Deck Installation in Rye Brooke NY

Double R A Construction was contacted by a prospective homeowner seeking a solution for a severely weathered deck on their 2,300-square-foot single-family home, nestled in a scenic area of Westchester County. After years of exposure to the elements and regular use, the deck had deteriorated and required a modern, durable replacement.

The existing deck was originally built using traditional wood materials, such as cedar or redwood, once the go-to choice for outdoor structures. However, with advancements in decking materials over the years, homeowners now have access to more durable and low-maintenance options, including PVC (vinyl), composite, and pressure-treated wood.

Our team conducted a thorough on-site evaluation of the existing structure. This included inspecting the joists, beams, ledger board, footings, and overall alignment. We looked for signs of sagging, instability, or any structural weaknesses. These steps are essential to ensure the substructure can safely support a new decking surface without requiring extensive structural repairs.

Following our assessment, we provided the homeowner with our findings and presented several material options. Based on their preferences and long-term goals, they selected pressure-treated decking, a reliable and cost-effective material known for its durability and resistance to rot and insects.

 

Double R A Construction completed the deck and railing replacement within the agreed timeline, delivering a refreshed and modernized outdoor space that enhances the property's usability and curb appeal.
