FAQs

I need a new wooden fence around my yard in Johnson City. What types of wood do you recommend for our local weather?

For Johnson City's humid summers and cold winters, I typically recommend pressure-treated pine for its durability and cost-effectiveness, or cedar for its natural resistance to rot and insects. Both handle the local freeze-thaw cycles well when properly installed and sealed. I'll help you choose the best option based on your property's sun exposure and your budget.

My deck has a few loose boards and looks faded. Can you repair it instead of replacing the whole thing?

Absolutely. I specialize in deck repair, including replacing rotted or loose boards, reinforcing railings, and sanding and staining faded surfaces. If the underlying structure is sound, we can often extend the life of your deck for years. I'll inspect the framing and joists to make sure it's safe before starting any work.

My wooden gate keeps sagging and dragging on the ground. Is this a common problem in Johnson City?

Yes, gate sagging is very common here due to the heavy clay soil and moisture changes. I fix this by reinforcing the gate frame with diagonal bracing, replacing worn hinges with heavy-duty ones, and resetting the posts if they've shifted. For automatic gates, I also check the track and motor alignment. This keeps your gate working smoothly through all seasons.
