"Remodeled kitchen. The work he did was OK. I wanted a contract. Kept asking for one. He showed up with the contract the day I paid him. Kept having to call to see when he would show up to work again. He would tell me and sometimes he would not show up or call. Took them 2 1/2 months to finish. The appliances were on backorder. They were not in by the time he finished, except for a few things like cleaning paint splatter, and caulking. He said he would come back and install appliances and finish up. Appliances were delivered and two weeks later I was still calling to see when he would come back. He would not say. I was telling him on the phone that I would hire someone else and he hung up on me. I called and left a message telling him that this is business and if he has the courage to call back in the next two or so days, it is fine. Otherwise, I am hiring someone else. He never called me."

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

Building a deck without a permit could lead to fines for both the homeowner and the contractor. The exact penalties will depend on your state and municipal building laws. You might also be required to remove the deck and apply for a permit before you can build another. While it might be tempting to skip the permit to save a few bucks, it’ll cost you much more if you’re caught.

Building a deck isn't too hard if you’re handy with carpentry, have the necessary tools, and are willing to put effort into it. However, other factors, such as plans, permits, and design, can be hard if you don’t have experience in those areas.

Note: You’ll need another person to help you build the deck (especially for framing and setting the beams). Building a deck yourself will be very difficult if you don’t have an extra set of hands to help.

It is definitely worth sanding a deck to ensure the wood absorbs new stain. Sanding a deck removes the outer layers of aging wood, allowing the stain to penetrate. It also gives a fresh look to the entire surface as part of the deck refinishing process. Without sanding, your stain or sealant is less likely to absorb into the wood. While sanding a deck is a time-intensive project, the rewards are noticeable and long-lasting.

While the terms deck and porch are often used interchangeably, they are two distinct structures. A porch is a covered structure, usually attached to the front of a home, that offers protection from the elements. In contrast, a deck is an open, uncovered platform, often attached to the back or side of a home. Because porches have a roof, they typically require less maintenance than decks, but both features need regular cleaning and repairs to stay in good condition.

No, you don’t need a permit to repair and replace a few boards on an existing deck. However, if you’re making structural changes to the deck or tearing down the old one and building a new one, you will likely need a permit. Check with your local municipality for the regulations and rules in your area, or ask a local contractor who builds decks for advice.
