Fix It Before Someone Gets Hurt

Siding Installation & Replacement in Johns Creek

When boards start to crack, railings wobble, or the entire deck feels unstable underfoot, it is time to address the problem before someone steps through a weak spot or leans on a loose post. Decks in Johns Creek take a beating from sun, rain, and humidity, and even well-built structures develop problems over time as fasteners corrode, wood swells and shrinks, and surface boards wear down from foot traffic. You need repairs that restore safety, stability, and structural integrity.

Jordan Carpentry & Siding repairs decks damaged by loose boards, rotted framing, rusted fasteners, and surface deterioration caused by Georgia weather. The work includes inspecting the structure for hidden damage, replacing compromised boards or posts, reinforcing connections, and refinishing the surface to protect against future wear. This is ideal for aging decks that need attention but do not require full replacement.

Schedule a deck evaluation in Johns Creek to assess the condition of your deck and determine what repairs are needed.

What Gets Checked and Fixed During Repairs

The repair process starts with a full inspection of the deck structure, including posts, beams, joists, decking boards, and railings. Jordan Carpentry & Siding checks for rot, insect damage, loose fasteners, and any signs that the structure is pulling away from the house. Damaged sections are removed and replaced with new lumber, and all connections are reinforced with galvanized or stainless steel hardware.

Once the repairs are complete, you will notice a solid, stable surface that does not flex, creak, or feel unsafe when you walk across it. Loose railings are tightened, soft spots are eliminated, and the deck returns to its original structural strength.

Jordan Carpentry & Siding has been serving Johns Creek since 2003 and works on residential and commercial decks of all sizes. The team responds quickly to repair requests and focuses on extending the life of your deck without unnecessary replacement. Some decks only need targeted repairs to specific boards or supports, while others require more extensive work depending on how long the damage has been present.

Things You Should Ask Before Scheduling Repairs

Property owners in Johns Creek often want to know whether their deck can be repaired or if it needs to be rebuilt entirely. The following questions cover the most common concerns before repair work begins.

How do I know if my deck is unsafe?
You should treat your deck as unsafe if you see boards that flex or crack when you step on them, railings that move when you lean on them, or posts that are soft or rotted at the base. These are signs of structural failure that need immediate attention.
What causes deck boards to rot?
Rot happens when moisture gets trapped in the wood due to poor drainage, lack of ventilation, or prolonged contact with wet leaves and debris. High humidity and warm temperatures in Johns Creek speed up the decay process once moisture is present.
Can you replace individual boards without rebuilding the deck?
Jordan Carpentry & Siding replaces individual boards or sections of framing as long as the rest of the structure is sound. If the framing is compromised or the deck is pulling away from the house, more extensive repairs are required.
How long will deck repairs last?
Repairs last as long as the surrounding structure remains intact and the deck is properly maintained. You should clean the deck regularly, apply a protective finish every few years, and inspect for new damage after heavy storms.
How much does deck repair cost compared to replacement?
Repair costs depend on the extent of the damage, but they are typically a fraction of full replacement costs if the framing is still structurally sound. Jordan Carpentry & Siding provides a written estimate after inspecting your deck in Johns Creek.
