Get A Deck Repair That You Know You Can Trust
Deck repairs are not always one-day projects. Many of the decks we inspected had their frames and posts rotten so bad that they were about to fall at the slightest push.
These are decks that can’t be repaired without undergoing an extensive project. If you want your deck to be 100% functional and safe, you’ll need to replace the frame and posts altogether.
Sometimes, however, the deck frame and posts are in a good state, but the beauty of the deck is not what it used to be. In that case, our customers decide to replace their wood decking with low-maintenance composite decking that lasts longer and doesn’t need constant staining or sealing.
At Werner Decks, our main goal when repairing a deck is to make it safe for you and your family. After a thorough inspection, we’ll be blunt and tell you exactly what your deck needs. It’s up to you if you want to make your deck safe for your family, or just want to make it look better.

Types Of Deck Repair and Upgrades
When it comes to deck repair in Arnold, Maryland, our customers have a lot of upgrade options. At your on-site consultation, you’ll get a detailed breakdown of all the upgrades and repairs you can get.
Below are the most common repairs and upgrades you can get for your deck in Arnold, MD.
Composite Decking
While for younger homeowners staining, sealing, and pressure washing their deck can be relaxing, older homeowners would rather have someone else do it.
Very often we’ve had older customers that simply couldn’t maintain their wood deck any longer. It became a matter of too much effort and money. We told them about low-maintenance composite decking and they were thrilled to learn more about it and even try it out.
Composite is a much better alternative to wood decks. They last longer, don’t require ongoing maintenance, and you’ll save money on stains and sealers so you can invest elsewhere in your home. We work with TimberTech and Trex decking, but we can adapt and work with your preferred material as well.
Metal Railing
Along with the wood decking, the wood rail is also prone to rot or insect damage that will weaken the stability of the railing.
Our deck repair projects consist in either refinishing a wood rail to look a little better or will mean replacing it altogether with a more durable and resistant material.
Metal railing, like aluminum or wrought iron railing, is increasing in popularity, as more homeowners value their safety and know how dangerous an unreliable wood railing can be.
Composite railing is another viable option, but when you realize the price of a good composite railing is similar to that of a good aluminum railing, we’re sure you’d pick the aluminum.
Deck Frame
The most serious issues with older decks come from their frame. Back in the day, deck posts were placed directly in the ground and the lumber was poorly treated against the elements.
This caused the posts to rot at a faster rate, and the frame to be wobbly and dangerous at every step.
Lately, we’re seeing a lot of homeowners choosing metal frames for their outdoor space. These are extremely durable and will resist even the harshest weather conditions. Fortress Building Products make excellent deck metal frame kits that are easy to install and highly reliable.
For a more budget-friendly alternative, Grade 1 pressure-treated lumber is still a decent option that will guarantee your deck is safe for the next few years.
Deck Footings
Most older decks had wood posts installed directly in the ground. This meant the wood was the first victim of rot, termites, and wood worms.
Since then, things changed, and even the law doesn’t allow wood posts to be buried directly in the ground.
Some of the better alternatives are concrete deck blocks, concrete footings, or other methods like the helical pier.

Frequently Asked Questions
If your deck starts showing a bit of wear and tear but still feels sturdy, minor repairs like a new coat of stain or several boards replaced will definitely improve its looks.
If the actual problem is with its wood posts or framing, your deck’s structural integrity is compromised and will be a safety hazard. In this case, rebuilding your deck altogether is recommended.
After our on-site consultation and our inspection, we’ll be honest about what your deck truly needs. Then, it’s up to you if you want it to look good, or be safe and look great.
The deck repair cost in Arnold varies depending on the extent of the damage.
For example, repairing worn-out and damaged stairs may only cost about $5k while replacing an entire 12×12 wood deck will cost around $14k. Any extra upgrades, like adding a pergola or built-in furniture, will drive the cost up.
Once we assess your deck’s condition, we’ll be able to give you an accurate time estimate.
