"There was nothing precise "Precision" Construction see my images. There are mistakes on almost all aspects of the project. They failed inspections 2-3 times from the borough and built it a whole foot shorter then our agreed to design and drawing. Lowlights include: - Crooked things everywhere - Gaps in the boards - They made the posts to short top to put on caps with handrails. Instead of fixing, they left unprotected splintering 2x4s on the stairs - The fascia board is is coming off. You can see daylight through it - Left more then a hundred of nail and screws around my brick patio and parts of yard. Still finding them. I have a pool, and lots of bare foot kids in this area. - No miters or outside corners - didn't buy end trex boards for stairs or other locations (showing ugly grooves and ends) See my images, this deck is small and I don't have enough characters to type mistakes and can only have 10 images. Awful. Avoid at all costs."

If you notice visible damage like holes, split boards, or termite damage, structural issues such as rot, mold, warping, or damaged support posts, or safety concerns like loose railings or rusting hardware, it might be time for a new deck. Upgrading your deck enhances your outdoor living space, increases your property's value, and improves safety for your family.
Building a rooftop deck costs between $25,000 and $50,000 , depending on structural enhancements, materials, and labor. While the upfront cost is higher, rooftop decks offer excellent ROI, potentially recouping your entire investment.
Deck repairs cost between $800 and $3,500. When your deck shows signs of damage, such as loose boards, weakened railings, or mold, the repair costs fall within that range. The expense is determined by the severity of the damage, the decking material, and the labor charges in your area. Immediate repairs keep the structure safe, prolong the deck’s lifespan, and protect your property's value.
Composite decking is more expensive than wood because it is engineered for durability and low maintenance. Unlike wood, composite materials resist rot, fading, and warping, eliminating the need for regular staining or sealing. The manufacturing process and high-quality materials contribute to the higher price. Over time, composite decking saves money on maintenance and replacement, making it a cost-effective investment.
Composite decking delivers outstanding durability and significantly lower maintenance requirements than wood. Its materials resist rotting, fading, and warping even under harsh weather conditions. The high-performance construction negates the need for frequent staining or sealing, ensuring long-term structural integrity and a consistently attractive appearance for your outdoor living space.
Adding a deck increases your home’s value by creating an enhanced outdoor living space that appeals to buyers and improves overall property aesthetics. Installing a wooden deck can offer up to a 52% ROI, while composite decks deliver around a 40% return. The value boost depends on the deck’s size, material, design, and upkeep, making it a smart, long-term investment.
