Mohawk & Company: Local Privacy Fence Installation Serving New Baltimore, MI 48051

In New Baltimore, the humid summers and freezing winters can cause decks to show signs like loose or wobbly railings, cracked or splintered boards, visible rot around post bases, and nails or screws popping up. If you notice any of these issues, especially near the water, it's a sign that moisture damage is setting in. Mohawk & Company can inspect your deck and recommend either targeted repairs or a full replacement if the structure is compromised.

Absolutely. Mohawk & Company specializes in building decks that are designed for Michigan's climate. We use pressure-treated lumber and offer options like composite decking, which resists moisture, rot, and warping much better than traditional wood. For homes near the New Baltimore Marina or along the lake, we also install proper flashing and drainage systems to prevent water from pooling and causing long-term damage.

The key factors are the age of your deck and the extent of the damage. If only a few boards are rotted or the railing is loose, a targeted repair is often sufficient. However, if the ledger board (where the deck attaches to your house) is rotting, or if multiple posts are unstable, a full replacement is safer and more cost-effective in the long run. Mohawk & Company will provide an honest assessment and give you a clear breakdown of your options for your New Baltimore home.
