Are there any alternatives to deck footings?

• <div><p>Deck pier blocks are one alternative to traditional deck footings. Unlike poured concrete and buried post footings, deck blocks <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/deck-footings-no-digging.htm">don’t require digging</a> or pouring. They’re best for small or low-to-the-ground decks. Keep in mind, though, that not all areas allow the use of deck pier blocks, so consult your local building codes before choosing them for your deck.</p></div>

Q: Do you need to winterize a screened-in porch?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-winterize-a-screened-in-porch.htm">Winterizing a screened-in porch</a> can help extend its life and prevent damage to your porch, furniture, and decor. Removable winterization methods like vinyl panels or vinyl sheeting will allow you to fully enjoy your porch in warmer weather while protecting it from damage over the winter. </p></div>

Q: Should you nail or screw deck boards?

• <div><p>You can either nail or screw deck boards according to your preference. We recommend using 3-inch galvanized deck screws in this guide because screws offer superior holding powder over time. If you&rsquo;re using screws, you can minimize the risk of cracking the boards by drilling small pilot holes before securing the boards to the deck joists. </p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to repair a deck?

• <div><p>Deck repairs cost around <b>$800 to $3,500</b>. However, your cost depends on the type and severity of the repair, as well as the type of decking material you have. Other factors, like location and labor costs, impact the price, too. Boards and railings are the priciest <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/4-deck-parts-you-need-know.htm">parts of a deck</a> to repair, while loose stairs are less expensive to fix.</p></div>

Q: How do you fix rotten deck wood?

• <div><p>When it comes to rotten deck wood, there really is no fixing it in the traditional sense&mdash;it needs to be removed and replaced. While you can certainly do this yourself, we don&rsquo;t recommend it as some of the issues causing wood to rot could have spread throughout your deck and an untrained eye may not be able to notice. The good news is that replacing deck wood isn&rsquo;t the most expensive project, and can seriously increase the quality and aesthetics of your home.</p></div>

When Bobby Sisk (owner of the company) did the estimate it was approx. $2,000. This amount went up to almost $4,000 because he said that he didn't include the price of the stairs in the initial estimate. I told him the way I wanted the deck built and he said I wouldn't like that so he built it...
