Plan your deck inspection visit

A contractor assessment considers accessible decking, posts, framing, house connections, stairs, and railings. We discuss the visible findings and the limits of the visit so you know what the estimate addresses.

From the visit to a written scope

The on-site findings discussion helps define a repair scope. Concealed components, engineering analysis, and required licensed reports need a separately agreed service.

Scheduling and access in Lawrenceburg

Provide the full property address rather than only the city name. We will confirm scheduling, the number of structures, safe access below the deck, and who should attend the visit. If there is a deadline, include the actual notice so the work and required document can be discussed together.
