Get matched with top deck maintenance specialists in York, NY

Q: What type of pro can build a deck?

• <div><p>While experienced DIYers may take on the challenge, hiring a licensed professional is often the best route, especially for larger or elevated structures. A local deck contractor is typically the best pro for the job, as they have specialized experience and are knowledgeable about local building codes, ensuring your deck is built safely and designed to last. Other professionals who can build a deck include general contractors and carpenters, who may be more readily available in some regions.</p></div>

Q: Can I attach a deck to a mobile home?

• <div><p>Yes, you can attach a deck to a mobile home, but it&rsquo;s important that the work be done correctly to avoid the potential for major damage to your home. Many building codes require that any additions to mobile homes&mdash;including decks&mdash;be either freestanding or have their own support structures. Getting permits may require submitting the home's original floor plan, the proposed floor plan, framing details, and more. </p></div>

Q: Why does my deck pop and not my neighbor’s?

• <div><p>Your deck may pop, and your neighbor&rsquo;s deck may not for a number of reasons. Whether or not a deck pops will depend on how it was made, the conditions it&rsquo;s exposed to, and the materials. Improper spacing is a common reason for increased pressure between deck boards. Moisture penetration is another. </p></div>

Q: Do I need to sand a deck before repainting?

• <div><p>Always sand a deck before repainting so the wood is smooth and ready for paint. While you do not need to fully remove paint before repainting, sanding helps remove any areas with weather and sun damage. Sanding also helps remove chipped or flaking paint and opens the wood pores to improve paint adhesion.</p></div>

Q: How far apart should handrail posts be on a deck?

• <div><p>Space deck handrail posts four to six feet apart. If the posts are more than six feet apart, the railing will be less able to withstand lateral forces and is more susceptible to breaking. Additionally, railing posts that are more than six feet apart may not be up to code, and you may face fines and be required to reinstall the posts to bring them up to code. </p></div>
