2nd-Floor Townhome Deck Makeover | Whitehall PA

This Whitehall, PA client came to us with a deck that had done its job for years—but was showing its age. Originally built using rugged black locust lumber, the second-story deck off their townhouse was now showing signs of aging, discoloration, and mold. They needed a deck company they could trust to not just replace it, but to do it quickly and with quality that would last.

Enter Upgryd. We met with the client, reviewed their goals, and offered a clear vision: modern, low-maintenance decking in a brighter tone, contrasted with strong privacy features and stylish fascia to complement their home’s exterior. They selected Deckorators Summit Decking in Glacier for its light tone and textured finish, paired with Deckorators Voyage fascia in Khaya to frame the surface with warm, natural contrast.

One of the standout features of this build was the custom HOFT privacy wall, installed along the side of the deck using matching Deckorators Voyage slats in Khaya slats. This not only enhances privacy from neighboring townhomes, but gives the deck a high-end architectural detail that feels more like an outdoor room than a typical platform.

The Upgryd team removed the existing deck boards and railing system and, in just one day, resurfaced the structure with Glacier decking, installed new Deckorators Voyage fascia in Khaya, installed risers and trims, and completed the privacy wall system with precision. It wasn’t just about getting it done fast—it was about doing it right.

The client summed it up best in their review:

“Absolutely I would recommend this company… Josh was easy to work with, very professional, honest, and the follow-up was fantastic. What you hoped would happen did!”

Now, the deck is more than just structurally sound—it’s a place the client is proud to use and show off. With clean lines, durable materials, and a design that checks every box, this second-story space is a perfect example of what Upgryd is all about: quality, craftsmanship, and a better outdoor experience.
