Deck repair - Fulton County
Sandy Springs sits between I-285 and the Chattahoochee, and a lot of its housing is 1960s and 70s ranches and split-levels on large, steep, heavily wooded lots running down toward the river and its tributaries. Decks here tend to be big, high on the downhill side, and deep in shade. Lots near the river can fall inside the Chattahoochee corridor, which adds a review step to new construction, and the city has run its own permitting since incorporating in 2005.
Between I-285 and the Chattahoochee, Sandy Springs has some of the steepest and most heavily wooded residential lots in the metro area. A lot of the housing is 1960s and 70s ranches and split-levels off Mount Paran, Riverside, Heards Ferry and Dalrymple, set well back and falling away toward the river and its tributaries. The decks match the lots: large, high on the downhill side, and shaded almost all day.
A big deck rarely fails evenly. The section under the densest canopy, or nearest a downspout, will be soft while the sunny end is fine. We map the deck rather than guess, which often means the repair is a targeted section of joists and boards and a couple of posts, not the whole thing. High decks here also get a close look at bracing and guard rails.
Sandy Springs has handled its own permitting since it incorporated in 2005. Lots close to the Chattahoochee can sit inside the river corridor, which adds a review step to new construction and to enlarging a deck. Repair within the existing footprint usually proceeds normally, and we check before any change in size.
Targeted work on big, shaded decks: section-by-section frame repair, board replacement, guard rails and long stairs, repairs, mildew cleaning and staining, ledgers, replacement, screening in.
