If there is one area that truly highlights the difference about our work, it is our decks. One might easily assume that "all decks are created equal" and that would be a mistake. We have found that the way in which a deck is built determines alot about the durability and ease of maintenance for your deck. Here is a comparison of how a tradition deck is built and how a Townsend Remodeling deck is built:

THE TRADITIONAL DECK

  • Nails used on floorboards

  • Floorboards laid down as is

  • Rail posts go to floorboard in length

  • Support posts placed in concrete that is ground level

THE TOWNSEND DECK

  • Screws used on floorboards - see below

  • Angles cut along seams where floorboards meet - see below

  • Rail posts are stopped short of floorboard - see below

  • Support posts placed in concrete that is above ground

THE TOWNSEND DIFFERENCE

  • Screws prevent boards from popping

  • Allows floorboards to expand with minimal, if any, cracking

  • Creates a more secure rail post, plus allows for easier cleanup of your deck as you can sweep debris, leaves, etc. easily off the deck floor.

  • Prevents potential rotting from water runoff on ground plus minimizes termite access.
