Q: Can you paint a damaged pool deck?

• <div><p>Painting a damaged pool deck is not recommended if the substrate is crumbling, cracking, spalling, or otherwise actively deteriorating. Continuing deterioration will result in the paint also delaminating or flaking off the damaged surface. Minor damage such as chips or hairline cracks that are not actively deteriorating can often be repaired enough to paint over. A damaged pool deck with a lot of cracking and deterioration should be replaced for best results.</p></div>

Q: What is the four-inch ball rule for deck railings?

• <div><p>While building your deck, you might come across something called the four-inch sphere rule. Essentially, this <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/railing-requirements-for-deck.htm">railing requirement for a deck</a> states that a four-inch ball should not be able to fit through any gap in the deck railings. The gap between spindles and between the decking and the bottom of the railing must be less than four inches to prevent small children or pets from squeezing through the gap. </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: How is the cost of fixing a water dock determined?

• <div><p>Costs depend on dock size, material type, damage severity, labor, and required permits.</p></div>

Q: How do you maintain a portico?

• <div><p>To maintain a portico, you need to ensure that your portico roof has proper drainage. Poor drainage can lead to water seeping into the wooden structure and eventually causing rot. You&rsquo;ll also want to regularly clean your portico columns, removing dirt or scuff marks using a clean, wet cloth.</p></div>
