"Built to Last Construction was recommended to my husband and me by his brother. They remodeled my bother-in law's kitchen and built him a beautiful deck, which is featured on their website at https://www.b2lconstruction.com. We hired them to remodel our kitchen. It turned out beautiful. Tom even built pull out drawers for my cupboard panty and added a heat vent along the floor. The extra time and detail they took to get it just right was amazing. I recommended them to a friend who is keeping them busy with projects at her home. My friend recommended them to someone else who has had a hard time finding someone to update her deck. She will not be disappointed."

"Guy can really do it all. Heâ s my first call when we have an issue at a rental that needs to be fixed quickly or at an Airbnb when it needs to get done perfectly! Iâ ve used him more for repairs but seeing his workmanship, Iâ d use him for renovations as well. I trust him in our house, heâ s always more than fair and honest."

"I can t say enough great things about my deck project completed by Dustin, Dave, and the crew at Bear Builders of Michigan. They were excellent from start to finish. They set realistic deadlines for each part of the project to be completed, including final completion and met or finished ahead of each scheduled deadline. They brought every aspect of our design to life. The deck looks exactly like we envisioned. Dave (the builder) is AWESOME! His attention detail is AMAZING! He really no stone unturned. Dustin s communication was OUTSTANDING! He touched base with us every step of the way. Each aspect of the project was carefully explained to ensure our understanding. He even went the extra mile to make some minor repairs to our front porch that he noticed were problematic. I really can t say enough good things regarding how happy I am with the outcome of our deck project. We have received tons of compliments and inquiries on the deck already and it s only been a week since it was completed. If you re looking for an awesome company with awesome people to bring you project to life HIRE BEAR BUILDERS OF MICHIGAN NOW!"

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

The overhang, or nosing, of deck steps is another area that will be covered in building code requirements. The noses on your deck steps should have a minimum overhang of ¾ inch. For safety, usability, and code compliance, the nosing of deck steps should not extend past 1¼ inches.

Because adding a deck will yield a higher property value, you may have higher insurance costs. It’s important to follow the codes and regulations set by your local and state governments, so your insurance rates can be properly calculated. You may need an insurance revaluation after your deck is completed. The best course of action is to speak with an insurance professional to understand how adding a deck will impact your home’s insurance costs before you begin.

There are a variety of second-story deck privacy ideas depending on your budget and aesthetic. For starters, you might consider fencing or tall privacy railing that masks a good portion of the open deck. A pergola or an awning can provide additional cover and shade. Outdoor curtains are an easy way to add or remove privacy at your convenience, plus they’re a wallet-friendly way to decorate your deck.

Local building codes don’t specify the number of steps a deck can have before a railing is required, mainly because stair height varies widely. Most areas require decks 30 inches or higher to have a railing. While not exact, that roughly equates to four to seven steps.

The most likely causes of a deck leaning to one side are damaged deck posts, soil erosion, and inadequate deck footings. If you’re not sure about the exact cause, the best option is to call a contractor who can build a deck to inspect the damage and recommend the best way forward.
