Salem Wooden Deck

Date: May 2022Location: Salem, ORCategory: Residential In our first consultation, the client showed me that his back deck was unsafe because of weathering over the years. He asked us to build the ‘last deck’ he would ever need. We started by dismantling and hauling away the entire previous deck, railing and structure. We then built a new structure using pressure treated lumber. We used full synthetic decking which lasts decades with no maintenance. Instead of railing, our client asked for a continuous step on 3 sides of the new deck.

Salem Staircase

Date: March 2022Location: Salem, ORCategory: Residential This job was fairly straightforward in terms of creating a safe staircase baluster, as there was no safety rail or baluster previously. We got the call because the client wanted to replace their carpeted stairs with oak to match the upstairs flooring. In addition, they wanted a bespoke, custom baluster to fit in with their immaculate Mid Century Modern style. Working with them to select the wood species, stain color and design was a pleasure. We sourced slab cherry wood, which we milled to custom thickness. We then finished, stained, clear coated, assembled and installed the baluster.
