Inspection and Assessment
We walk the entire structure, checking framing, footings, ledger connections, and decking condition. You'll get a clear, honest read on what's salvageable and what needs to go.
If your deck is graying, splintering, or feeling soft underfoot, Bowen Contracting can strip it down and restore it right, from the frame up.
Decks take a beating from South Jersey weather. Between humid summers and freeze-thaw winters, boards cup, fasteners rust, and railings loosen faster than most homeowners expect. Deck restoration is our answer for homeowners in Audubon, Cherry Hill, Haddonfield, and nearby towns who love their deck’s layout and location but need the structure and surface brought back to modern standards.
Rather than tearing out a perfectly good frame, we inspect what’s underneath, repair or reinforce the framing where needed, and redeck the surface with better materials than what was likely used decades ago. It’s a smarter, often more affordable path than a total deck replacement when the bones of the structure are still sound.
As a licensed and insured contractor with over three decades of hands-on experience, Bowen Contracting treats every deck restoration project like it’s going on our own house. You’ll deal directly with the owner from the first walk-through to the final board.
Every deck is different, so we start with a full inspection before recommending a scope of work. Here’s what a typical deck restoration includes:
We also handle deck repair for smaller issues like loose boards, wobbly railings, or soft spots, so you don’t always need a full restoration to get your deck safe again. If your deck needs more than surface work, we’ll tell you honestly rather than upselling a bigger job than you need.
A restored deck should feel as solid as a new one, without the full cost or wait of a rebuild. Here’s what homeowners across Cherry Hill and the surrounding area gain when they choose deck restoration with us.

What's the difference between deck restoration and deck replacement?
Can you redeck with composite materials instead of wood?
Most deck restorations take a few days to about a week, depending on the size of the deck and the extent of framing repairs needed. We'll give you a realistic timeline after the initial inspection, and we stay in direct contact with you throughout the project so there are no surprises.
Don’t let a tired, unsafe deck sit through another season. Call Bowen Contracting for a straightforward inspection and honest recommendation on restoring your deck the right way, backed by over 30 years of hands-on experience serving Audubon, Cherry Hill, and the surrounding South Jersey communities.
