Alhambra checks that every subcontractor on your job holds a valid business license. We come ready for that.
Roughly 42 percent of the housing in Alhambra is owner occupied, which means most of it is rental, and most of our work is what comes with that: walkways serving several units, open stairs, and balconies stacked one above another. The city occupies the western San Gabriel Valley, about eight miles east of the downtown Los Angeles civic center.
Stacked balconies fail in a predictable order. Water gets behind the coating where the deck meets the building, soaks the ledger and the joist ends, and shows up a floor down as a soft tread or a brown ring on a ceiling. By then the framing has been wet through more than one rainy season.
One local requirement catches out of area contractors. Alhambra asks for a Contractor's Report from any construction company working in the city, verifying that each subcontractor holds a valid business license for the construction period. We have that in order before the first day rather than after a stop notice.
Work on an occupied building gets sequenced. We stage a shared walkway in sections so every unit keeps a route to the street, guard the open side overnight, and settle where the debris goes before anything comes off it.
Scope runs from a single balcony over a carport to a full walkway system on a courtyard building. We fabricate the iron too: guardrails rusted through at the base, stair stringers that have lost section at the concrete, and replacement precast treads.

The Contractor's Report covering subcontractor licensing goes in with the same package, so the job does not stall over paperwork that should have been filed already.

Yes. The city asks for it from any construction company working here, confirming every subcontractor holds a valid business license for the construction period. We file it with the permit package rather than after an inspector asks.
No. We sequence a walkway in sections so each unit keeps a safe route in and out, and any open edge is guarded before the crew leaves for the day.
Usually not. A stain below means water has already reached framing, so we cut the deck back at the wall and check the ledger and joist ends first. Coating over wet wood buys one season.
A professionally installed waterproofing system typically lasts many years. Capital Deck & Stair backs most projects with an 8-year warranty on workmanship, and proper maintenance can extend the life well beyond that.
Cost depends on the surface size, condition, and the coating system required. We provide a clear, itemized quote after a free on-site inspection, with no obligation and no pressure.
Most residential decks, balconies, and stairs take about a week from start to finish, depending on prep, repairs, and weather. We give you a firm timeline before work begins.
