace old cedar with Trex composite, TimberTech AZEK PVC, or IPE hardwood. Our deck rebuild Seattle quote prices 2-3 material options side-by-side so the choice is clear.

05

Modern Railings

Replace dated wood railings with Cable Railing, Glass Balustrades, or composite balusters. All upgrades meet WA state 36-inch residential and 42-inch elevated code height.

06

Permit & Final Inspection

We file SDCI permits for full replacements (always required when ledger is reset). Final inspection scheduled within 5-7 days of completion. SDCI sign-off documents your deck rebuild Seattle complies with 2024 IRC code.

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 replacement 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

Specific answer for your deck? Call (888) 401-2283
02 When does deck rebuild Seattle make more sense than repair?

Rebuild beats repair when 3 conditions exist: deck is 15+ years old, structural rot affects 40%+ of joists, OR repair cost exceeds 60% of full replacement. We price both options side-by-side so the math is clear.

Specific answer for your deck? Call (888) 401-2283
03 How long does deck tear out and replace Seattle take?

Tear-out takes 1-2 days. New construction adds 6-14 days depending on size and material. SDCI permit review adds 2-4 weeks. Total project window: 4-7 weeks from signed quote to final inspection.

Specific answer for your deck? Call (888) 401-2283
04 Can I replace a deck without removing my old footings?

Sometimes. If existing footings are 30 inches deep, on stable soil, and pass structural inspection, we reuse them. About 30% of Seattle decks 10+ years old have undersized or shallow original footings that need replacement.

Specific answer for your deck? Call (888) 401-2283
05 Do I need permits for deck replacement Seattle?

Yes, full replacement always requires an SDCI permit because the ledger reattaches. Permit fees run $385–$685 depending on deck value. We handle the entire submission in-house.

Specific answer for your deck? Call (888) 401-2283
06 What deck replacement features add the most resale value?

3 upgrades add the most resale value in 2025: Trex or TimberTech composite (low maintenance), Cable Railing (modern aesthetic), and LED deck lighting (extends use to evenings). Average ROI: 65-75% on replacement spend.

Specific answer for your deck? Call (888) 401-2283
