EXTREME DECKS CAN
DESIGN IT

REFINISH IT
FIX IT
SAFETY FIRST!
Some softwoods are treated with preservatives and contain toxic chemicals. These preservatives are necessary, especially if the lumber will be in contact with soil (such as posts). There are some chemicals that have been phased out by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. If you suspect that your deck was built with wood treated with CCA (chromated copper arsenate), please consider replacing that deck. If your deck was built before 2002, call us for a free evaluation.
