Winter Deck Planning in the New Year

Many of us have New Year’s resolutions set for 2024. Diets, exercise plans, and perhaps even efforts to travel more. However, most people aren’t thinking of building a deck in their backyard just yet. Lots of people neglect to think about building a new deck until the spring or summer when deck-building companies are at their busiest. By this time, everyone is booked, demand is high, and you have to schedule your build for weeks or months out. Planning your deck building during the new year comes with many advantages. 

The best part of having your deck built in the winter is the availability in the schedule of decking experts. Demand is often lower for decks during the colder months which allows for faster installation time and there is less competition over limited time. 

Another benefit of building your deck in the winter is the ability to enjoy it when warmer weather emerges. Because the deck is already built by the end of spring or the beginning of summer, you don’t have to wait. As soon as the weather is warm enough, you can head out to your new deck and enjoy the Michigan weather!

Furthermore, deck costs may be lower during the winter. Both prices on decking materials and labor may be lower as demand is lesser in the winter. It isn’t too early to get started with your deck building. Line it up today with Miles Bradley!

Deck Inspections in Southeast Michigan

For people that already have decks, we offer deck inspections! Whether you have a wooden or low-maintenance composite deck, we can tell you exactly what you need to make your deck its best. Also, there are several benefits that come from a deck inspection. 

  • Damage- Our expert contractors can tell you if there are signs of damage or rotting materials that need to be replaced. Catching these issues soon can prevent further damage and can save you money in the long run.
  • Stability- As decks get older, the framework and materials get weaker. With a deck inspection, we can tell you what needs to be fixed or reinforced. This will keep your deck strong and secure!
  • Safety- Weak railings, missing screws or bolts, and wood damage have the potential to cause injury to you and your family. We look for these signs during a deck inspection and alert you to them being there.

Cheaper Lumber Means Lower Prices For Our Customers!

Did you know that the cost of lumber is considerably lower during the winter months? Lumber prices tend to fluctuate depending on the time of year. One of the main reasons why the wintertime is the absolute best time to have your deck built with Miles Bradley is because it’s the time when lumber is the cheapest!

Lower demand for construction throughout the U.S., in general, has lowered the cost of lumber nationwide, but the demand is especially lower during the winter months as fewer people are embarking on their outdoor projects. This is where you can step in and become the big lumberwinner.

We build our high-quality decks, screened enclosures, gazebos, staircases, railings, or other great products in Michigan all year round, and we offer winter specials of 10-20% off your project!

It’s similar to the saying, “out of sight, out of mind” when it comes to having your deck built during the cold winter months. You naturally don’t think to have a deck built when you open your back curtains and just see mounds and mounds of snow, which we understand. But by the time the weather warms up, and you realize you enjoy being outside more often, you begin to think about adding on to your home. By thinking ahead and allowing us to take advantage of lowered costs of lumber right now during the winter, you not only save money but you make it so that you can lounge on your deck on the very first nice day of the year!

The low-maintenance composite decks we build in Michigan can’t be beaten, so don’t wait until the weather warms up and the price of lumber increases to start your project. Contact us now! Also, time is running out to capitalize on our offer of a free set of six rail lights with a photo/cell timer when you purchase your new deck. The deal expires on February 28 so make sure you don’t miss out!
