This homeowner’s previous deck failed catastrophically due to an unexpected pool overflow.
To rebuild safely and prevent future damage, we combined three key structural solutions: a retaining wall, framing for a new deck, and a pipe-and-board system.
We began by stabilizing the slope with a retaining wall engineered for proper drainage to manage water and reduce soil pressure. Just below the wall, we installed a row of pipe & board—an extra layer of protection designed to resist soil movement over time.
Finally, we rebuilt the deck above, securely tying it into the new wall for lasting strength and stability. This time, it’s built to handle the terrain and any future challenges.
