Wood patio covers
Custom-engineered wood patio covers using exterior-specific construction techniques that prevent water infiltration. Pre-painted lumber with metal coping ensures 30-40 year lifespan requiring only periodic top painting. Our designs maintain property value through material continuity with existing home architecture while providing superior thermal insulation compared to metal alternatives.
Pergola construction
Handcrafted wood pergolas built with proprietary waterproofing methods that eliminate dry rot risks. Each structure features pre-treated lumber connections and thermal insulation properties that maintain comfortable outdoor temperatures. Our designs prioritize aesthetic authenticity while exceeding local building code requirements for structural integrity and weather resistance.
Dry rot repairs
Specialized dry rot remediation using diagnostic techniques to identify moisture sources. We replace damaged components with pressure-treated lumber while preserving structural integrity. Our preventive treatments create moisture barriers that stop future decay, addressing both immediate damage and underlying causes through permanent construction solutions.
Deck and balcony building
Custom deck and balcony construction employing exterior-grade materials and waterproofing systems. Our craftsmen integrate safety railings and privacy screens while maintaining architectural harmony with home exteriors. Each project includes lifetime maintenance guidance focused on preserving structural integrity through proper weatherproofing techniques.
