Project Details

Location: Oakland, CA

This deck needed restoration due to the old railing not meeting the current code in height or baluster spacing.

  • Levitch maintains the horizontal design of the original railing to respect the existing architectural style.
  • We use a welded railing structure that also acts as a wall cap to protect the wall on which it rests from water infiltration.
  • Cable rails and a painted wood cap complete the new railing.
  • A Bison leveling system with Ipe wood tiles creates the walking surface over the waterproof deck below, allowing for a picture-perfect view. The layout of the tiles complements the adjacent walkway tile.
