Custom Deck Construction Options for Milford Homeowners

Every property and homeowner has different priorities. Some want the lowest possible maintenance, while others prefer the natural character of wood. Hartman’s Hammer LLC helps Milford homeowners compare decking materials and select the option that best fits their home, lifestyle, and long-term goals.

​

We specialize in three primary decking options:

​

Composite Decking

Composite decking is one of the most popular choices for homeowners who want the look of a premium deck without the ongoing maintenance associated with wood.

Composite decking is designed to resist common problems associated with traditional wood decking, including rot, splintering, and insect damage. Modern composite decking is available in a wide range of colors, textures, and finishes, allowing us to create a custom deck with the appearance of natural wood and the low-maintenance performance homeowners want.

For many Milford homeowners, composite decking provides an excellent balance of durability, appearance, and long-term value.

Hartman’s Hammer LLC installs premium composite decking from leading manufacturers, including Trex®, and can help you compare available products and options for your project.

​

PVC Decking

PVC decking provides another premium, low-maintenance alternative to traditional wood.

Unlike traditional wood-plastic composite decking, PVC decking is made from synthetic polymer materials and provides exceptional resistance to moisture, rot, and other weather-related deterioration. It is an excellent option for homeowners who place a high priority on water resistance, minimal maintenance, and long-term performance.

Hartman’s Hammer LLC installs premium PVC decking from leading manufacturers, including TimberTech® Advanced PVC and Deckorators® PVC decking. These products offer realistic wood-grain aesthetics, a wide range of colors, and durable surfaces designed to withstand the demands of Michigan’s changing seasons.

Deckorators® Voyage, for example, uses the brand’s proprietary technology to create a lightweight, highly moisture-resistant decking product with excellent dimensional stability and enhanced traction. Deckorators’ current product information specifically identifies Voyage as a leading PVC decking product. 

Whether you’re considering TimberTech PVC, Deckorators PVC, Trex composite decking, or another premium decking system, we’ll help you compare the materials and select the option that best fits your Milford home, lifestyle, and long-term goals.

​

Wood Decking

Wood decking offers the natural appearance and character that many homeowners continue to appreciate.

For homeowners who prefer traditional wood, we can design and build custom wood decks with carefully selected materials and finishes. Wood decking can provide a beautiful, classic appearance, but it does require regular maintenance—including cleaning, staining, and sealing—to protect the material from Michigan’s weather.

If you’re deciding between wood and composite decking, we’ll explain the advantages and maintenance requirements of each so you can make an informed decision for your home.

​

​

Deck Replacement in Milford, MI

If your existing deck is aging, deteriorating, or no longer fits the way you use your backyard, it may be time for a complete deck replacement.

​

A deck replacement can provide an opportunity to improve more than just the decking surface. Depending on the condition of the existing structure, we can evaluate the framing, stairs, railings, layout, and overall design to determine the best approach for your property.

​

Whether you’re replacing an old wood deck with a new composite deck or completely redesigning your outdoor living space, Hartman’s Hammer LLC can help you determine the right solution.

​

Deck Resurfacing in Milford, MI

If your existing deck has a sound structural frame but the decking boards and railings are showing their age, deck resurfacing may be an excellent alternative to a complete deck replacement.

Deck resurfacing involves removing the existing decking and replacing it with new decking while evaluating the existing structure underneath. Depending on the condition of the framing, we can install premium composite decking, PVC decking, or other selected materials to give your existing deck a completely new appearance and a lower-maintenance surface.

​

Resurfacing can also be an opportunity to update your deck with new railings, stairs, fascia, lighting, and other design features without completely rebuilding the underlying structure.

​​

Before recommending resurfacing, Hartman’s Hammer LLC evaluates the existing framing and attachment points to determine whether they are suitable for the new deck surface. If the underlying structure has significant deterioration or no longer provides a suitable foundation for the project, we may recommend a complete deck replacement instead.

​

Our goal is not simply to cover an aging deck with new boards. We’ll help you determine whether resurfacing or replacement provides the best long-term solution for your Milford home.

​
