Do you own a deck? If so, you probably love using it to entertain guests, host summer barbecues, or enjoy the weather.

If your deck needs some repairs and TLC, don’t hesitate to contact us at TrueDecks.
At TrueDecks, we provide high-quality deck repair services to homeowners in Gaithersburg, MD & surrounding areas. Our professional deck repair experts can repair your deck, making it look beautiful and new again.
Common Deck Issues We Repair
Your deck can take a beating over time, as it constantly experiences intense heat, rain, snow, and wind. Even if you live in a more mild climate, your deck will eventually need repairing or replacing because of these factors.
Not sure if your deck needs repair? Here’s a list of common deck issues we tackle for Gaithersburg property owners:
- Cracked wood: Cracked wood often occurs due to water damage and sun exposure. Cracked wood planks may completely break, so we replace individual boards as needed.
- Loose support posts: The support posts that keep decks standing can become loose over time. We’ll resecure them to keep you and your family safe on the deck.
- Rotten boards and handrails: Deck floorboards and handrails may rot away, leading your deck to need deck board replacement.
- Moving or sagging floorboards: Loose floorboards pose a serious safety risk. They usually occur due to water damage or faulty construction.
- Broken support posts: Damage from wood rot can damage deck support posts and put the rest of your deck at risk. We’ll repair the posts to keep your deck structurally sound.
If you’re dealing with these deck issues, leave it to our experts at TrueDecks. We’ll repair any deck damage for you.
Deck Post Repair and Replacement
Deck posts are the most likely part of a deck to break.
Have you inspected your deck posts recently? If they’re broken or rotting, it’s time to call us for repair. These vertical posts elevate your deck off the ground but wear down over time due to weather and wood rot.
Some homeowners install elevated deck posts to prevent water damage. However, such decks depend on the posts set in the ground below the soil. If you live in a rainy area, your home is particularly susceptible to water damage.
If you’ve noticed damaged deck posts, you shouldn’t try to fix them on your own. DIY repairs may damage the rest of the deck, putting you and your loved ones at risk. Instead, contact us at TrueDecks! We’ll make sure your deck is safe and secure, repairing and replacing any damaged deck posts.
Should I Repair or Replace My Deck?
Our deck services fall into two categories: deck replacement services and deck repair services. But how do you know if your deck needs a few repairs or a partial or complete replacement?
When we come out for your appointment, we’ll assess your deck from the top to bottom to diagnose all the damage. We’ll let you know whether repair or replacement is the best option for your deck.
Repairs make sense in situations when your deck is fairly new and only needs a few specific repairs. Even then, while replacing deck posts and boards might not seem too expensive, over time, these costs can add up to be around the price of an entire new deck.
Even if part of your deck is still in good condition, it may suffer structural issues in the near future. For decks over ten years old, replacement may be the safest, most cost-effective option.

Deck Repairs Big and Small
Even the best decks start to show signs of wear and tear over the years. With time, wooden boards begin to rot, crack and loosen. These seemingly small issues can become serious safety hazards. Larger damages from accidents or natural disasters occasionally happen and require larger repairs. No matter how severe the damage to your deck is, TrueDecks can help.
Common repairs include replacing boards, reinforcing boards/railings, strengthening of structural supports, and can typically be done at an affordable price due to our price match guarantee. Our technicians are licensed and insured to do deck repairs in Maryland and Virginia. When it comes to damaged decks, we’ve seen it all. We’ll make your deck look like it did when it was first built– or even better. In some cases, we may find that the best route is to build a new deck or resurface it. Resurfacing your deck includes using the foundation of your current deck and replacing the boards and railings with composite Trex boards or another wooden material. Either way, you can feel confident that your deck is in good hands with TrueDecks.
See What Our Clients Say
Elizabeth Rabin They did an excellent job. I would definitely recommend them. They were a pleasure to work with. Jason Lee For years, and at two different houses, I used TrueDecks to seal my back deck and I was a very happy customer. They always did great work. But this past Fall, I engaged them to (1) replace my back deck with a new one, and (2) repair and extend the bricked floor of my carport underneath my deck. Both projects came out absolutely fantastic--I'm thrilled with the results and so happy that I used TrueDecks to complete the work. They have a great team and the finished product is so, so worth it. I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone in the area who's thinking of redoing a deck and areas around the deck. Paul Mannes The Team and Service Desk for TrueDecks have been very easy to work with and be sensitive to our requirements. The work was done per our agreed upon schedule and the on-site team with easy to communicate with and skilled. All in all, a project planned and executed to our approval. Thank you TrueDecks. Mary Eng True Decks did an excellent job in replacing my balcony deck. They were professional, efficient, and methodical in their work. Their work is stellar and I would not hesitate to recommend them if you need any type of deck work or repair. Ellen Schaefer-Salins TrueDecks took down a 60 year old deck and made a beautiful new and larger deck for my home. They do quality work and were responsive to a few communication issues. I would recommend them to others! ramiro Excellent work! Absolutely recommend!!! Matt Watkins I felt as though I could have a respectful conversation with a knowledgeable deck contractor about what I needed, and then the price was right. Lori Burge We hired TrueDecks after my friend referred us. We had them power wash the house and deck which was done very well. Today we had technician Selvin replace 5 rotted post. My husband built our deck 27 years ago and he is very picky about who works on it. After Selvin was done my husband was beaming. Selvin did an exceptional job. The last piece of this work will come later this week with the final staining of our deck. At this rate I'm sure the deck will look new. We have been extremely please with all the work from TrueDecks so far. I can't wait for the stain to be completed so I can enjoy my new 27 year old outside room. Thank you TrueDecks. Sara Ahlgren TrueDecks really came through after a storm damaged half of the railings of my back deck. They not only replaced the railings, they improved them but in a fashion that didn't look out of place with the remaining railings. They also powerwashed and stained the whole deck so it doesn't look obviously repaired.
