Deck repair - Fulton County
Alpharetta is largely 1990s and 2000s subdivisions on either side of GA-400, built quickly and in volume, with HOAs and a builder-installed deck on the back of most houses. Those decks are now twenty to thirty years old, which is the point where builder-grade framing and fasteners start to show: galvanised nails backing out, hangers rusting, and railing posts loosening. It is the most predictable repair in this part of the metro.
Alpharetta grew fast through the 1990s and 2000s, subdivision by subdivision along GA-400, Old Milton Parkway and Windward. Nearly every one of those houses came with a deck on the back, built quickly to a price by the builder. Those decks are now twenty to thirty years old, and that is where builder-grade construction starts to show.
The usual findings are consistent enough to predict. Nails backing out of the boards. Joist hangers and fasteners that were not rated for the treated lumber they were driven into, now rusting. Railing posts held on with a pair of bolts, loosening every season. Stairs whose bottom stringers sit on a sunken paver. The frames are often basically sound, which makes many Alpharetta decks good candidates for repair rather than replacement.
Most subdivisions here have an HOA, and while like-for-like repair usually needs no approval, switching to composite, changing a colour, or screening in the deck often does. We provide dimensions and materials in writing to submit. Where the work needs a building permit, it goes through the City of Alpharetta.
Builder-deck repair and upgrades: railing and stair repair, board replacement, often to composite, fastener and hanger repairs, screened porches, frame work, ledger flashing, staining, replacement.
