Focused waterfront craftsmanship

Practical solutions for aging residential piers.

We help Hampton Roads homeowners extend the useful life, improve the safety and restore the appearance of their piers.

Our focus is re-decking, selective board and accessible framing repairs, cleaning, staining and rope railing—not piling installation or engineered structural work. You receive a straightforward assessment of what should be repaired, what can remain and how to protect your investment.

01

Pier Re-Decking

Replace worn decking with properly selected, installed and spaced materials suited for waterfront exposure.

02

Selective Repairs

Target deteriorated deck boards and accessible framing when a complete rebuild is unnecessary.

03

Pressure Washing

Remove algae, dirt and weathering with a careful cleaning process appropriate for the surface.

04

Marine-Grade Staining

Protect wood from intense sun, moisture and the demanding conditions of Hampton Roads waterways.

05

Traditional and Rope Rail Installation

Add a classic waterfront railing with durable posts, clean alignment and careful finishing.

Sun, salt, moisture and changing tides are hard on waterfront structures. These quick guides help homeowners recognize common warning signs and make informed maintenance decisions.

5-minute guide

Five signs your pier may need attention

Loose boards, raised fasteners, soft spots, movement and uneven framing are all reasons to schedule a closer look.

Maintenance note

Cleaning and staining: when each matters

Cleaning restores appearance; a suitable finish can help slow weathering and moisture absorption.

Planning tip

Repair, re-deck or replace?

The right choice depends on the condition of the decking, accessible framing, pilings and connections—not age alone.
