FAQs

What types of decks do you build and how do you handle repairs or replacements in Durham?

We build pressure-treated, composite, and cedar decks for residential and commercial clients. For repairs, we inspect for rot, loose boards, or structural issues and replace damaged sections. If a deck is beyond repair, we handle full tear-outs and install a new deck that meets current Durham building codes. We also stain or paint to match your home.

Can you install an automatic gate for my Durham property, and what kind of maintenance is needed?

Yes, we install automatic gates for driveways and entrances. We use reliable operators from brands like LiftMaster and Apollo. Regular maintenance includes checking the opener, lubricating hinges, and testing safety sensors. We offer repair services if your gate stops working, covering everything from motor issues to track alignment.

How do you handle fence weatherproofing to protect against Durham's humidity and occasional storms?

We apply weatherproofing sealants suitable for wood fences, and for vinyl or ornamental fences we ensure proper installation to prevent moisture damage. Our team recommends annual inspections to check for loose posts or rust. For repairs, we reinforce sections that may have been affected by wet soil or high winds common in Durham.
