    Steven quickly pinpointed the source of the water leak and made the necessary repairs with efficiency. In addition, he discovered another issue—a gas leak coming from my furnace. I’m extremely grateful for his thoroughness and expertise. Many thanks

    This was my first experience with Mr. Handyman….and it will certainly not be my last! <br /> I was prompted to consult Angie's list after receiving an estimate from another Handyman service (not on the list). The other service was very prompt and courteous at delivering the estimate….but the estimate was high enough for me to get another quote. I'm certainly glad I did! (One note…I haven't heard from the other service since…so much for followup!). <br /> With this Mr. Handyman franchisee (DBA D&M Ambinder LLC) every customer "touchpoint" (from estimate to follow-up call) was handled with professionalism and courtesy. Their pledge of "On Time…Done Right" was fulfilled…and then some. To that motto…you might even add "no surprises." The estimate was done the same day as my call. They measured the work area and (at my request) purchased all the materials for me to be sure everything would fit correctly. When scheduling changes necessitated a change in technician, I received a call to let me know the new person that would be entering my home. The labor estimate was right on the money…and the service tech (Dean) worked without break for four hours (despite my offer for coffee/water/food) to keep it as promised. One service tech…4 hrs from start to finish! (The other bid said it was a "2 person job"…and would take about 6 hrs). <br /> <br /> Dean made every effort was made to keep the work area clean. (When a member of the Handyman team enters your home…either for estimate or to do work… they wear foot coverings.) Dean covered the work area (my second floor landing) with tarps and thoroughly cleaned up after himself…disposing of the old door/ladder combo for me (a reasonable extra charge). He removed the molding around the door opening…and replaced and regrouted after installation and customization of the door and ladder to be sure things fit snugly. He had all the tools he needed. In short…the only surprise for me….was that there were no (unpleasant) surprises!!! <br /> Would highly recommend. <br /> <br /> <br />

    Couldn't be easier to work with. Scheduling the work was easy and the handyman himself was efficient with time, got the tasks done, and cleaned up any mess/materials there may have been.

    All the work was done professionally and complete. The technician who came, James, is a compliment to your organization, he was very nice and quite competent in all areas that were a concern. He left the job as neat as he had found it, all things put back where they had been. In fact, if you did not know work had been done, you would have never known he was here at all. Very pleased all the way around, and using Angies List reassures me that only reliable people will show up to do the work.

    Robert is an expert when it comes to drywall. He transformed our very unsafe basement stairs into a beautiful stairway that looks like it was always there. We are thrilled with Robert's craftsmanship. It was not an easy job given the tread overhang, but Robert came up with a way to make it work. Worth every penny!

    I could not be happier with my experience with this company. From the moment I contacted them, everyone I spoke to was helpful, professional, and nice. Anne, who helped me figure out what I needed and schedule the work, was such a nice person that I instantly felt as though I was calling friends to help me rather than hiring strangers. The company was able to schedule the work I needed done for the very next day, even though it wasn't an emergency at all. Michael was the gentleman that arrived to do the actual work and was fantastic. He discussed all of the projects with me, helped with things he really didn't need to help with (light bulbs, clean up, etc.), was a really nice and friendly person, and did a beautiful job on everything. He was even patient and tolerant with my excitable dog. Yes, the work was a little on the expensive side (though within the normal bounds – it took 5 hours of work and they provided some of the parts in addition to labor costs), but entirely worth it. I know I will call this company again if anything comes up. Thanks guys!

Frequently Asked Questions About Deck Repair

Mr. Handyman has been helping homeowners and businesses repair, maintain, and enhance their spaces for over 25 years! We are the one-stop solution for everything on your to-do list. This includes answering your questions about home repairs, maintenance, and improvements. Here are answers to some of your most frequently asked questions about deck repair and deck installation.

  • The cost of repairing a deck often depends on deck size, materials, and the condition of the structure. Small repairs such as replacing damaged boards or tightening railings typically require less work than full deck restoration. If the damage reaches the framing or support posts, deck repair usually becomes more complex. Rot, water damage, or shifting footings may require structural repairs or replacing sections of the deck. If the same repairs keep returning, the deck may have a deeper issue. Soft decking or railings that loosen again often indicate moisture within the framing. Continuing surface level deck repair may become more expensive than correcting the structure. Pricing for deck repair is often determined during an on-site evaluation. A service professional in Raritan will assess the deck, explain possible repair or replacement options, and describe the project scope.

  • In some cases, homeowners insurance may cover deck repair, but it depends on the cause of the damage rather than the repair itself. For example, damage caused by storms, fallen trees, fire, vandalism, or vehicle impact is often covered. Because decks are usually considered part of the home’s structure or an attached feature, insurance may help pay for repairs or replacement after the deductible. Damage caused by normal wear and tear or poor maintenance usually isn’t covered. Problems such as rotting boards, loose railings, aging connectors, or moisture damage are typically considered maintenance issues. If you’re unsure whether the damage qualifies for coverage, a written inspection can help when speaking with your insurance provider. Notes about damaged boards, loose railings, or structural framing can clarify whether deck repair or deck replacement may be necessary.

  • Replacing a single damaged board may seem manageable. Many deck repair projects involve more than surface materials. Framing, ledger boards, and support posts carry significant weight and require secure attachment to function properly. Improper fastening or misaligned supports can create long term structural problems. Decks connect directly to the home’s structure. Incorrect repairs near ledger boards or flashing can allow water intrusion and accelerate rot behind siding. Surface damage can hide larger problems beneath the boards. Soft decking often points to moisture in the joists below. Replacing boards without checking the framing can leave structural problems unresolved. Professional deck repair services review the framing, install hardware correctly, and follow code requirements. A qualified deck repair handyman can help address structural concerns and extend the life of the existing deck.

  • Different deck contractors structure their work in different ways. Some operate alone, some use rotating crews, and others focus mainly on new construction. The overall service experience often depends on who completes the work and how projects are managed. With Mr. Handyman, deck repair, deck refinishing, deck installation, and deck replacement are completed through a locally owned business that is licensed and insured. Homeowners work with highly-trained service professionals who handle a range of projects around the home. Scheduling and communication are handled through an established system. Your Mr. Handyman service team supports homeowners throughout Raritan. Licensed professionals arrive in branded vehicles and follow a defined service process for each project. Work is coordinated through an organized scheduling system. Clear procedures guide how deck repair services are reviewed, planned, and completed. The Done Right Promise® represents the service standards followed across Neighborly home service brands. Professional accountability and customer support reinforce the overall service experience. Homeowners work with local service providers supported by a national organization.

  • Many decks benefit from refinishing every two to three years. Sunlight and moisture slowly break down the protective sealant applied to the wood. As the sealant wears away, boards become more vulnerable to water absorption and surface deterioration. Yearly deck inspections help reveal minor issues before they worsen. Small cracks, loose railings, or soft boards can often be corrected through repair services. Environmental conditions often determine how frequently deck restoration is needed. Seasonal weather cycles gradually wear down decking materials. Establishing a maintenance plan with a local deck builder in Raritan helps support predictable upkeep and reduces the likelihood of unexpected deck replacement.
