Choosing Marks Building Co. for All of Your Porch Repair Needs

A deck or porch is a beautiful addition to any home. It's the place where you'll entertain family and friends, make memories during summer cookouts, and enjoy a good sunset for years to come.

To keep it looking its best, your porch or deck not only needs regular maintenance, but could require certain repairs over its lifespan to ensure it stays in the best possible condition. Let's say you're noticing rotting wood, or the footings are beginning to crack after years of wear and tear. Maybe the deck boards are splintering, the posts are eroding, and the rails are loosening. These are just a few signs that your deck or porch might need some repair work.

Other Signs Your Deck or Porch Could Need Repairs

If you've got a wood deck, there are many things to keep an eye on. Be on the lookout for darker colors in the wood, soft spots in the wood, warped boards, and popped nails and screws. If the wood is holding moisture, that could be a sign to call a deck repair contractor as well.

These are all afflictions that could befall your house's deck or porch (and this includes screened-in porches), especially if you haven't been maintaining it on a regular basis. But don't worry - if you're noticing any of these things happening to your own deck, Marks Building Co. can help. This goes for any type of deck, too. In addition to repairing wood decks and porches, we are also experts in working with composite decks, which includes Trex.

What Do Our Deck Repair Services Look Like?

We've been in business for more than 35 years, so trust us when we say we've truly seen it all. There is no porch or deck repair project that our team of residential construction and repair experts can't handle, and we pride ourselves on making sure our customers feel at ease about the entire process.

Even if your deck repair project requires construction of new elements (like a pergola or other shade structures), potential deck resurfacing, or a complete rebuild, our team will take care of the entire project, from the initial designs to getting the necessary permits to getting the job done right to your specifications.

Customer service will always be our main focus. We'll come out to your home and assess the deck or porch to get a full idea of what we're working with and what kind of job it will require. Our guarantee, though, is that the final product will be exactly what you're looking for, so you can get back to feeling proud of your home's deck.

Preventive Measures to Keep Your Deck Looking Its Best

While deck and porch repair can sometimes be unavoidable, you can extend the life of your deck by doing some of the following:

Inspect the wood for signs of rot

By regularly inspecting the deck/porch, you'll be able to get ahead of potential larger problems down the line. Check for rot where the deck is close to the ground, or in areas where water regularly collects; these are hotspots for rot, and it'll help you determine just how much repair work or maintenance your deck might need. Be sure to also check the deck posts for signs of weakness or rot.

Regularly clean the deck's surface

Not only does a clean porch or deck look great, but keeping it free of dirt and debris goes a long way to reducing the possibility of wood rot and other issues. Rinsing your deck with a power washer is a fantastic way to keep your deck looking brand-new. At the same time, simply sweeping your deck and keeping it clear of backyard debris is a simple way to not only keep your deck looking great, but to prevent the moisture from that debris affecting the wood.
