Complete Deck Services
From New Builds To Repairs And Upgrades
Strife Management LLC provides comprehensive deck services, including new deck construction, repairs, resurfacing, board replacement, stair rebuilding, railing upgrades, and structural reinforcement. Whether you want a simple platform deck or a multi-level outdoor living space, we focus on creating a deck that looks great, feels solid underfoot, and performs reliably in everyday use.
Our deck work addresses both appearance and safety. We diagnose common issues like loose railings, soft or splintering boards, wobbly stairs, rusted fasteners, and water-damaged framing, then recommend the most cost-effective path—targeted repairs, partial replacement, or a full rebuild. The goal is long-term value: a deck that resists weathering, drains properly, and stays stable through seasonal changes.
Choosing The Right Decking For Durability And Style
Deck performance starts with smart material selection. We help you compare wood and composite decking, considering factors like budget, maintenance expectations, sun exposure, moisture conditions, and desired color/texture. Natural wood offers a classic appearance and can be refinished, while composite options provide consistent color and reduced upkeep when installed with proper ventilation and spacing.
Beyond deck boards, we guide choices for framing lumber, hardware, rail systems, stair components, and accessories like fascia, skirting, and lighting. Upgrading hidden components—joist hangers, structural screws, post bases, and corrosion-resistant connectors—often makes the biggest difference in longevity. We also plan board orientation, picture-framing, breaker boards, and drainage paths to reduce cupping, improve water shedding, and create a finished look.
Clear Planning, Strong Construction, Clean Results
Every project begins with a site evaluation to understand layout, access, elevation, and how you want to use the space. We discuss size, traffic flow, stairs and landings, railing style, and any special features like bench seating or privacy sections. From there, we create a plan that balances appearance with practical considerations such as water runoff, ventilation under the deck, and safe transitions to doors and patios.
Construction focuses on a stable structure first: properly sized footings, aligned posts, correctly attached beams, and joists installed to support the chosen decking. We pay close attention to fastener type, spacing, and edge support, because these details determine how the deck feels years later. Where appropriate, we use reinforcement techniques to reduce bounce and improve load distribution.
Finishing steps bring everything together. We ensure railings and stairs feel secure, walking surfaces are even, and edges are cleanly trimmed. We also review maintenance expectations—cleaning routines, staining or sealing schedules for wood, and what to watch for over time—so your deck stays safe and attractive with minimal surprises.

Local Deck Expertise And Service Standards
Reliable Communication And Workmanship You Can Trust
In Smyrna, outdoor spaces face changing conditions that can accelerate wear, from sun exposure to moisture and debris buildup. We build and repair decks with these realities in mind by prioritizing proper drainage, airflow, and corrosion-resistant connections, helping reduce common issues like rot at ledger areas, premature board deterioration, and loosening hardware.
Strife Management LLC serves Smyrna with a practical, safety-first approach: we explain findings clearly, outline options, and recommend solutions based on structural condition rather than quick cosmetic fixes. When repairs are needed, we identify root causes—such as inadequate flashing, undersized framing, or poor water management—so the problem doesn’t keep returning.
For homeowners in Smyrna, we aim to make the entire experience straightforward, from initial consultation through final walkthrough. Expect clean jobsite habits, careful protection of surrounding landscaping and surfaces, and a finished deck that feels solid, looks intentional, and supports comfortable outdoor living season after season.
