Exterior Painting in Boerum Hill 11217
The danger of rotting deck wood goes beyond the fact that it looks deplorable. It may appear as if it still holds weight but it can break, causing a major rupture in the material as well as a broken ankle or leg, for starters. Fungus, mildew and pesky insects can take up residence, further compromising the wood’s integrity as well as possibly spreading to other surfaces.
A wonderful, strong, metal base was already in place on this circa 1901 brick home in Brooklyn, but the wood deck over that needed replacement. We took it apart, hauled away the old wood and gathered our superb construction crew and their tools to evaluate, take accurate measurements, cut to fit and expertly install the new exterior wood walkway.
Trex style composite is extremely durable and protects against moisture, bugs, and fungal decay. We also used galvanized screws, which are treated with a zinc coating that deters rust. This entryway now functions much like a front door – that proverbial first impression that spells class, style and safety in the amiable Boerum Hill neighborhood.
