Common Questions
How do you handle wood fence post rot, which is common in Schenectady’s wet winters?
We use pressure-treated lumber rated for ground contact and set posts in concrete with a slight gravel base for drainage. This prevents moisture buildup that causes rot. On existing fences, we can replace only the rotted posts and re-secure the rest of the panels.
Can you build a new deck over an old one, or do you always need to remove the old structure first?
In most cases, we recommend a full deck replacement for safety and longevity. Old decks may have hidden rot, inadequate footings, or outdated building codes. We handle the tear-out and installation, ensuring the new deck is level, secure, and built to last.
Do you offer fence options if I need a secure enclosure for my dog in my backyard?
Yes. We install chain link, aluminum, and PVC fences that are ideal for dog enclosures. We can also add a self-closing gate latch to prevent escapes. For homeowners in Rotterdam or Latham, we measure on-site so the fence fits your yard’s contours.
