How long should I wait to walk or drive on the repaired area?

• <div><p>If you used regular jointing sand, you can typically walk on the repaired area right away. If you used polymeric sand, wait at least <b>24 hours</b> before walking on it and <b>48 to 72 hours</b> before driving over it, depending on the weather. Polymeric sand needs time to fully cure and lock the pavers in place.</p></div>

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: Does insurance cover wood rot?

• <div><p>Wood rot is not normally covered by insurance except in rare cases when it results from a covered event like a burst pipe. Wood rot is categorized as gradual, preventable damage, so most insurance policies won&rsquo;t pay for claims to repair wood rot damage. Check your policy to find out if wood rot is covered before making a claim. </p></div>

Q: How do I get rid of moisture under my elevated deck?

• <div><p>If you notice standing water under the deck after rainstorms, you may need a drainage system to efficiently move this water. You do not want standing water to rest against your foundation or against support posts for the deck, as this could cause significant structural problems over time. Make sure the area has proper grading, too.</p></div>

Q: Why is my deck leaning to one side?

• <div><p>The most likely causes of a deck leaning to one side are damaged deck posts, soil erosion, and inadequate deck footings. If you&rsquo;re not sure about the exact cause, the best option is to call a contractor <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-hire-deck-building-contractor.htm">who can build a deck</a> to inspect the damage and recommend the best way forward.</p></div>

The work was spread over a very long time. I had 2-3 months where I couldn't get anyone involved to return my calls and tell me what was going on. The original salesman was about the only one who would call back but he had little control over what was happening. When the gutter replacement was...
