FAQs
What are the early signs of termite damage on my Athens deck?
In our local climate, keep an eye out for hollow-sounding wood when tapped, small piles of sawdust near support posts, and small, mud-like tunnels on the foundation or underside of your deck. If you see splintering or sagging in areas that stay damp, those could be signs of termites already at work. Strongates Builders can inspect and repair or replace affected sections before the damage spreads.
Will deck replacement fix ongoing mold and mildew problems from our humidity?
Yes—if the current wood is deeply infested with mold or mildew, a full replacement using treated lumber or composite materials can solve the problem permanently. Strongates Builders uses moisture-resistant materials and proper flashing techniques to reduce future growth. We also recommend annual cleaning and sealing to keep your new deck looking clean and safe for your family.
Can you repair a section of my deck that has termite damage, or does it need full replacement?
It depends on how far the damage extends. If the termite damage is isolated to a few boards or posts, our team can precisely cut out the affected wood and splice in new, treated sections. However, if the damage has weakened the structural frame or foundation, a full replacement is safer and more cost-effective long-term. We’ll give you an honest, neighborly assessment for your Athens home.
