Your deck should be where memories happen, not where you worry about safety. When boards are loose, railings wobble, or sections sag, your outdoor space becomes a liability instead of an asset.
We fix the problems that matter. Structural issues get addressed with proper materials and techniques that last. Cosmetic damage gets repaired so your deck looks like new again.
You’ll have a space that’s safe for family gatherings, sturdy enough for outdoor furniture, and attractive enough to boost your home’s value. No more avoiding certain areas or warning guests about “that loose board.”
Home Team Construction has been serving Coram and Long Island homeowners for years. We’re the contractors people call back – not because something went wrong, but because they trust us with their next project.
We’re HomeAdvisor prescreened, fully licensed and insured. More importantly, we show up when we say we will and finish when we promise to finish.
Long Island weather is tough on decks. Salt air, freeze-thaw cycles, and summer heat create unique challenges that require local expertise. We know what works here and what doesn’t.
First, we inspect every inch of your deck to identify all issues – not just the obvious ones. We check structural integrity, look for hidden rot, and assess what can be repaired versus what needs replacement.
Next, we explain exactly what needs to be done and why. No surprises, no upselling. You’ll understand the scope before we start and know what to expect throughout the process.
Then we get to work with quality materials and proven techniques. We protect your landscaping, work efficiently, and clean up completely when we’re done. You’ll have a deck that’s safe, attractive, and built to handle Long Island’s climate for years to come.

We handle every type of deck repair Coram homeowners need. Wood deck board replacement for warped, cracked, or rotted planks. Composite deck repair for damaged synthetic materials. Deck railing repair and replacement for safety and style.
Structural deck repair addresses the foundation issues that compromise your deck’s integrity. We fix sagging joists, reinforce posts, and ensure your deck meets current building codes. Deck stair repair keeps your entry and exit points safe and stable.
For older decks, we provide comprehensive inspections that identify potential problems before they become dangerous. Whether your deck needs minor fixes or major restoration, we have the expertise to handle it properly the first time.
Look for signs like bouncing when you walk, visible sagging in the deck surface, or posts that seem loose or wobbly. These indicate structural problems that need immediate attention for safety reasons.
Cosmetic issues include surface scratches, faded staining, or individual loose boards that don’t affect the overall stability. During our inspection, we’ll clearly explain which problems are structural versus cosmetic.
We always address safety issues first. A deck that looks good but isn’t structurally sound is dangerous for your family and guests.
Individual boards can often be repaired if the damage is minor – small cracks, surface wear, or loose fasteners. We can sand, refinish, or re-secure these boards to extend their life.
Replacement becomes necessary when boards are severely warped, rotted, or split beyond repair. We match new boards to your existing deck as closely as possible for a seamless appearance.
The decision depends on the extent of damage and the age of your deck. Sometimes replacing a few boards is more cost-effective than trying to repair extensively damaged ones.
Simple railing repairs like tightening loose balusters or replacing a few spindles usually take half a day. More extensive repairs involving post replacement or entire railing sections can take 1-2 days.
The timeline depends on the extent of damage, the type of materials, and whether we need to match existing styles. We’ll give you a specific timeframe after inspecting your deck.
We work efficiently to minimize disruption to your daily routine while ensuring the repair is done properly and safely.
We repair both wood and composite decking materials. Composite deck repair requires different techniques and materials than wood, but we’re experienced with all major composite brands including Trex, TimberTech, and Azek.
Composite repairs often involve replacing damaged boards rather than trying to patch them. The good news is that composite materials are designed for easier replacement than traditional wood.
We keep common composite materials in stock and can usually match your existing deck color and texture for seamless repairs.
Minor repairs like replacing a few boards or tightening railings typically don’t require permits. However, structural repairs, railing replacements, or modifications that change the deck’s footprint usually do.
We’re familiar with Coram’s building codes and permit requirements. We’ll let you know if permits are needed and can help you obtain them if required.
It’s always better to check than to assume. Unpermitted work can create problems when you sell your home or file insurance claims.
Deck stair repair costs vary based on the extent of damage and the type of repair needed. Simple fixes like securing loose steps or replacing a single tread are less expensive than rebuilding entire stair sections.
Factors that affect cost include the number of steps, the materials used, and whether structural support needs to be repaired or replaced. We provide detailed estimates that break down all costs.
Most stair repairs are more affordable than homeowners expect, especially when addressed early before problems worsen and require more extensive work.
