Deck Remodels & Expansions in Indian River, MI

Deck remodeling in Indian River, MI, isn’t just about swapping boards—it’s about reclaiming the space where you spend your best summer days. At Hope Landscaping LLC, we help homeowners upgrade, expand, and reimagine their decks so they’re safer, stronger, and built for years of good use. Whether it’s a full deck renovation or just a few smart improvements, we’ll make sure it looks great and stands up to Michigan weather.

Decks That Actually Work for How You Live

Most of the time, when someone calls us about a deck, it’s not because they want something flashy—it’s because their current one isn’t working anymore. Maybe it’s too small for family gatherings, maybe the railings have seen better days, or maybe the wood just can’t keep up with the seasons. We get it.


We start every remodel by asking one simple question: How do you actually use your deck? Then we design from there. From a quiet morning coffee spot to a full wrap-around entertaining space, we’ll tailor every detail to how you live in Indian River, MI, and beyond.

Why Homeowners Call Hope Landscaping LLC

Deck work might sound straightforward, but anyone who’s lived here knows Michigan weather makes it tricky. Between humidity, frost, and long winters, a deck that isn’t built right can start to fail within a few years. That’s where experience matters.


We build and remodel decks the same way we approach any outdoor structure: solid foundation, smart drainage, weatherproof materials, and precise craftsmanship. You’ll get something that not only looks good but stays good—through every season, year after year.

Built for Northern Michigan Conditions

If you’ve ever seen what freeze-thaw cycles can do to a wood deck, you know how important the prep work is. We take extra time to inspect the frame, check the footings, and make sure everything underneath is sound before adding a single new board.


Whether we’re working with composite decking, treated lumber, or natural wood, we anchor and seal everything to protect it from moisture and shifting ground. That’s what gives our decks their longevity—and keeps you from having to call for repairs every spring.

A Fresh Look, Without Starting Over

You don’t always need a brand-new deck to make your space feel new. Sometimes you need to replace old boards, put in new railings, or make one part bigger to fit a table or grill.


We're here to help you figure out what's working—keeping the good stuff and making the not-so-great parts even better. We're not just looking to rebuild; the goal is to improve the space, making it more functional, welcoming, and in harmony with the surrounding property.

Our Process

Consult & Design

We’ll visit your property, check the existing structure, and talk through what you want—bigger space, new materials, or a total redesign.

Build & Reinforce

We take care of repairing or rebuilding the framework, swapping out old boards, and installing your new decking materials with a lot of attention to detail.

Finish & Enjoy

Once complete, we’ll walk the space with you and make sure every railing, seam, and surface feels solid and ready to enjoy.

Designed to Match Your Home

Hope Landscaping LLC

Every deck we remodel is built to fit your home’s style and setting. When it comes to lakefront properties, we usually create wide platforms that really enhance the view. For wooded lots, we’ll go with natural tones that really fit in with the landscape. We can match your siding, add custom steps or landings, and tie the deck into nearby patios or walkways so everything feels intentional.


It’s not just a deck—it’s part of your home’s personality.

FAQs

  • Can you remodel my existing deck, or do you have to rebuild it?

    We’ll always try to preserve what’s solid. If your frame is in good shape, we can remodel on top of it; if it’s not, we’ll recommend rebuilding so you’re not patching problems down the road.

  • What’s the best decking material for Northern Michigan weather?

    Composite decking holds up incredibly well to moisture and temperature swings, but treated or cedar wood still offers great longevity if maintained properly. We’ll help you choose based on look, feel, and budget.

  • Do you handle permits for deck expansions?

    Indeed. At Landscaping LLC, we handle all local building codes, permits, and inspections to ensure your project is completely compliant and stress-free.

  • Can you tie my new deck into my patio or outdoor kitchen?

    Of course! We make it a point to blend outdoor spaces smoothly, so your deck flows easily into walkways, patios, or kitchens.

  • How long does a deck remodel take?

    Most deck remodels or expansions take between one and three weeks, depending on size, materials, and weather conditions.
