My client, Ellen, wanted to update her shabby deck floor.
We explored painted wood decking vs. composite decking and decided to use composite for its long-term durability.

As I disassembled the old deck floor, I found that certain joists were rotting away.
Not good for a second-story balcony deck…

We agreed on the additional repair scope and costs and replaced the rotting joists with pressure-treated lumber to prevent future rot.

After the structural repairs I completed the installation of the composite deck floor.
Looks sharp!
The cost to repair the deck, in Fort Collins, in March of 2021, was $2,880 and took approximately 25 hours to complete.
