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: Should deck skirting touch the ground?

• <div><p>Deck skirting shouldn&rsquo;t touch the ground, especially if you have a wood deck, which is vulnerable to moisture. Ideally, you should leave at least 3/4 of an inch of space between the deck skirting and the ground for more ventilation. Pros also recommend that you incorporate about 1 square foot of space for ventilation for the underside of the deck to every 150 square feet of decking. Proper ventilation prevents mold growth and rot that can damage your deck.</p></div>

Q: What are the different types of porches?

• <div><p>Several <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-is-porch.htm">types of porches</a> are available to meet your needs and style preferences. Some common porch types include:</p><ul><li><p><b>Porticos</b> are essentially a roof over a walkway leading to the home's front entrance. </p></li><li><p><b>Sunrooms </b>are closed-in porches that are an extension of the house with glass or plastic panels that allow optimal sunlight. </p></li><li><p><b>Wraparound porches</b> extend around the entire home, or at least the front and one side, and offer multiple entrances to the house.</p></li><li><p><b>Back porches </b>are an extension of the home&rsquo;s floor into the outdoors. These offer more protection and privacy than a deck.</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to replace a porch column?

• <div><p>The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/cost-replace-porch-columns.htm">cost to install a porch column</a> typically runs between <b>$300 and $600</b>, although it can range as low as<b> $300</b> or as high as <b>$2,500.</b> Most homeowners will pay about <b>$400 </b>for a porch column. The materials you choose and whether the column is ornamental or load-bearing will impact the final cost.</p></div>

Q: How do I know if my deck can support a new railing?

• <div><p>Before installing a new railing, check the condition of the deck frame and joists, especially around the perimeter where posts attach. If boards are loose, soft, or show signs of rot, the structure may need repair. A deck pro can inspect your framing to confirm it meets load-bearing requirements.</p></div>

They put on two decks for my mom. One came out fine but the back deck had excessive nails and a board on the back is already curling. They covered the nails and made it look worse. It looks like a pink putty mess . He will not come back and fix it but made sure he took his cash for the job. ...

"Mike previously purchased supplies and did roofing work for us, and we were pleased. However, he noticed a faulty electrical socket connected to our heat tape and offered to replace it. He requested and was paid a substantial amount to purchase supplies for the socket and stated a return date to be three days later. He did not return, he did not answer any texts, phone calls and emails. Finally, he did respond and gave another return date which was about ten days later but still did not show up or answer texts, emails or phone calls. I am adding to this review: 3/14/2020: I have been reimbursed for the supplies not purchased and the work not done. I have added a separate review but it is still pending. The work Mike did for us was good. The first three times he responded quickly and arrived promptly as promised. Good communication is essential, and the lack of it is why I wrote the negative review. UPDATE 3/16/2020: Our roof was leaking badly. Mike responded to our call quickly, and came to help us on a weekend. He shoveled part of the roof and attended to the horrid ice dam. He returned two more times and shoveled and got rid of two more ice dams. He was a very hard worker and also seemed knowledgeable. I felt that he deserved a good review for the good work that he did on our roof. I also should note that the charge was very high, (hence the lower score for value for money) but we were glad to have someone show up to do the work. He returned the money today that we gave him to do the electrical work. (see other review by James B. - Breckenridge) I do not know why he suddenly stopped responding. I have to add because of that, I would be hesitant to consider him."

Deck Repair questions, answered by experts

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’t pay for claims to repair wood rot damage. Check your policy to find out if wood rot is covered before making a claim.

Deck skirting shouldn’t touch the ground, especially if you have a wood deck, which is vulnerable to moisture. Ideally, you should leave at least 3/4 of an inch of space between the deck skirting and the ground for more ventilation. Pros also recommend that you incorporate about 1 square foot of space for ventilation for the underside of the deck to every 150 square feet of decking. Proper ventilation prevents mold growth and rot that can damage your deck.

Several types of porches are available to meet your needs and style preferences. Some common porch types include:

Porticos are essentially a roof over a walkway leading to the home's front entrance.
Sunrooms are closed-in porches that are an extension of the house with glass or plastic panels that allow optimal sunlight.
Wraparound porches extend around the entire home, or at least the front and one side, and offer multiple entrances to the house.
Back porches are an extension of the home’s floor into the outdoors. These offer more protection and privacy than a deck.

The cost to install a porch column typically runs between $300 and $600, although it can range as low as $300 or as high as $2,500. Most homeowners will pay about $400 for a porch column. The materials you choose and whether the column is ornamental or load-bearing will impact the final cost.

Before installing a new railing, check the condition of the deck frame and joists, especially around the perimeter where posts attach. If boards are loose, soft, or show signs of rot, the structure may need repair. A deck pro can inspect your framing to confirm it meets load-bearing requirements.
