This 2 time previous customer had us come out and remove and replace the existing side landing for their home.

After the landing was removed we built with pressure treated lumber a new landing in the same configuration.

New vinyl railings were installed on the landing and stairs as well as new PVC accent boards covering the band and toe kicks for a white maintenance free appearance.

The top photo is the existing landing that was built when the home was constructed. Years of weather and no maintenance made this front deck landing a hazard for the home owner and guests to enter the home via this entrance.

The bottom photo is  the newly installed deck landing that replaced the original deck that was a safety hazard. The new deck landing was built with pressure treated lumber. All local and state permits were filed for and inspections passed.
