Deck Replacement - Summer 2005


dMk Builders -
The original deck was to small and frost was heaving the end because of the foundation it was built on. dMk Builders designed and constructed this new deck from the ground up. The big challenge was to install the concrete bases with enough crushed stone around them so the water didn't pool up under ground and heave this deck. The lower end is only 25 feet from the lakes edge so we couldn't dig down 4 feet below the frost line. once the concrete was in place we constructed a deck large enough to accommodate the many guest that would frequent this property yet we needed to allow room for access to the septic tank clean out located near the front cantilever. This new spacious deck was finished off with cedar flooring, turned cedar balusters, turned cedar newels, and cedar hand rails. The deck fit the area, it is the right size for the guest, and is structurally sound. Our customer couldn't wait to show his new deck to friends and family. dMk Builders was quite pleased with this project and the challenges it brought.
