7 Year Warranty on Craftsmanship & Labor

K7W is a local deck building company and contractor who serves the Chicago area and northwest suburbs. We are licensed and bonded and we do stand behind our services. Therefore, we offer a 7 year warranty on the installation of your new wood or composite deck.

Our warranty covers only the installation and craftsmanship on the services we have provided. Any warranties of materials would be covered by the manufacturer any composite materials used on your project. Unfortunately, there is no warranty on wood/lumber materials.

Due to your deck existing on the exterior of your home, it is exposed to the elements of nature 24/7 365 days of the year. Therefore, we are not able to warranty the condition of the materials used to construct your deck.

If we have constructed a new wood deck for you, or if we have repaired your existing wood deck, it is important to realize that proper maintenance of your wood materials is important. Proper maintenance of your wood materials can prolong the life of your wood deck.

Proper maintenance for a wood deck includes regular cleaning, sealing or staining, and inspections for any potential damage. This can help prevent rotting, warping, and splintering of the wood. It is also recommended to remove any debris such as leaves or snow from your deck to prevent moisture build-up which can lead to mold and mildew growth.

In addition to maintenance, it is important to use caution when using your wood deck. Heavy furniture or grills can cause dents and scratches on the surface of the wood. Using protective mats or pads can help prevent these damages.

If you have a composite deck, proper care should also be taken to ensure its longevity. Regular cleaning with soap and water can help remove any dirt or stains. It is important to avoid using harsh chemicals or pressure washers as they can damage the surface of the composite material.

Regular inspections should also be conducted on your composite deck to check for any potential damages, such as cracks or loose boards. These issues should be addressed and repaired promptly to prevent further damage.

Overall, proper maintenance and care is essential for both wood and composite decks in order to ensure their longevity and durability. K7W does offer ongoing maintenance, repair, staining and painting services that will help you protect your investment.

By following proper maintenance, you can enjoy your new deck for many years to come. Remember to consult with us if you have any questions or concerns regarding the maintenance of your deck.

Composite Decking

Investment in the Future of Your House

Composite decking offers a durable and low-maintenance alternative to traditional wood decking materials. Made from a blend of wood fibers and recycled plastic, composite decking is engineered to withstand the elements, resisting rot, decay, and insect damage. Its uniform appearance and wide range of colors provide homeowners with versatile design options to complement any outdoor space. Unlike wood decking, composite boards do not require staining, sealing, or painting, saving both time and money on maintenance. Additionally, composite decking is eco-friendly, as it utilizes recycled materials and doesn’t contribute to deforestation. With its longevity and resilience, composite decking offers an attractive and sustainable solution for creating beautiful outdoor living areas.

Natural Wood Decking

Lower Initial Cost, Maintenance is Required

Natural wood decking is a great option for those looking for a lower cost option in comparison to composite decking. While composite decking may have some advantages such as being low-maintenance, natural wood decking has its own benefits that make it an appealing choice for many homeowners. While wood is usually cheaper than composite, but pressure-treated lumber also has maintenance costs associated with this type of material. It will need to be treated regularly with a water sealant or stain to protect it from the elements and to maintain its appearance.

One advantage of using natural wood decking is its versatility in design options. Unlike composite decking which often has limited color and texture choices, natural wood decking comes in a variety of species such as cedar, redwood, and pine with different grain patterns and textures. This allows homeowners to create a unique look that complements their style and enhances the overall appearance of their outdoor space. K7W Deck Building is a local contractor that repair your old wood deck, or install a new wooden deck at you home or business.
