This exterior renovation in Gloucester County, NJ replaced an aging and structurally compromised deck landing and stair system with a durable, low maintenance solution designed to improve safety, accessibility, and everyday functionality. The project focused on creating a secure and reliable entrance for residents and staff while enhancing the long term performance of the facility.
The project began with the complete demolition and removal of the existing deck landing and stair structure, which had deteriorated over time due to age and exposure to the elements. Following an assessment that identified structural deficiencies and safety concerns, the existing system was removed to make way for a complete reconstruction.
A new deck landing and stair assembly was then constructed using industry-standard building practices and materials selected for durability and long-term performance. The structure was framed with pressure-treated lumber, including new joists, beams, posts, and stair stringers designed to provide a stable and secure foundation for daily use.
To improve appearance and reduce maintenance requirements, composite fascia boards were installed on the stair risers, providing a clean, weather-resistant finish. Walking surfaces and stair treads were completed using Trex composite decking, offering enhanced durability, slip resistance, and long-term performance without the ongoing maintenance associated with traditional wood systems.
The completed project transformed a deteriorated and potentially hazardous entrance into a modern, safe, and functional access point that better serves residents, visitors, and staff while supporting the facility’s daily operations.

“Having this deck built has significantly improved accessibility for both our staff and the individuals we serve. It provides a safer and more convenient entrance, especially for those arriving from the day program through the back entrance. The design helps reduce the risk of trips and falls while also making it much easier for staff to unload groceries and supplies from the van.”
