Second Floor Deck Rebuild- Castle Pines, CO
The phrase “beauty is only skin deep” applies to people AND their decks.
Chuck McGee, your Mountain Man Handyman Colorado, reveals why it is important for property owners to have a clear understanding of their deck or balcony’s condition.
To rebuild this second floor balcony deck Chuck carefully removed all of the decking to reinstall later, removed all of the rotted deck joists, installed new deck joists, and cross-blocked the new joists to increase structural stability of the deck and limit lateral deck shifting or deck twisting in high wind conditions.
