According to the International Association of Certified Home Inspectors, only about 40% of all decks are completely safe. Is yours one of them?
The average lifespan of a pressure treated wood deck is somewhere between 10 to 15 years. So you have to ask yourself a very important question. “Is it time to consider deck replacement?” Well, there has never been a better time. According to WMAR-TV meteorologist Mike Masco, we are in for a winter “just as rough if not worse” than last years, with 28 to 35 inches of snowfall in Baltimore City, with as much as 50 inches in northern and western counties. And the added weight of all that snow could send your deck crashing down.
According to a study performed and published by Morse Technologies Inc., USA., the majority of deck collapses between 2000 and 2006 occurred while the decks were occupied or under a heavy snow load.
So maybe it’s time to trade in that old wood deck for a brand new one. Plus, with an average return on investment of 87%, according to Remodeling Magazine, a new deck is a great way to add value to your home.
