A deck is a structure before it is a surface. Footings, ledger attachment, joist spacing and hardware are what determine whether it is still solid in fifteen years — and they are all invisible once the boards go down. Which is exactly why they are where corners get cut.
Southern Solutions builds decks and porches from the footings up, with framing and connections done properly, then finishes with a surface that suits how you actually plan to use the space.
Send a photo and a sentence about the problem. Most of the time we can tell you roughly what is involved before anyone drives out.
Footings, ledger flashing and joist hardware get done right — the parts nobody sees are the parts that fail.
Treated wood versus composite is a budget-and-maintenance conversation, not an upsell. You get the real trade-offs.
Grading, clearing and drainage under the deck are part of the same job, not somebody else's problem.
Composite costs more up front and saves you the staining and sealing cycle; it will not rot or splinter. Treated wood costs less and looks great maintained, but it is a genuine recurring chore. Both are legitimate — it depends on your budget and how much upkeep you want to sign up for.
Sometimes. If the framing, ledger and footings are sound, resurfacing is a good value. We inspect the structure first and tell you plainly if the frame is not worth building back on.
Often yes, depending on your jurisdiction, deck height and whether it attaches to the house. We will tell you what your local requirements look like before work starts.
A straightforward single-level deck is typically a matter of days once materials are on site. Multi-level builds, complex railings and heavy site prep extend that. You get a realistic timeline with the quote.
