Signs You Have an Unsafe Deck

Calcon Decks Kenmore unsafe deck Your deck should be a place where you and your loved ones can gather and enjoy yourselves on a sunny day. However, as decks age, they can start to lose their structural integrity and may even become unsafe. Knowing some of the signs that you have an unsafe deck can help you decide if the time has come for a new one.

Cracked Planks

If your deck has cracked planks, this might be a sign that it is starting to fall apart. While one or two cracks usually aren’t an issue, the more you have, the less safe your deck is going to be. It is a good idea to replace any cracked planks as soon as you notice them.

Soft Joints

The joints that hold your deck or patio cover together will start to weaken over time. This is usually due to age or exposure to weather such as rain or snow. If you notice that the joints on your deck are starting to soften, it may be a good idea to get them fixed.

Wobbly Steps

The steps leading up to your deck from the ground level of your backyard should always feel solid and stable. If your steps aren’t in good shape, this could not only give you an unsafe deck, it may also be a building code violation. In these cases, it is usually best to replace the steps or the whole deck.

From start to finish we enjoyed working with Nathan and the team at Calcon. Nathan helped us envision and design the new deck. He was thoughtful throughout the design process about space, budget, practical use of the space and materials. The Calcon team showed up on time, and they are clearly committed to excellence. Their workmanship is excellent. On time, on budget and on spec excellence from Calcon. Thank you Nathan and your team of builders.

Nathan built Patio cover and deck for us and quality of his workmanship is excellent. He is very professional and and has eye for details. What I liked about him compared to others which I got the quote was that he explained in detail the engineering, he knows his work. He really cares on the architecture details and makes sure, that it fits and aligns well with current building architecture. He is a great contractor and would recommend him for projects. I will definitely hire him for my future projects.

CalCon took on a huge project at our place in Anacortes, WA. He rebuilt a whole ocean facing deck, installed new railings/glass, rebuilt a pergola, and replaced wood with more resilient coastal material. He also added a deck drainage systems along with finishing under the decking. I highly recommend him for any deck project. His crew is very hard working and they did an absolute amazing job. Very competent contractor that has a great attention to detail and kept within the budget.

I recently had to have a large deck replaced. This is the 1st major job I have had to do since the loss of my husband. Being a bit leary of the process and where to go, I contacted Nathan for a bid. He was quick to get back to me and when I explained I would like it done prior to June, he worked my project into his schedule and it is now complete. His care and patience with me through it all was very much appreciated. He and the crew did a great job and clean-up after was well done. I would highly recommend them.

I was very impressed with Nathan from the start who was confident and willing to take on a difficult job replacing our deck that no one else wanted to touch. He was consistently on time, kept the job site organized, and had a strong crew who knew what they were doing and worked well together. I am very pleased with the results so far. We have one more phase of work still to complete and I look forward to enjoying the finished product. Would highly recommend.

Nathan and I had a detailed discussion and agreement before I signed the contract for my 800 sq ft deck. He and his crew performed the job beyond my expectations. I rate them: Communication A+, Quality A+, Engineering and Design A+. I highly recommend Calcon .

Nathan and his crew did an exceptional job building a deck for our new home! It was everything we expected and more. Nathan has a wonderful eye for design and helped guide me with the colors and location. I’m excited to use them again when we’re ready for a deck cover!

Great crew. Super efficient and able to work through any inevitable issues with minimal fuss. We designed a massive 2 part deck and they delivered - including replacement of rotted out elevated deck. See attached pictures for scale.
