But, with\u00a0many decks being elevated and coming off a second floor, an inspection for\u00a0these type of items is critical to ensure the safety of the occupants. \u00a0During a home inspection, we will inspect the deck joists, deck material condition, handrail integrity and safety, stair condition and integrity, support post condition, how the deck is secured to the home, and a general review of the deck finish condition. \u00a0Typical comments contained within a home inspection report will include whether repair is needed at this time, or whether maintenance is needed now or in the near future.<\/p>\n<p>If you are a homeowner, you should perform a visual inspection of your deck on a regular basis. \u00a0Pay particular attention to the presence of wood rot, cracking of joists or planks, and loose hand-railings. These are common decking problems. Regular maintenance is also needed to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.angieslist.com\/articles\/how-often-should-you-stain-your-deck.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">re-stain or re-seal the deck<\/a> material periodically, to ensure rot does not occur causing further safety concerns. \u00a0Tighten any deck screws or nail down any loose deck nails to prevent trip hazards from developing.<\/p>\n<p>At Scott Home Inspection, we take deck safety very seriously, and we have noted concerns with decks during our Denver Home Inspections and in <a href=\"https:\/\/scotthomeinspection.com\/contact\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">other areas<\/a> where we perform home inspections; Boulder, Longmont, Fort Collins and surrounding areas.<\/p>\n<p>Contact us for more information about decks or any other topic you need input and advice on. \u00a0As part of our Ask-Your-Inspector program, you can <a href=\"https:\/\/scotthomeinspection.com\/contact\/\">send us a question<\/a> on your home and we&#8217;ll do our best to help guide you, whether you are a past or future customer, or even if you don&#8217;t live in our service area. \u00a0Visit: <a href=\"https:\/\/scotthomeinspection.com\/ask-your-inspector\/\">Ask Your Inspector<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Inspection Picture of the Week: Deck Safety and Decking Problems Deck safety and deck inspections are an area foremost on the mind of all the home inspectors at Scott Home Inspection.
