Daycare Deck Rebuild in York Mills, Toronto
Complete Deck Rebuild for Small Prints Daycare
Small Prints Daycare in York Mills needed its outdoor deck replaced. The old deck frame had rotted, so we removed the whole deck and rebuilt it completely, with a new frame, pressure-treated decking along the building, new wide stairs and a new wood gate, so the children and staff have a safe, solid outdoor space again. The project was completed in November 2025.

Why a full rebuild instead of repairs
At a daycare, the deck is used every day by young children, so it has to be safe and solid with no loose boards or trip hazards. When the frame underneath has rotted, new boards on top won’t make it safe, and patching sections just moves the problem around.
A complete rebuild gave Small Prints Daycare one consistent, safe surface from end to end.
How the daycare deck came together
Here’s how the deck was rebuilt, step by step.
First, removal
The old decking and stairs were removed and hauled away, and the area was cleaned up.
Then, the frame
The rotted wood frame was replaced with a completely new frame along the length of the building.
Next, the decking
New pressure-treated decking was installed along the full length of the deck.
Finally, stairs and gate
New wide stairs were built, and a new wood gate was installed to keep the play area secure.
What it looks like now
Small Prints Daycare now has a long, solid outdoor deck that children and staff can use safely every day. The new decking is even from end to end, the stairs are wide and easy to use, and the gate keeps the area secure.
FAQs About Commercial and Daycare Decks
Yes. We rebuild and repair decks for commercial clients, including daycares, and plan the work around how the space is used.
Safety: solid, even boards with no trip hazards, secure gates, and guards and stairs that meet the Building Code. We build with those requirements in mind.
Commercial projects often have extra requirements. Toronto requires a building permit for decks more than 60 cm (24 in) above the ground, and some commercial work needs permits regardless. We check what applies to your property.
Often, yes. We plan the work in sections and keep the site safe and separated from staff and visitors.
