Q: How long do porticos last?

• <div><p>Porticos last 25 to 60 years, depending on the material used. A portico&rsquo;s roof typically matches the roof of the rest of the home and can be replaced simultaneously. Portico columns have a similar life span if properly maintained and regularly sealed. In some areas, harsh weather and extreme temperatures may cause a portico to wear more quickly.</p></div>

Q: Why does my deck pop in extreme cold?

• <div><p>Cold temperatures can make your deck boards contract. If they don&rsquo;t contract evenly, they can put pressure on the deck screws and cause them to pop out, making a noticeable sound. Winterizing your deck can help prevent this from happening. </p></div>

Q: What ruins composite decking?

• <div><p>Although composite decking is extremely durable, it&rsquo;s also susceptible to extreme heat. Prolonged exposure to sunlight can cause fading, warping, and cracking. Composite also retains heat more than wood, which makes it dangerous to walk on in the summer. You can help prevent heat damage by only building with composite in shaded areas or using rugs to cover the hottest spots. </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: How much weight can a porch swing hold?

• <div><p>Most two-person porch swings are rated to hold up to 500 pounds or more. However, each swing manufacturer has its own recommended weight limits, with some as low as 250 pounds while others are as high as 800 pounds. Always double-check the manufacturer&rsquo;s guide and stay within the recommended range when in doubt.</p></div>
