Why do most decks in East Tennessee fail after only 10 years? It’s not the wood—it’s the construction. In Knoxville’s humidity, a deck is only as good as its foundation and water management. While other companies send salespeople to give you a “rough estimate,” I personally visit your home to provide a technical evaluation.
deck builder in Knoxville, I specialize in both new deck installation and full deck replacement for aging structures.”
At MI Homesiding LLC, we don’t just build decks; we engineer outdoor living spaces. As a family-run business, Mel Hernandez brings the precision of blueprint analysis and itemized takeoffs to every project, ensuring you get a rock-solid structure without paying for wasted materials.
We compete with the big franchises by offering better technical details at a more personal level:
Blueprint-Level Accuracy: I analyze the structural requirements of your specific site. No “guessing” on post sizes or joist spacing.
Advanced Water Management: We use specialized flashing and under-deck drainage options to prevent the #1 cause of rot in Tennessee: water trapping against the house.
True “Owner-Operated” Service: You won’t be handed off to a project manager. I am involved in the takeoff, the material selection, and the final quality check.
Premium Pressure-Treated Wood: We select high-grade southern yellow pine, treated for maximum rot and termite resistance. Ideal for the classic Knoxville look.
Luxury Composite (Trex / Azek): Get the 25-year warranty of a composite deck. We are experts in hidden fastener systems for a smooth, screw-free surface that’s easy on bare feet.
Structural Deck Repairs: Before you spend $20k on a new deck, let me inspect your frame. If your structure is sound, we can often save you 50% by performing a “deck re-skin”—replacing only the surface boards and railings.
A deck lasts longer when it’s properly maintained. We offer deck maintenance and upgrade services to protect your investment and improve how the space looks and functions.
This includes:
If your deck feels outdated or unsafe, we’ll explain what can be fixed and what should be replaced.
Honest Estimates: “We provide an itemized takeoff including every joist, hanger, and screw. Because I use my margin standard, you pay for the quality of the build, not for corporate overhead.”
Zero Waste: My ability to perform exact takeoffs means you don’t pay for extra wood that ends up in a landfill.
Local Compliance: We handle the permitting and ensure every deck meets or exceeds Knoxville building codes for safety.
