Good to know

Deck Repair & Board Replacement in Charleston — FAQ

Do the new boards need to match the old ones exactly?

We do our best to match species and width. New pressure-treated lumber won't match weathered wood right away but evens out over a season or two. Staining can speed that up.

How do you know which boards need to go?

We probe the wood with a screwdriver — soft spots that sink in mean rot underneath. We replace what's compromised and leave solid boards in place.

Can you fix the railings while you're replacing boards?

Yes, absolutely. We handle both in the same visit so you're not scheduling two separate calls.

Do I need a permit to replace deck boards?

Replacing like-for-like boards on an existing deck generally doesn't require a permit, but if we're rebuilding sections of the frame or stairs, local rules vary — we'll flag it if it applies to your job.

Local context

Deck Repair & Board Replacement across Charleston

Charleston's humid subtropical climate, salt air and active storm season are tough on homes — swollen doors, rusting hardware, mildew-prone caulk and storm-loosened trim are all common. Downtown's historic houses add original plaster walls and tight, detailed millwork, while West Ashley and the islands bring newer builds with their own quirks. Our pros are comfortable with both.
