Most companies show up, slap on a coat of stain, and call it restored. That's not what we do. Our process is thorough because Chicago decks need more than a surface-level fix — they need real attention at every layer.
Step 1
We walk every inch — checking boards, joists, ledger boards, posts, and railings for rot, instability, or damage.
Step 2
We deep clean all deck surfaces to strip dirt, mold, and old flaking finishes before any restoration begins.
Step 3
Every plank gets checked individually — warped, split, or rotted boards are flagged for replacement before we go further.
Step 4
Bad boards come out. New matching lumber goes in — properly secured, flush, and ready for finishing.
Step 5
All surfaces are sanded smooth to open the wood grain, ensuring the stain or sealant bonds properly and lasts longer.
Step 6
We apply your chosen finish evenly — whether a natural wood tone, solid color stain, or clear weatherproofing sealant.
Step 7
Every railing post, baluster, and connection point is tightened, reinforced, or replaced — safety is not optional.
Step 8
Before we pack up, we walk the entire restored deck with you. You approve it. We're not done until you're satisfied.

If you're looking for someone who is skilled trustworthy and genuinely takes pride in his work look no further than Near Me Handyman Services. I hired Michael for what turned out to be a significant room transformation, new flooring installation, full painting while reconstruction, laid carpet going to the second floor and some other options and I could not be more pleased with the results. The floor is alone are stunning. The installation was clean, precise and level, not a creek not a gap not a single corner out. He clearly knows what he's doing and does not rush the process. Painting was equally impressive. The lines are chris, the coverage is smooth and even and was meticulous about prep work which as any homeowner knows, is what separates a beautiful paint job from one that peels and fades. My walls of professionally done because they were. The wall reconstruction work was where they really distinguished themselves. The kind of work requires both technical skill and a good eye, and Near Me Handyman has both. You would never know there had been any damage or reconstruction at all because everything Blends seamlessly. On top of the quality of his work, they was on time, respectful of my home, cleaned up after and communicated clearly throughout the entire project. The unexpected little things that always come up in home projects were handled without complaint and without nickel and diming me. My first floor looks brand new and now I'm ready to tackle the rest of my home. I recommend Near Me Handyman Services without any hesitation to anyone who wants quality work done right the first time. I also want to give a shout out to Hailey in the office. She provides excellent customer service and it's obvious that she knows the business very well and is there to help. Kudos Hailey!
