Deck and Fence Removal Tips for Sprakers, NY

Can I reuse the wood from my deck or fence removal?

Removing your deck or fence doesn't have to involve destroying it in the process. The lumber used in decks and fences is quite valuable—weathered wood is ideal for a variety of DIY projects and can be reused for countless purposes. You can completely transform your old fence or deck into landscaping trim, a table, bench, headboard, picture frame, or nearly anything else you can think of (or you could simply sell the wood to someone else).

The deck removal process involves:

  • Removing all railings and stairs
  • Removing the deck boards
  • Removing the deck's legs
  • Removing the concrete feet from the ground

The fence removal process involves:

  • Removing the fence gates
  • Removing the fence pickets
  • Removing the fence posts
  • Removing the fence post footings (optional, but recommended)

A professional could remove the average deck or fence in 4 hours or less, but if you attempt to do it yourself, expect it to take close to a full day (or more).
