Town and Country homes and this kind of project
Because Town and Country is made up of estate homes ranging from mid-century ranches to new custom builds, the first thing we check for a deck repair here is the ledger, hanger fasteners, post bases and every guard post.
The housing stock here: estate homes from mid-century ranches to new custom construction on lots of an acre or more.
Hardwood decks on larger homes need specialist oiling, not film finishes.
Lots, exteriors and approvals in Town and Country
Pavilions, pool houses, screened porches and additions. Tree protection and stormwater rules are strict, and we plan site access with them in mind.
Outdoor living in Town and Country means structures with presence: timber pavilions, stone fireplaces, screened rooms with retractable panels and multi-level terraces on sloping lots. Architectural review is usually demanding, and we prepare complete submittals.
What is included
For Town and Country homeowners preparing to sell, we correct the deck items that home inspectors write up most: loose guards, missing hanger fasteners, ungraspable stair rails and unflashed ledgers.
We take on deck repair work in and around estates along Mason, Clayton and Conway roads.
What we watch for
Over-aggressive pressure washing has furred up a lot of deck boards in Town and Country. We use low pressure and chemistry instead, and sand where a previous wash did damage.
Town and Country properties tend to be acre-plus lots with protected trees, and that affects how we stage materials, where a carpenter and a finisher park and how debris leaves the site.
Permits and approvals in Town and Country
In Town and Country, a deck repair is reviewed by the City of Town and Country, with permits coordinated through St. Louis County. What follows is an inspection only when structure, stairs or guards are rebuilt.
Since this work shows from outside, also plan on the city's architectural review and strict site rules. We prepare that submittal alongside the permit.
Schedule and getting to you
Most Town and Country clients see one to four days plus drying weather of construction for a deck repair.
Town and Country is straight down I-64 to the I-270 area, about thirty-five minutes from our Wentzville base. We plan crew days and deliveries around that drive so you get full working days on site.
What our deck repair & refinishing looks like
Photographs from jobs we have built. We do not label photographs by town, so these may or may not be near Town and Country; they are here so you can judge the standard of finish before we meet.
What moves the price in Town and Country
We price deck repair & refinishing in Town and Country from a site visit, not a square-foot figure. These are the items that change the number.
- Linear feet of railing to rebuild.
- Deck size and height for refinishing.

Our step-by-step method for this work, and the factors that move its price, are laid out on the main deck repair & refinishing page. More about the area is on our Town and Country page.
Deck Repair & Refinishing in Town and Country: common questions
How long does a deck repair take in Town and Country?
Repairs take one to four days. For Town and Country we group trade visits to keep that schedule tight despite the drive.
Do I need approval beyond a permit for a deck repair in Town and Country?
Possibly. In Town and Country you may be dealing with the city's architectural review and strict site rules. City or county approval and private approval are separate, and we prepare both submittals and wait for written approval before ordering materials.
My railing wobbles. Is that serious?
Yes. It is the most common deck injury cause after ledger failure. Usually it is fixed with blocking and structural screws or through-bolts.
