Get Your Deck Ready for Summer with Deck Post Repair Southwest Marietta, GA
deck posts settling

A well-maintained deck is the perfect spot for summer gatherings, offering a place to relax and entertain. However, if your deck has sinking posts or leaning support columns, it may no longer be safe or level. Over time, deck posts can settle into the ground, compromising the stability of your deck. At Anglin’s Foundation & Masonry Repairs in Atlanta, GA, we provide expert deck post repair services to ensure your deck is secure and ready for summer activities.

Why Do Deck Posts Settle?

Deck posts and support columns are essential structural components that bear the weight of your deck. Unfortunately, these supports can begin to sink or settle due to several factors, including:

  • Soil Erosion: Heavy rains and poor drainage can wash away the soil beneath deck posts, causing the footings to shift.
  • Inadequate Footings: Posts that were not installed with deep, stable footings are more susceptible to settling over time.
  • Soil Compression: Over time, soil beneath the posts can compress under the weight of the deck, leading to uneven settling.
  • Seasonal Changes: Fluctuations in temperature and moisture levels can cause the ground to expand and contract, affecting the stability of deck supports.

When deck posts settle or lean, it can result in an unlevel deck, making it unsafe for use. You may notice signs such as wobbly railings, gaps between deck boards, or a visible tilt in the structure. Ignoring these issues can lead to further damage and increase the risk of accidents.

The Importance of Deck Post Repair

A stable deck is essential for both safety and aesthetic appeal. Repairing deck posts promptly can prevent further structural problems and restore your deck’s integrity. Some of the key benefits of professional deck post repair include:

  • Enhanced Safety: Correcting leaning or sinking posts ensures that your deck can safely support the weight of people, furniture, and outdoor equipment.
  • Improved Stability: By addressing foundational issues, you can prevent future shifts that could compromise your deck’s structure.
  • Prolonged Deck Lifespan: Regular maintenance and timely repairs help extend the life of your deck, protecting your investment.

Tammy S.

From start to finish, everyone at Anglin's was amazing! Gus was responsive, always answered his phone, knowledgeable, professional, honest and fair. He went above and beyond to make a stressful situation less stressful. Scheduling was a breeze and the crew that arrived on the job (on time, I might add) were courteous, respectful and efficient. They allowed me to watch and take pictures, and explained the process step-by-step, as well as what results were to be expected. Iggy was so knowledgeable, professional and amazing. He was able to pin point a problem that 2 other competing companies couldn't explain or relay in layman's terms what needed to be done and why. He was an absolute superstar in easing the mind of the buyers purchasing the house. His 27 years experience was so valuable. Shelly was quick to send paid invoices and warranty information. Everyone did an amazing job and I would recommend them highly.

I cannot say enough good things about GUS at Anglin’s Foundation and Masonry! GUS, was fast and gave a free estimate on raising, reattaching and fixing my brick stairs. I will be sure to post before and after photos! Thank you GUS for your no nonsense, straight forward approach! Thank you for listening to me! The Greensmith’s

Regina Renee Kalasz

Today was a install of a 2nd beam for our house... first one was easy, 2nd one gave them a run for their money. But they stuck it out and got it done! Awesome work! I'd throw a + behind my 5 stars if I could. Sorry I held your crew up, but they were determined to get it done with no issues. So shout out to your team Chris, Leo and Dan!

Scott Lapin

The team that lifted our chimney was prompt, courteous and efficient. Other then the repair, you simply could not tell they were even there despite the fact they had to remove part of our deck to do the work. I would HIGHLY recommend them.

Melissa Reed

Diagnosis and estimate from a picture, arrived as scheduled, done in just a couple hours and results were absolutely amazing. Price, workmanship, clean up - everything was absolutely 5 star!! Highly recommend these folks!!! I must add, 2 other well known and much advertised companies came out and estimated 6x the work and price, claiming we had more issues than what was actually going on. These guys call it like it is - honesty and integrity are hard to find in construction.

Dana Brennan

This crew is top notch. Worked with the office and mainly with Gus on site who was great. Showed up early, super knowledgeable, tons of experience. We really felt served in the way he recommended only what needed to be done and at a great price. Had another company wanting to add in other extras and unnecessary work. HIGHLY recommend Anglin!!

Aaron Gray

Quick to call back and totally honest. I wasn't sure if I had a foundation issue or a flooring issue but after a few questions, Nathan helped to figure out that it thankfully wasn't a foundation issue. Insteand of trying to sell me a job, Nathan helped me to make a good decision. I hope I never have foundation issues but if I do, this is the company I'm hiring.

Jake Herman

Another masonry contractor referred us to Anglin because we had a concern about the structural integrity of our chimneys. We were told that they were the best people to talk to. I called them and they actually came by to assess my house within two hours. Although I was fully prepared to spend a lot of money to stabilize my chimneys, he did a full assessment and very honestly told me that my chimneys were fine and just needed some caulking where the mortar met the brick. I greatly respect his expertise and honesty and would recommend him without reservation.
