Deck Repair Issues We Can Handle For You
It can be difficult to know when your deck needs either repair or replacing without a professional assessment. A Local Pro is qualified to repair or replace your deck with new joists, railings, floor boards, hardware, and more.
✔ Rotten Joists
Softened, decayed wood that shows signs of wear or water damage is an indication that your joists are rotten and will likely need replacing. Connect with a qualified Local Pro to discuss options for your deck repair needs.
✔ Loose Railings
Loose deck railings indicate the need for rail replacement or securing to prevent potential accidents. Hire a Local Pro and take the hassle out of your deck railing repairs.
✔ Unsecure/bowing Boards
Over time, planks in your deck can become weathered, resulting in bowed, warped or unsecured boards - clear signs that deck repair is needed. A licensed and insured Local Pro near you can help!
✔ Improper Concrete Piles
Deck posts should be anchored in concrete but over time water damage, leaks, and excess moisture can result in the need to replace concrete piles that support your deck. Connect with a Local Pro for a qualified assessment and results.
✔ Uneven/sloping Deck
A sloping or sagging deck could indicate a potential termite problem, water damage, or the need to replace aging planks on your deck to properly support your weight. A Local Pro has the tools to professionally assess your needs and repair your deck
✔ Rusted or Broken Deck hardware
Deck fasteners such as nails, screws and anchors can become loosened or corroded, further compromising your deck’s structural integrity. Contact a Local Pro to evaluate the extent of repairs you’ll need. Connect with a Local Pro to find out if you need deck repair or a new deck replacement:

How Much Should Deck Repair Cost?

Sealing, staining, nail removal, or simple deck board replacements can cost between $100 -$750
✔ Standard Deck Repair Project Costs
For the most common deck repair issues such as replacing railings, fixing a staircase, loose joint or minor structural issues, deck repair can cost between $750 - $2500
✔ Deck Replacement Costs
If your deck exhibits significant signs of structural instability, a replacement may be more cost-effective. Speak to a Local Pro and get an accurate, personalized quote for your deck repair.
Scope of Work
Local Pro will inspect your deck to determine the scope of repairs needed. Minor repairs require less labour and materials. More complex issues such as structural damage require more labour and time.
Decking Material
The type of decking material will impact the cost of your repair. Pressure-treated, weatherproof cedar deck boards, railings, and joists can be less costly to replace than composite or recycled plastic
Deck Size
A large wrap-around deck with a complex design and multiple levels will require more time, labour and expertise to repair than a small, single-level patio deck
Things You Can Do to Maintain Your Deck
The average lifespan of a deck is an average of 10 - 15 years, but this ultimately depends on the material of your deck, how well it is built, and how you maintain it. There are many things you can do to maintain your deck regularly to promote longevity, which includes:
- Clean your deck regularly by scrubbing, applying a suitable cleaner, and power washing
- Stain your deck to refresh it and help it withstand the elements
- Make repairs immediately
- Clear any debris off the deck
