The Inspection
The project at this Herndon, VA property started with the careful removal of 324 square feet of damaged and weathered decking boards. Once the old surface was cleared, our team conducted a detailed inspection of the existing wood joists to assess their structural integrity. Ensuring a solid and healthy foundation is our priority before installing any new materials, providing the homeowner with peace of mind and a safe base for their renovated outdoor space.
The Process
We installed new 5/4” x 6” pressure-treated wood decking boards across the entire 324-square-foot surface, utilizing a clean horizontal pattern with two vertical boards on center for enhanced structural stability and a professional aesthetic. To ensure the longest possible lifespan for the deck, every board was secured using professional-grade #9 x 3” star-drive flat-head wood deck screws, which provide a flush, snag-free finish. Additionally, we replaced 47 linear feet of the top railing with durable 2” x 6” pressure-treated wood boards, refreshing the entire perimeter and reinforcing the safety and look of the deck.
The Result
The final result is a beautiful and revitalized outdoor living area that combines the classic look of natural wood with modern construction standards. This 324-square-foot renovation in Herndon, VA, not only improves the home’s curb appeal but also ensures a durable space for family gatherings for years to come.
