Deck Replacement & Resurfacing in San Antonio, Texas.
Keep the structure, replace the surface — or replace the whole deck. We tell you honestly which one you need.
Plenty of San Antonio backyards are living with a deck older than the trees shading it. In the established neighborhoods inside Loop 410 and the first ring of 1990s suburbs beyond it, wood decks have been through twenty-plus summers of South Texas sun, and it shows in the boards long before it shows in the frame.
The honest question is which parts are worth keeping. Sun-checked decking over sound framing is a resurface; a frame with rusted fasteners, undersized posts, or piers heaved by expansive clay is a rebuild. We inspect the structure, tell you plainly which one you need, and either way the new surface goes on framing verified for another few decades of this climate.
San Antonio questions
We open up the structure and look: joist condition, fastener corrosion, post size, and how the piers have handled San Antonio's expansive clay. If the frame is sound and correctly built, resurfacing with new boards is the right call. If it is not, we say so, because new decking over a failing frame wastes the boards.
It is common on older San Antonio homes and it is solvable. A full rebuild is permitted as new work with whichever authority your address answers to, city, county, or one of the metro's independent cities, and we bring the structure up to current code in the process.
Clay soils across central and south San Antonio swell and shrink with the seasons, and decades of that movement is often what killed the old deck. During a rebuild we set new piers to depths matched to the soil, so the replacement is standing on a better foundation than the original ever had.
