Frequently Asked Questions
My deck boards are starting to splinter and some nails are popping up. Is this a sign I need a full replacement, or can it be repaired?
Splintered boards and popped nails are common signs of wear, especially after Massachusetts winters. In many cases, AJ Home Improvements can handle this with targeted deck repair—replacing individual damaged boards, resetting fasteners, and applying a fresh sealant. However, if the substructure (joists and beams) shows rot or if the deck was built before modern code requirements, a full deck replacement might be safer and more cost-effective in the long run. We recommend an inspection to determine the best course for your Northborough home.
Construction was just finished on a room addition at my house near the Northborough Crossing shopping area. Can you add a deck that connects to the new space?
Absolutely. AJ Home Improvements frequently handles projects where a building addition creates the need for a seamless outdoor transition. We can design and construct a deck that integrates with your new addition's doorways and rooflines, matching or complementing the existing architecture. Since your property is near Northborough Crossing, we'll also ensure the deck layout respects any local setback rules and HOA guidelines if applicable, giving you a functional and attractive extension of your living space.
The wind from the last storm blew a section of my wooden fence down near the driveway. Do you offer gate repairs as well?
Yes, we handle both fence and gate repairs. A storm-damaged section near a driveway is a common issue in Northborough. AJ Home Improvements can replace the damaged fence panels and posts, and also inspect your gate hardware—hinges, latches, and posts—to make sure it swings freely and latches securely. If the gate was part of the original fence, we can match the existing style and wood type, or recommend a more durable material like vinyl or composite if you're looking for less maintenance in the future.
