Are there any alternatives to deck footings?

• <div><p>Deck pier blocks are one alternative to traditional deck footings. Unlike poured concrete and buried post footings, deck blocks <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/deck-footings-no-digging.htm">don’t require digging</a> or pouring. They’re best for small or low-to-the-ground decks. Keep in mind, though, that not all areas allow the use of deck pier blocks, so consult your local building codes before choosing them for your deck.</p></div>

Q: How should stair stringers be attached to a deck?

• <div><p>There are several methods for attaching stair stringers to a deck. The best way is to bolt the stringers to the deck joists using three carriage bolts in a triangular pattern. This method offers the sturdiest fit for stairs that won&rsquo;t budge. Alternatively, attach the stringers to the deck rims using lag bolts or to the posts using adjustable slope hangers.</p></div>

Q: What are the signs that my deck needs professional repair?

• <div><p>Rotting wood, loose railings, or unstable stairs may indicate a need for expertise.</p></div>

Q: How much do professionals charge hourly to install ornamental porch columns?

• <div><p>Professionals charge between <b>$60 and $95 per hour</b> to install ornamental porch columns. The amount of time they need varies based on the condition of the porch, whether they need to remove old columns, and if there is any damage to your porch's structure. This cost can increase if more issues come up during the installation process. </p></div>

Q: Are there eco-friendly materials available for repairs?

They were hired to repair a rotting support beam under my deck, and then made a suggestion for a replacement of a pergola that was rotting out after 16 years. The new pergola looks great with a new product that cuts out UV rays. Though the job was over a period of about a week due to rain, the...
