Deck & Porch Construction in Oakbrook Terrace

Deck repair and new decks in Oakbrook Terrace

Our crew replaces rotted deck boards, joists, posts and ledgers, rebuilds stairs and railings to current code, and builds new decks in treated lumber or composite. On any deck that attaches to a house, the ledger is the part we look at first, since that connection is where most failures begin. Ours are flashed and bolted, and an existing ledger that was nailed on or never flashed gets corrected before we build anything over it. You get the scope and the price in writing before work starts.

We cover Oakbrook Terrace from Route 83, Roosevelt Road and 22nd Street, with I-88 a short hop away. It is a DuPage County city bordered by Oak Brook, Villa Park and Lombard. If your home is a townhome, the association usually controls what a deck can look like, from board color to railing style, and some boards want drawings before a permit goes in. We put together the drawings and material list they ask for, so the association approval and the city permit move together.

What to expect from start to finish

First comes a free estimate on site, where we check the deck from underneath and listen to what you need. The written scope spells out each repair, the material and who is handling which approval. Anything we uncover after the boards come up gets priced in writing, and nothing moves until you sign off. We schedule around the permit, show up on the days we gave you and finish with a walkthrough of the deck and stairs.
