Q: How much weight can a wooden deck hold?

• <div><p>Typically, most residential wooden decks are designed to support approximately 40 pounds per square foot, including the deck&rsquo;s weight and any items placed on it. While this is fine for typical use, it is usually not enough to hold the weight of a hot tub filled with water and people. To safely support a hot tub, your wood deck will likely require reinforcement. Therefore, it&rsquo;s best to have a contractor or a structural engineer assess it before hot tub installation.</p></div>

Q: Are porch columns load bearing?

• <div><p>Not all porch columns are load-bearing, though they can be. Some porch columns are simply decorative. There are <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-do-i-find-out-if-column-between-foyer-dining-room-living-room-decorative-or-load.htm">ways to identify a load-bearing column</a>, like looking for visible seams and a foundation. Also, check to see if the column directly enters the ground. In some porch installations, a contractor will excavate a hole to install a column into the earth along with a buried cement base for stability.</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: Is an enclosed porch considered living space?

• <div><p>An enclosed porch can be considered a living space if it meets certain criteria. For instance, it must be completely enclosed with solid walls and a roof. It should also have a heating and cooling source similar to the rest of the home. Finally, the porch should have direct access to and from the interior of your house.</p></div>

Q: How do you maintain a portico?

• <div><p>To maintain a portico, you need to ensure that your portico roof has proper drainage. Poor drainage can lead to water seeping into the wooden structure and eventually causing rot. You&rsquo;ll also want to regularly clean your portico columns, removing dirt or scuff marks using a clean, wet cloth.</p></div>

Excellent overall. David and his crew worked full time for 2 weeks fixing up the manufactured home I purchased in October. After that they came out once a week to do odds and ends. They are going to sand and stain the deck outside my bedroom in the Spring.
