Custom Deck and Porch Renovation in Melrose
Transforming a Melrose Porch
When our team at New England Painting and Contracting arrived at this charming Melrose, MA property, we knew exactly what was needed to breathe new life into its aging exterior features. The homeowner reached out to us with concerns about rotting wood railings and deteriorating trim work that had succumbed to New England's harsh weather conditions over the years. As specialists in
deck building
and repair, along with comprehensive
porch construction services, we were well-equipped to handle this renovation project.
The Challenge
The existing wooden railings and trim had significant rot damage, creating both aesthetic and safety concerns. As a local Melrose carpenter with years of experience in porch replacement and stair replacement projects, we recognized the importance of not just fixing the immediate issues but implementing a long-term solution that would stand the test of time.
Our Solution
To ensure lasting durability and minimal maintenance requirements, we recommended:
- Replacing the old wooden railings with premium Timber Tech railings
- Upgrading all rotting wood trim with weather-resistant PVC trim
- Thorough preparation and painting of the existing decking
- Professional finishing of all trim work
The Transformation
Our experienced team began with a complete railing replacement, carefully removing the deteriorated wooden components. Drawing on our extensive experience in deck building and repair, we ensured every aspect of the project met our high standards for quality and durability. The new Timber Tech railings not only provide superior durability but also offer a sophisticated, modern appearance while maintaining the home's classic charm. The railing replacement was complemented by the installation of top-quality PVC trim, which offers exceptional resistance to moisture and requires minimal upkeep.
The Results
The transformation was remarkable. The new materials and expert craftsmanship have given this Melrose home:
- Enhanced curb appeal
- Improved safety features
- Reduced maintenance requirements
- Increased property value
- Long-lasting weather resistance
