Green Shield Deck Builders upgrades all deck posts from 4x4 wet lumber to 6x6 pre-stained deck posts. With thicker pre-stained deck posts Green Shield is able to provide more stability and improve aesthetics for homeowners. Upgrading your deck posts allows us to make sure your deck is safe and lasts a lifetime.
4x4 Deck Posts
4x4 posts are a standard size you can find at your local hardware store. Code requires that decks be built with 4x4 posts or stronger. Despite regulations, many DIY home builders substitute key structural supports for smaller or low grade alternatives. The decision to build with cheap materials can seriously compromise your deck. Make sure your builder follows all code guidelines and upgrades your posts for added safety whenever possible. If you are unsure about the safety of your deck, schedule a Deck Check.
The Green Shield Difference
"4x4 Deck Posts just don’t last long enough. That’s why Green Shield upgraded to 6x6 Deck Posts!"
