Hampton job, brick ranch, deck sitting a couple feet off the ground.

The part worth pointing at here is the skirting. Composite boards closing in the open framing, and a hinged access door built right into it. Plenty of decks get skirted with no way back underneath. Then something needs looking at down there and you're prying boards off to get to it.

Ventilation matters too. Skirting that seals up tight traps moisture against your framing.

Not every old deck has to come all the way down.

If the framing underneath is still solid, we can pull the boards and put composite on the same structure. That saves real money. But the frame has to check out first, and that means somebody actually getting under there and looking. Joist tops, the ledger where it ties into the house, the post bases down at grade. Around Portsmouth we run into ledger rot pretty often, usually from flashing that got skipped years back.

If the frame is soft, new boards just put a good looking deck on top of a bad one. We'll tell you that instead of selling you one.

Summer evenings are the best reason to have a deck. This one catches the last light nice, and the low lights on the steps come on once it gets dark. Wide stairs run down to the patio so folks can spread out. The boards are composite, so upkeep stays low, and the step lights are built into the stairs from the start. We build decks like this around Poquoson. We're owner-operated, licensed and insured, and we stand behind our work. Thinking about one?

A bigger deck doesn't have to be one big payment up front. We've had Suffolk homeowners hold off on the composite skirting or the full railing because the whole project felt like too much at once. So we set up financing. Qualified folks can spread the cost into monthly payments and still build the deck they actually want instead of a stripped-down version. Nobody's going to push you into it. It's there if it helps. We wrote up how it works and who handles the payments here: https://bnbdecks.com/financing/. Give us a call or send us a message.
