Q: How do I add privacy to my second-story deck?

• <div><p>There are a variety of second-story deck privacy ideas depending on your budget and aesthetic. For starters, you might consider fencing or tall privacy railing that masks a good portion of the open deck. A pergola or an awning can provide additional cover and shade. Outdoor curtains are an easy way to add or remove privacy at your convenience, plus they&rsquo;re a wallet-friendly way to decorate your deck.</p></div>

Q: Can you hang things on Trusscore?

• <div><p>Yes, you can hang picture frames, shelves, and other items on Trusscore panels. For lightweight items (less than 30 pounds), the company recommends using adhesive strips rather than nails or screws. However, you&rsquo;ll need to secure heavier objects to a stud in the wall. In these situations, Trusscore recommends cutting away the panel material and fastening the object to the stud with metal hardware.</p></div>

Q: Do I need a permit to install a window seat?

• <div><p>You may need a permit to install your window seat. Even though it's an indoor modification, some municipalities require permits for any built-ins added to homes. Check with your carpenter or, if you're DIY-ing, do some research on your city's requirements.</p></div>

Q: How long does it take to install a porch column?

• <div><p>Installing an ornamental or <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/front-porch-decorating-ideas.htm">decorative porch</a> column takes around three to five hours. Structural columns take longer because your pro has to install a jack to hold up the roof while switching the column out. If there's any structural damage, it can add several days to the timeline to repair the damage. </p></div>

Q: Do installations include frame and trim work?

• <div><p>Yes, professionals can install new frames, trim, and threshold adjustments for a complete finish.</p></div>
