Cameron Project – Huge Engineered Cedar Deck
The existing deck was too narrow along the house and in terrible shape. We started by reinforcing the footings and columns supporting the house and worked up and out, extending the deck and upgrading all of the framing. Micropiles were drilled into the ground 20-30′ and then concrete grade beams poured around the existing footings and the new micro-pile soil anchors. New Post saddles were added to the concrete piers and new angled struts added to extend the deck. The decking and railings are all clear western red...

The client wanted their deck rebuilt. The existing deck was two levels, creating lots of useless space. It was also old, worn, ugly and rotting. There was a shed-style roof over half of the deck with a flat pergola extending from the roof over the rest of the deck.

The deck stain was a platinum colour, giving the deck a clean and unique look. To add to the appearance we added decorative matching scaled-down railings on the flat roof portion above the...

There was an existing gate in rough condition and lots of rot in the fascia and roof framing behind it We rebuilt the gate, repaired and replaced the rot, and built a new extended entrance cover. We also did tongue-and groove cedar inside the skylight area to replace the stucco that was removed to repair the rot damage.
