Q: What’s the difference between a deck footing and a deck post?

• <div><p>Both deck footings and deck posts help prop up your deck. However, footings are the bottommost parts of a deck that touch the ground. They&rsquo;re usually made of concrete. Posts are pieces of wood that attach to the top of the footings with brackets. They run upwards and connect to the underside of your deck to support its weight. </p></div>

Q: How long will it take to rescreen my porch?

• <div><p>Rescreening your porch can take a few hours to a whole day, depending on the size of the enclosure and the amount of screen that needs replacing. If you decide to have a professional handle the rescreening, be sure to get a timeline and a cost estimate so you know how long you&rsquo;ll be without the screened-in space. </p></div>

Q: Can I replace just one spindle, or do I need to replace them all?

• <div><p>Yes, you can absolutely replace just one damaged spindle as long as you can find a matching replacement. However, if multiple spindles are damaged or you can't find an exact match, you might consider replacing an entire section for a more uniform look and structural integrity.</p></div>

Q: Can rotten deck boards be repaired?

• <div><p>Rotten deck boards can sometimes be repaired, but only if the damage is minor. Repairing small patches of rot involves strengthening the damaged area with wood hardener, filler, or epoxy. More substantial damage requires replacing the boards or rebuilding the entire structure in extreme cases. If the rot extends to the joists, posts, or beams, have a contractor evaluate the damage to ensure it is still structurally sound.</p></div>

Q: How long does it take to install a porch column?

• <div><p>Installing an ornamental or <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/front-porch-decorating-ideas.htm">decorative porch</a> column takes around three to five hours. Structural columns take longer because your pro has to install a jack to hold up the roof while switching the column out. If there's any structural damage, it can add several days to the timeline to repair the damage. </p></div>

Mr. Peoples did a fantastic job on our deck and screened in our lanai. We had a couple of small concerns and he addressed them with a great amount of confidence and professionalism.

Very friendly installer. However, area cleanup could have been more thorough. Gutter debris and old gutter mounting hardware not removed from deck and porch.
