Deck Replacement in Fargo ND — Out With the Old, In With Something Better

Serving Fargo, Moorhead, and Surrounding Areas

When a deck is past the point of repair, replacement is the smarter call. We handle the teardown and build you something new in its place.

ABOUT OUR DECK REPLACEMENT SERVICES

Some decks can be repaired. Others have reached the point where putting more money into them doesn’t make sense — the frame is compromised, the footings have shifted, and the cost of fixing everything adds up to more than a fresh start would. LT Outdoor Living handles full deck replacement across the Fargo-Moorhead area — teardown, disposal, and a new build designed around what you actually want today, not what worked ten years ago. Call (320) 699-0611 and we’ll come out, assess what you have, and give you an honest answer on whether repair or replacement makes more sense.

When You Need Deck Replacement

The clearest sign that replacement is the right call: the structural frame is rotted or compromised at multiple points, the footings have heaved or settled significantly, or the cost of repairs keeps climbing with no end in sight. In the Fargo area, decks built before better footing systems were standard often develop these problems after fifteen to twenty years of freeze-thaw cycles. Another common trigger is a major life change — you’ve updated your home’s exterior, you want a different size or layout, or you’re finally building the deck you always wanted instead of maintaining the one that came with the house. Replacement also makes sense when you want to change materials entirely, like switching from aging wood to composite or cedar.

Our Deck Replacement Process

We start with an assessment of the existing deck and a conversation about what you want the new one to look like. From there, we put together a 3D design of the replacement deck so you can see it before anything is touched. Once the plan and quote are approved, we handle the full teardown — removing the old deck, disposing of all materials, and leaving the area clean and ready for new construction. New footings go in, typically helical piers for the Red River Valley’s soil conditions, followed by framing, decking, railings, and stairs. The whole process from teardown to finished deck typically runs one to two weeks depending on the size and complexity of the new build.

Deck Replacement Cost in Fargo

Deck replacement costs include both the removal of the old structure and the construction of the new one. The total depends on the size and complexity of the new deck, the materials selected, and what features are included. We give you a single written quote that covers everything — teardown, disposal, new build, and permit costs — so there are no surprises once work begins. We’ll also tell you honestly if repair is a better financial move than full replacement in your specific situation.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. When I started thinking about a new deck, I only had a general idea of what I wanted it to look like.  Luke provided lots of ideas, and options that I had not thought of.  He is very knowledgeable about engineering requirements, materials, and design.  This project turned out better than I had hoped for.  I highly recommend LTOutdoorLiving for your project.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Luke and his crew will go above and beyond for you!  He is very respectful of the project and your time. He kept in contact with us and let us know how everything was going every step of the way. Luke put a new set of stairs on our pre-existing deck.  Safety for our family was number one in his books. He built the strongest set of stairs I think I have ever seen.  I wouldn’t hesitate to hire Luke and his crew again!!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Luke is a impressive person, respectful of others and trustworthy, I have a special needs daughter and I had no issues at all or worries about leaving her at home while he and his team were here working, I had asked him to look out for my daughter and my elderly mother,  he gave me his word that he would. It was a absolute pleasure to work with him and his team. His attention to detail, and his strive for excellence gives him the edge over the rest. Hard worker, very skilled craftsmanship and has the ability to overcome any of the challenges in deck building. Honest, trustworthy, and high integrity. He gave me a quote, I told him my budget and he was able to work things out and stay within his quote. I couldn’t be happier with the work that he had done!
I should have called him years earlier, so nice to enjoy the maintenance free deck and patio now.
Any future with the building needs I may have I will be sure contact him, highly recommend LT Out Door Living !!!!
Thanks again Luke.

I needed two piers put into the ground within the week and they rearranged their schedule to get me in to keep my project going on. Awesome people to work with and did a great job. Would highly recommend.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I couldn't be happier with the experience I had working with LT Outdoor living! From the very first day, he showed up with a smile on his face and a can-do attitude that instantly put me at ease. It’s rare to find someone who not only takes pride in their craft but also goes above and beyond to make sure your needs are fully met— Luke did exactly that.
He listened carefully to what I wanted, offered helpful suggestions, and paid attention to every detail. One of the standout parts of the process was that he offered a 3D design of the deck before construction even began. It was incredibly helpful to see exactly what the finished product would look like—it gave me peace of mind and made it easier to make confident decisions about layout and features. Thank you so much Luke!!
