How do you make a deck gate not sag?

• <div><p>You can use a few different tactics to prevent your deck gate from sagging. Aside from using strong, rot-resistant woods, introducing a diagonal element—such as a tension rod or solid piece of wood to act as a brace—across the gate will offer better support. You can also use rigid joists to prevent the gate from sagging.</p></div>

Q: How do you remove deck boards with hidden fasteners?

• <div><p>Cutting the boards directly is one of the fastest ways to remove deck boards with hidden fasteners. Mark two parallel lines that are one-third of the total measurement on both ends and cut out the centerpiece. Then, remove the end of the board that doesn&rsquo;t have a fastener. Finally, pry open the fastened side and pull it up to pop out the screw or access the fastener. This also allows you to salvage portions of boards for other projects. </p></div>

Q: Do you need a permit to repair deck boards?

• <div><p>No, you don&rsquo;t need a permit to repair and replace a few boards on an existing deck. However, if you&rsquo;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 <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-hire-deck-building-contractor.htm">who builds decks</a> for advice.</p></div>

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

• <div><p>Eco-friendly materials include sustainably-sourced woods, recycled metals, low-VOC paints, and non-toxic sealants, which reduce environmental impact. Using these in repairs promotes sustainability and can improve indoor air quality and overall building health.</p></div>

Q: What is involved in routine maintenance by professionals?

• <div><p>Regular cleaning, sealing, and inspections help identify problems early and maintain aesthetics.</p></div>

"Gary communicated very well, which I think makes a huge difference when working with a new contractor for the first time. He was thorough in the job as well as with his communication. He completed the job in a very timely manner and was extremely trustworthy. He was honest when it came to pricing and the timeline in which he could finish the job. He offered suggestions for different looks of what I wanted and more cost-efficient ideas. It was an overall seamless process for me in terms of working with Gary, and I was beyond happy with the result of the project"
