Q: What is the difference between a deck and a porch?

• <div><p>While the terms <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/porch-vs-deck.htm">deck and porch</a> are often used interchangeably, they are two distinct home features. Porches offer a roof that protects from the elements when coming and going from the house. Generally, porches are on the front of your home. On the other hand, decks are generally built in the backyard of a home and offer no roof or protection from the elements, like rain or snow. Porches typically require less maintenance and upkeep thanks to the roof, but both features require regular cleaning and repairs to maintain good condition.</p></div>

Q: What are the problems with wood decking?

• <div><p>If you have wood decking, there are several <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/5-common-deck-problems-and-solutions.htm">common deck problems</a> that you might encounter. For example, your natural wood boards may fade over time due to things like sunlight, weather, and debris. On top of that, some types of wood decking can rot, grow mold, and attract destructive pests&mdash;including termites, carpenter ants, and woodpeckers.</p></div>

Q: Can I replace just one spindle, or do I need to replace them all?

• <div><p>Yes, you can absolutely replace just one damaged spindle as long as you can find a matching replacement. However, if multiple spindles are damaged or you can't find an exact match, you might consider replacing an entire section for a more uniform look and structural integrity.</p></div>

Q: 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&rsquo;t require digging</a> or pouring. They&rsquo;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 far do you hang a porch swing from the wall?

• <div><p>We recommend hanging a porch swing at least 2.5 to 3 feet from the wall and about 17 inches above the ground to avoid damaging your home. You want enough clearance behind it and on each side of the porch swing to move around safely and avoid the chains rubbing against it.</p></div>
