Deck Repair & Construction

Your deck is where summer happens — morning coffee, weekend cookouts, and evenings watching the fireflies. But New England's brutal winters, spring rains, and summer sun take a heavy toll on even the best-built decks. Home Repair Solutions specializes in deck repair, restoration, and new construction, bringing 46 years of structural carpentry expertise to every project.

Deck problems rarely stay small. A few soft boards can signal deeper issues — rotting joists, corroded fasteners, or compromised ledger connections that affect the structural integrity of the entire deck. Scott's approach starts with a thorough inspection of the substructure, not just the surface. We identify and address the root cause so your repair lasts for decades, not just until the next winter.

For deck repairs, we replace damaged boards, railings, stairs, and structural members using materials that match or exceed the original specification. We work with pressure-treated lumber, cedar, composite decking (Trex, TimberTech, Azek), and exotic hardwoods like ipe and mahogany. We can also upgrade your existing deck with new railings, built-in seating, or integrated lighting.

When a full rebuild makes more sense than patching, we design and construct custom decks tailored to your home's architecture and your family's lifestyle. Every deck we build meets or exceeds Massachusetts building codes, with properly spaced joists, code-compliant railings, and flashed ledger connections that prevent water intrusion into your home.

We also offer deck staining and sealing services to protect your investment and extend the life of your deck. Our prep process includes power washing, sanding, and applying premium penetrating stains that resist UV damage and moisture — the two biggest enemies of wood decks in our climate.
