Why Deck Inspections Matter

Coastal Living Demands Extra Protection

Golden Isles homeowners face unique challenges that other regions don't. Our inspections are designed specifically for coastal Georgia conditions.

Humidity & Moisture

Brunswick's high humidity accelerates wood rot and compromises structural integrity. We catch damage before it becomes dangerous.

Salt Air Corrosion

St. Simons Island's salt air attacks metal fasteners and hardware. Our inspections identify corrosion before structural failure.

Storm Exposure

Jekyll Island hurricanes and tropical storms stress deck structures. Post-storm inspections ensure your deck survived intact.

Code Compliance

Georgia building codes evolve. Many older decks don't meet current standards. We ensure your deck complies with local regulations.

Attachment Safety

The ledger board connection to your home is critical. Failed attachments are a leading cause of deck collapses—our specialty check.

Documentation

Receive detailed written reports for insurance claims, real estate transactions, or peace of mind. Professional documentation included.

Decking Dos & Don'ts

Essential safety guidelines every coastal Georgia homeowner should know. Learn what separates a safe deck from a dangerous one.

DO

  • Ensure proper ledger board attachment to your home with code-compliant bolts
  • Use code-required post depths and concrete footings below the frost line
  • Install 36"+ height railings with balusters spaced 4" apart max
  • Choose stainless steel or hot-dipped galvanized fasteners for coastal use
  • Schedule annual inspections for older decks, bi-annual near the coast

DON'T

  • Ignore signs of rot: soft spots, discoloration, or mushroom growth
  • Use regular nails or non-corrosive screws in salt-exposed areas
  • Allow ledger board to be attached with only nails or screws alone
  • Delay repairs on wobbly railings or loose stairs—these are hazards
  • Assume a deck is safe just because it looks good—structural issues hide
