Deck Repair, Refinishing, and Outdoor Projects
Deck restoration, fence fixes, and outbuilding removal for Troy properties.
A deck that gets used from April through October takes a serious beating. Our deck and fence repair services restore it without the cost of a rebuild. We replace cracked, cupped, or rotted boards, reinforce loose railings and balusters, and repair or rebuild stairs. We check ledger connections and post bases for movement, then clean and refinish the surface with a stain or sealer suited to the wood. Fence work includes replacing posts, rails, and pickets and rehanging gates. When an old shed, playset, or deteriorated deck section needs to go, we handle the non-structural demolition so the space is ready for what comes next. Indoors, our team takes on drywall repair, trim carpentry, appliance and fixture installation, small plumbing and electrical tasks, and furniture assembly.
"Every job gets the same attention to detail — whether it's one repair or a full honey-do list."

Our Approach
Worth the Call, Big List or Small
Some Troy homeowners have a full weekend of outdoor projects lined up. Others have one cracked deck board. Both get the same attention, because we gladly take on small jobs. When the list is longer, our convenient, one-stop approach rolls deck repairs, fence fixes, and indoor items into one coordinated plan. That works because our versatile handyman expertise covers outdoor carpentry, demolition, drywall, installation, and maintenance. Interior and exterior projects are equally in our wheelhouse, which matters on properties where the yard demands as much attention as the house. Troy sits farther from our Belleville base than some communities, but it falls well inside our 50-mile service area, and we serve it as part of our regular local territory, not an afterthought.
Your Questions Answered
Should I repair my existing deck or replace it with a new one?
If the posts, beams, and joists are solid, replacing damaged boards, tightening railings, and refinishing the surface can add many years of use for a fraction of the cost of a new deck. Replacement makes more sense when framing is rotted, the ledger connection to the house is failing, or most boards are deteriorated beyond repair.
Can a handyman tear down and haul away an old backyard shed?
Small, non-structural sheds are a common demolition job. The work includes emptying the shed, confirming any wiring is safely disconnected by a qualified professional, dismantling the roof and walls, and removing the floor or base. Talk through debris disposal before the job starts. Concrete slabs and sheds on permanent foundations may need additional equipment or a separate contractor.
How do I protect a wood deck through an Illinois winter?
Clear leaves and debris before winter, because trapped moisture encourages rot and mildew. Make sure the surface is sealed so water beads instead of soaking in and expanding when it freezes. Use a plastic shovel, avoid harsh rock salt, and fix loose boards or railings in the fall so freeze-thaw cycles do not make them worse.
