Foundation Repairs: The garage foundation showed visible cracking and was letting moisture into the interior space. We started by hand-digging around both the front and rear foundation walls, cleaning out all loose material and identifying the worst crack zones. Concrete repairs included new hydraulic cement patching, crack injections, and water-sealing compounds to keep future moisture out. Drainage around the footing was improved with clean stone and slope corrections.

Deck Demolition & Rebuild: The rear deck, originally “hanging” off the house and adjacent framing without any proper footings, was a safety hazard. We fully demolished the affected deck section, then excavated for eight new footings — each one formed, poured, and reinforced to modern code. 6x6 posts set in the new footings now bear the weight. The new deck frame was assembled with 2x8 pressure-treated lumber, notched and connected for maximum strength. Only top-grade 2x6 decking boards were used, hand-picked for straightness and longevity, and set with tight, even spacing.

Door Restoration: Both sliding glass doors had become nearly unusable from decades of wear and sagging framing. Instead of costly replacements, we pulled both doors, rebuilt and leveled the tracks, adjusted hardware, and reinstalled the units for smooth, easy operation — saving the homeowner thousands and extending the lifespan of original features.

Finishing Touches: After structural work was complete, we graded the surrounding landscape to direct water away from the foundation, refreshed driveway edges, and tidied the backyard for a complete, polished result.

Why it Matters: Decks and doors that work as intended do more than just “look good” — they make a home livable and safe. This job resolved underlying risks and brought a tired property back to a standard you can trust for years.
