“They didn't try to sell me a whole new deck. They showed me exactly which boards needed replacing, put the price in writing, and it came back looking better than the day it was built.”

We niched down on purposeWe don’t do everything.
We don’t do everything.
We do decks — exceptionally.
Most contractors spread themselves across kitchens, floors, fences and whatever the phone brings that week. We made a deliberate choice to master a single, high-craft specialty instead.
That focus is your advantage: sharper estimates, faster jobs, a finish that actually lasts, and a crew that has seen your exact problem a hundred times before. Slide across to see what a Rusek restoration really means.

What we do
Everything a deck needs — nothing it doesn’t.
A complete, single-focus service menu. No upsells into work your deck doesn’t require — just the steps that bring wood back to life and keep it there.
Deep clean & power wash
Years of grey, grime, mildew and old finish stripped back to bright, sound wood — the foundation every lasting restoration is built on.
Sanding & board repair
We sand splinters smooth and replace split, cupped or rotted boards and popped fasteners so your deck is safe underfoot again.
Premium stain & seal
A rich, even, hand-applied stain and sealant that stands up to Crawford County sun, rain and snow — and looks the part on day one.
Railings & structural fixes
Wobbly rails, loose posts and tired stairs tightened, reinforced and refinished so the whole structure feels solid, not just pretty.
Full deck restoration
The complete package — clean, repair, sand, stain and seal — turning a deck you've been avoiding into the best room in the house.
Seasonal maintenance plan
An optional yearly touch-up that keeps your finish ahead of the weather, so you never face a full restoration twice.
Why homeowners choose Rusek
Built to fill the gaps the others leave open.
You’ve got options — the apps, the handyman, the lowest bid. Here’s honestly how we’re different, and why it matters for your deck.
Lead-gen apps (Angi, Thumbtack) sell your request to five strangers who all cold-call you.
You talk to the same local crew that will actually do the work — from estimate to final walkthrough.
The weekend handyman is great value until they're booked solid, out of their depth, or simply gone.
A licensed, insured, dedicated deck crew that shows up when promised and stands behind every board.
The lowest bidder wins the job, then cuts corners you don't see until the finish fails in two years.
Premium prep and materials backed by a written 5-year finish warranty, so it's done once and done right.
A jack-of-all-trades generalist treats your deck as one more unfamiliar job on a long list.
Deck restoration is the only thing we do — hundreds of boards of hard-won, single-minded expertise.
How it works
Four honest steps. Zero surprises.
Clear communication is the whole point. You always know what’s happening, what it costs, and when it’ll be done.

Free on-site estimate
We come out, listen, measure and inspect every board — no sales pressure, no drive-by guesses over the phone.
02
Honest, written price
You get one clear, fixed quote in writing before we lift a tool. The number you approve is the number you pay.
03
Restored by our own crew
No subcontractors, no revolving faces. The same dedicated team cleans, repairs, sands, stains and seals your deck.
04
Walkthrough & warranty

Word of mouth
The kind of reviews that come from doing it right.
“I'd been burned by a handyman who vanished halfway through. Rusek showed up every day, same crew, and actually explained what they were doing. The communication alone was worth it.”
Kevin H.

“Fair price, no surprises, and the finish has held up through a brutal winter. You can tell decks are all they do — this is real craftsmanship, not a side gig.”

Good questions
Answers before you ask.
Still wondering about something? The estimate is free and the conversation is honest — reach out any time.
Ask us directlyYes — deck restoration is all we do, and that focus is the point. One specialty means our crew has restored hundreds of boards, knows exactly how Crawford County weather ages wood, and gets your project done faster and cleaner than a generalist juggling ten different trades.
A typical restoration is a deep clean and power wash, sanding and board-level repairs, replacing any rotted or split boards and popped fasteners, then a premium stain and seal. We finish by walking the whole deck with you before we call it done.
Every estimate is free, on-site, and written down before any work begins — no surprise add-ons. Most single-deck restorations land around our $850 average, but the honest number depends on your square footage, wood type, and condition. You'll always approve the fixed price first.
We're locally owned and serve homeowners throughout Crawford County and the surrounding communities. If you're just outside the county line, reach out anyway — we'll let you know honestly whether we can help.
Our stain-and-seal work is backed by a 5-year finish warranty. If the finish fails within that window under normal use, we come back and make it right — in writing, no fine-print games.
Late spring through early fall gives us the dry, mild conditions a good finish needs to cure properly. Booking early in the season locks in your spot before the summer rush — that's exactly what the estimate form below is for.
