Questions and Answers

We're thinking of adding a deck. What does your deck construction process involve from start to finish?

Our deck construction process begins with a free, on-site consultation at your Millsboro home to discuss your vision, usage needs, and budget. We then handle all necessary permits and provide a detailed plan. Our family team handles everything from site preparation and framing to installing your chosen decking materials and safety-compliant railings. We use quality, durable materials suited for our coastal Delaware climate and ensure proper drainage and structural integrity. We manage the entire project, keeping you informed at each step until we complete a final walkthrough to ensure your complete satisfaction.

My deck is looking worn. How do you decide if a repair or a full replacement is needed?

As a family-run business with over 15 years in general contracting, we provide honest assessments. During a free estimate, we'll inspect the deck's structure, focusing on the ledger board attachment, support posts, and joists for rot or insect damage—common issues in our area. If the underlying frame is sound, repairs like replacing boards or railings may be sufficient. However, if we find widespread rot or structural concerns, a replacement is often the safer, more cost-effective long-term solution. We'll clearly explain our findings and recommendations so you can make an informed decision for your home.

I've noticed some issues with my roof in Millsboro. Can you address common local problems like aging shingles and deck rot?

Absolutely. We frequently address these exact issues for homeowners in Millsboro and Sussex County. For aging or damaged shingles, we provide thorough inspections to determine if a repair or a full roof replacement is necessary. More importantly, we check for the less-visible problem of roof deck rot, which can occur from long-term moisture exposure. If rot is present, we replace the compromised decking sections before installing new underlayment and shingles. This comprehensive approach ensures your new roof is built on a solid, secure structure, protecting your home for years to come.
