New Deck for a Eugene Homeowner

8/28/2018

0 Comments

 
Decks add livable square footage outside of your home and can be one of the most utilized gathering places, especially during the non-rainy months. But, like other areas of your home, your deck will need some serious TLC after years of use.

For example, we recently removed and replaced a deck for a homeowner in Eugene, Oregon. The home has two decks, one above the other. Unfortunately the lower deck began failing. The lower deck was built on pier pads and was not attached to the house.  Over time, water runoff eroded the deck and began pulling it from the patio. In addition, the deck was built too close to an old growth tree, the decking was rotting out, and it was not ‘spanned’ correctly.

To correct these issues, we built a form to pour concrete below the undermined patio, and we dug ruts for water runoff. Next, we laid plastic under the deck and attached a ledger board to the house and patio for the deck, keeping them together. Finally, we then framed the deck to the correct span by adding two joists between each beam. The finished result is shown below.

If you are looking for deck repair, deck replacement, or if you'd like to add a new deck to your home, please give us a call. Fort Rock Construction has been helping homeowners in the Eugene-Springfield area since 2001 and we would love to work with you, too. Give us a call today at 541-767-1611.
