Part One: Initial Consultation

When Eric reached out to RenoVista, all he had in mind was a simple window replacement. However, once the team got started on the task, far more serious damage than what was visible came to light…

Upon close inspection, the deck connected to the house was discovered to be actively failing and pulling away. The damage was so extensive that it immediately called for a careful removal and replacement intervention.

After identifying the urgent deck damage, we at the RenoVista team communicated transparently with Eric. Together, we quickly developed a plan to assess the unexpected damage and restore the family’s safety and peace of mind in their outdoor space.

Some of the challenges with their deck included…

The old deck, steadily detaching from the house, made the project a high-priority repair.
The crew had to be extra careful when approaching the unsafe decking area during the project.
During the deck demolition, the team had to use very strategic dismantling methods to ensure safety.
Once the deck was removed, the damage was revealed to extend into the home’s framing, with added risks.
The crew repaired and rebuilt the affected wall framing and restored the exterior siding.

Part Two: Design And Construction

The top priority for the project, upon uncovering the hazard the deteriorated deck posed to the family’s safety, was carefully removing the old deck from the home while minimizing damage as much as possible.

The repairs to the affected wall framing were next on the list to ensure proper support for the new deck. Eric’s project was approached as a high-risk deck rescue, requiring careful handling and attention to detail throughout all stages of construction.

Josh and his team are knowledgeable and great to work with. We have worked with him twice since 2020. In 2020, Josh and his team replaced both the front and back deck and the sidings.

They just replaced my front door in July/August 2025. They have done a great job both times. Highly recommended this company 👍🏻

Worked with the RenoVista team to plan a deck to add to the back of our home and they were wonderful. They finished quickly and did a quality job. The deck is beautiful, highly recommend.
