Check the licence, liability cover and workers' compensation, then ask any Pacific Heights contractor what happens if the deck is worse than expected — and get that answer in writing before the covering comes off.

Pacific Heights sits in San Francisco County and takes salt air off the water, long marine-layer mornings and slow-drying north slopes. In practice that means fasteners and flashing corrode before the covering does, so fixing specification matters more here than material choice.

A full replacement in Pacific Heights is permitted and inspected through the San Francisco Department of Building Inspection. Small repairs generally are not, but the layer count and assembly are checked on any permitted job.

One to three days on a typical Pacific Heights property, depending on size, pitch and how much deck needs replacing. Nothing is left open overnight.

Granules in the gutters, curling tabs, repeat stains in the same ceiling after every storm, and soft spots underfoot. In Pacific Heights, fasteners and flashing corrode before the covering does, so fixing specification matters more here than material choice.
