This small-scale deck refurbishment project took place in Steelton, Pennsylvania, involving a tight-access 6 x 7 deck with five steps down to grade. The existing structure had deteriorated significantly and required a full refresh to restore safety, stability, and usability in a constrained workspace.
Challenging Access and Work Area
One of the main challenges of this project was the extremely limited access to the build area. The deck was located in a tight space, making material handling, demolition, and installation more difficult than standard builds. Careful coordination was required to complete the work efficiently without damaging surrounding structures.
Trex Cinnamon Cove Decking Installation
The new surface was upgraded using Trex Cinnamon Cove composite decking, selected for its durability, low maintenance, and natural wood-like appearance. This material provides long-term resistance to rot, fading, and moisture damage—ideal for small outdoor structures exposed to Pennsylvania weather conditions.
RDI Finyl Line Railing System Upgrade
To complement the new decking, an RDI Finyl Line railing system in clay with black balusters was installed. This combination delivered a clean, modern aesthetic while improving safety and structural integrity along the elevated sections and stair run.
Two-Day Refurbishment Process
Final Cost and Project Outcome
The total cost of the project was $5,500. The completed deck transformation provided a safe, refreshed, and visually upgraded outdoor space, significantly improving both functionality and appearance within a compact footprint in Pennsylvania.
