We repair all types of decking — timber, composite, and PVC — and we're often able to save you the cost of a full replacement.
Common Decking Problems We Fix in Liverpool
Liverpool's damp climate can take its toll on outdoor decking, particularly timber. Here are the most common decking problems we repair:
• Rotten or Decaying Boards — Moisture damage is the number one cause of decking failure in Liverpool. We replace affected boards and treat surrounding timber to prevent further spread.
• Loose or Popped Fixings — Over time, screws and nails can work loose, creating trip hazards. We re-secure all fixings and replace any that are corroded.
• Warped or Buckled Boards — Temperature changes and moisture can cause boards to warp. We straighten or replace affected sections.
• Structural Damage — Problems with joists, bearers, or posts can compromise the safety of your entire deck. We carry out thorough structural assessments and make necessary repairs.
• Algae and Mould Build-Up — Slippery, discoloured decking is both unsightly and dangerous. We provide deep cleaning and anti-slip treatment.
• Splintering — Older timber decking can develop splinters that make it uncomfortable and unsafe to walk on barefoot.

When to Repair vs Replace Your Decking
Not every damaged deck needs replacing. If the structural framework (joists and bearers) is sound and the damage is limited to surface boards, a repair is usually the most cost-effective option.
However, if more than 30-40% of your boards are damaged, or if the substructure has significant rot or structural issues, a full replacement may be the better long-term investment.
We always provide honest, impartial advice and will never recommend unnecessary work. Our priority is getting you the best result for your budget.
