25-Year-Old Cedar Deck Restored in Newcastle

This 25-year-old cedar deck in Newcastle had seen better days — with significant rot in the deck boards and signs of instability in the framing. The homeowners reached out to Rot Doctor for help restoring safety, structure, and beauty to their outdoor space.

After a prompt and professional estimate from Vitaliy, our lead carpenter Alex was assigned to the project. Alex brought years of experience and attention to detail to every phase of the repair:

✅ Replaced all rotted cedar boards

✅ Extended joists to stabilize and reinforce the deck’s structure

✅ Re-secured existing rails and posts for improved safety

✅ Performed full waterproofing to help prevent future rot

The project was completed within a week, and the transformation was both structural and aesthetic. The homeowners were especially impressed with Alex's craftsmanship, professionalism, and deep knowledge of deck construction.

“Alex did a very professional job and went above and beyond to make sure everything was solid and safe. We’re extremely happy with the results and highly recommend Rot Doctor for any deck project!”
