Questions and Answers
What causes deck posts to rot or lean in Interlochen?
In Interlochen, deck posts often rot or lean due to moisture from snow melt and rain, especially in areas near Green Lake or the Betsie River. Poor drainage and ground freeze-thaw cycles can also shift posts. Northern Contracting addresses this by inspecting for rot at the base and replacing posts with pressure-treated wood or composite materials, ensuring long-term stability.
How do I know if my fence needs replacement or just repair?
Signs your fence needs more than repair include widespread rotting, large gaps from animal damage (like deer), or multiple leaning posts. If only a few boards are damaged, repair might suffice. Northern Contracting offers free assessments in Interlochen, helping you decide based on the extent of damage and your budget, using durable materials suited for local weather.
Can you add a deck to an existing home without major disruption?
Yes, Northern Contracting specializes in building additions that integrate smoothly with your existing Interlochen home. For decks, we ensure proper footings to handle freezing soil, minimal impact on landscaping, and a design that matches your current roofline or yard layout. We work around your schedule, so you can continue using your home during construction.
