Decking Replacement · San Juan County, WA · San Juan County
San Juan County decks live between moss and salt spray — shaded cedar lots eat boards from the top while marine air corrodes ledger hardware from behind. We replace the decking and railing on structurally sound frames, and flash the house connection like the wall penetration it is.

Here's the honest economics of San Juan County decks: the boards fail long before the frame does. Cedar decking grays, splinters, and goes soft within 15–20 wet years, while the pressure-treated joists underneath often have decades left. Resurfacing — new decking and railing on your existing frame — captures that difference, typically saving thousands over a full rebuild. On the islands it also keeps the project to one staged ferry delivery: boards, railing, and hardware arrive together, ahead of the crew.
To be clear about what we do: we replace decking on existing, structurally sound frames — we don't build new decks from the ground up. The frame verdict comes first: we probe joists, posts, and the ledger connection before quoting. If the structure passes, you get composite-ready spacing corrections and new boards. If it doesn't, we tell you straight — new boards on a rotting frame is the one project we won't sell.
The detail most San Juan County decks get wrong is the ledger — the board bolting the deck to your house. Water that gets behind it rots the house wall itself, which turns a deck project into a rot restoration. As a siding contractor, we flash that connection to wall standards, not deck-builder shortcuts — with hardware spec'd for spray on view decks that face open water.
