Q: Should lattice touch the ground?

• <div><p>Lattice should not touch the ground, as it creates a possibility for rot and a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-pest-control-termites.htm">termite infestation</a>. It&rsquo;s best to leave a gap of 3 or 4 inches at the bottom for airflow and to keep the wood dry. You can add stones, bricks, or other decorative pieces to conceal the bottom of the lattice if desired.</p></div>

Q: What are common signs of rot?

• <div><p>The signs of rot depend on the type. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-does-dry-rot-look-like.htm">Dry rot looks like</a> cube-shaped cracks with a fluffy white, cotton-like texture. Wood with dry rot may also have a strong, musty smell. </p><p>Signs of other types of rot include wood that looks mushy or has black spots. The wood may crumble or give way when touched.</p></div>

Q: Can pros help enhance the aesthetic appeal of a deck or porch during repairs?

• <div><p>Yes, they provide design insights that enhance space utility and visual appeal.</p></div>

Q: How do you support a balcony?

• <div><p>There are several methods of supporting a balcony. Very small balconies, such as Juliet balconies that don't include any usable floor space and don't need to support human weight, may simply require supporting bolts drilled into the home's structure. Cantilevering is a method that requires no additional exterior supports, and larger balconies typically need posts and footings to carry the weight from below.</p></div>

Q: Are under-deck drainage systems worth the cost?

• <div><p>If you want to use the space beneath your second-story deck, then yes, an under-deck drainage system is worth it. Having a drainage system in place lets you run power to the area, so you can install a ceiling fan, lighting, TV, or other appliances to create a comfortable outdoor living space.</p></div>
