Deck, Stairs & Railing Build
A new raised back deck with stairs, railings and balusters, built from framing to finished stain.
Safe steps. Straight fences.
Kentucky weather is hard on wood. We replace rotted boards and stair treads, tighten railings, repair porch floors and get outdoor spaces safe again.
Sound familiar?

How we do it
Check boards, fasteners, railings, posts and gates.
Swap damaged boards, pickets and rails with matching material.
Tighten and reinforce railings, stairs and gate hardware.
Leave it clean and ready for stain or sealer.
Loose railings and soft stair treads are the repairs not to put off. If we find structural problems beyond repair scope, we'll tell you plainly.
Most deck problems start small: a board that stays wet, a railing screw that backs out. Regular deck maintenance keeps repairs small.
Cleaning, board replacement and sealing bring a tired wood deck back before it needs a rebuild.
Soft porch boards, loose steps and wobbly railings repaired with matching materials.
Most decks don't need replacing — they need a few boards, new fasteners and a solid railing. We repair what's failing and tell you honestly if the frame underneath needs more.
Every job is different, so we price after we understand yours — and you'll always know the cost before we start. The biggest factors:

Tip from the Fox
Sprinkle water on your deck: if it soaks in instead of beading, it's time to reseal before winter.
We provide deck & porch repair in Lexington and nearby Central Kentucky communities. Find your town:
