Big Hammer Contracting | Professional Commercial Fencing in Sidney, OH

The main cause is moisture trapped in wood due to Sidney’s humid summers and frequent rain, combined with freeze-thaw cycles in winter. Poor drainage under the deck and lack of proper sealing accelerate damage. Big Hammer Contracting can inspect your deck, recommend waterproofing solutions, and replace rotted boards with treated or composite materials that resist moisture.

Signs include loose or bouncy boards, visible rot or splintering, nails popping up, and railing that wobbles. If more than 30% of the structure is compromised, replacement is often more cost-effective. Big Hammer Contracting offers free on-site assessments in Sidney to determine the best course of action, whether that’s targeted repairs or a full rebuild.

Yes. We source lumber and stain colors to match your current deck as closely as possible. For partial replacements, we blend new boards with old ones by using similar grain patterns and applying a uniform sealant. If the original deck is discontinued, we can recommend a compatible style or upgrade the entire surface for a consistent look.
