Deck and Porch Skirting
The shady space under a deck or porch attracts skunks, opossums, groundhogs and rabbits. We install buried wire skirting and neat framing that closes the space and stops animals from digging back in.

Common questions
Can skirting be added to an old deck?
Yes. We measure and fit it to the existing frame and grade.
Does it need to be buried?
For digging animals it should be. A buried barrier that extends below the surface stops most diggers.
