Rebuilding a Deck for Lasting Strength and Timeless Appeal
When the homeowners in Oxford, Ohio, contacted The Custom Deck Guys, their deck had become unsafe and no longer served its purpose. They needed more than just a replacement; they wanted a space that was both durable and beautiful—one that would allow them to enjoy their outdoor area.
The project began by removing the old deck, railing, staircase, and skirting. Once cleared, we found that the original framework didn’t meet modern standards. The joist spacing was too wide, so we installed new treated lumber joists with proper spacing to ensure a stable and secure foundation for the new structure.
A key request from the homeowners was a picture frame border around the deck’s edge. We carefully cut and installed the Trex decking to form sharp, clean lines, and finished the design with Trex Transcend railing, which adds both function and elegance.
The completed deck provides a low-maintenance surface that only requires occasional cleaning. The Trex Transcend railing offers both security and a modern aesthetic, while Trex skirting adds a polished look.
This new deck is more than just a space to relax—it’s a dependable and stylish area that meets the homeowners’ needs without constant maintenance, providing a lasting foundation.
