Fences & Decks in Oakley, CA | G & S Construction

Many Oakley homes have clay-heavy soil that expands and contracts with moisture, causing fence posts to shift or rot over time. We address this by digging deeper post holes, adding a gravel base for drainage, and setting posts in concrete. For wood posts, we use pressure-treated lumber rated for ground contact. For vinyl or aluminum fences, we install metal sleeves or concrete anchors that resist moisture damage. This approach prevents the leaning and cracking that often occurs after wet winters.

Deck repair is best when the structure is still sound but has isolated issues like loose boards, minor rot, or failing railings. We can replace damaged planks, reinforce joists, or upgrade hardware. Deck replacement is needed when the frame is rotting, the ledger board is compromised, or the deck no longer meets safety codes. If you’re unsure, we offer free inspections to assess the condition and give you an honest recommendation.
