Q: What is a deck not attached to a house called?

• <div><p>A deck that isn&rsquo;t attached to a house is called a floating or freestanding deck. These standalone decks are built near ground level, so they usually don&rsquo;t need deck stairs. Some don&rsquo;t even require permits. Generally speaking, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-build-floating-deck.htm">building a floating deck</a> is faster and more DIY-friendly than constructing one that&rsquo;s connected to your home. </p></div>

Q: Is a covered deck a good investment?

• <div><p>A covered deck can be a good investment that increases your home value&mdash;especially if you live in a hot region with a lot of sun. A covering over the deck means you can get more use out of it, even on the hottest summer days. With a permanent deck covering, you can even add ceiling fans to help cool down your deck for added comfort. </p></div>

Q: What type of sander is best for sanding a deck?

• <div><p>A random orbital sander is best for sanding a deck because it is easier to handle than other power sanders and is less likely to damage the wood. Most decks are made of types of softwood, so a gentler sanding process is essential to prevent permanent blemishes. For example, belt sanders can gouge softwoods. </p></div>

Q: Can my deck support a roof?

• <div><p>You can add a roof to most decks, but you need to have it inspected first. If your deck didn&rsquo;t come with a roof initially, it may not be able to handle the weight without some structural changes. You can add additional supports to your existing deck to safely add a roof, and tying your deck&rsquo;s roof to an exterior wall can help add some structural stability, but remember these aren&rsquo;t DIY projects and need to be left to a pro. </p></div>
