(EstateNewsWire.com, March 05, 2013 ) Wayne NJ – Deck repair contractors with HandyPro Handyman Services of Wayne New Jersey are often asked to address common problems with old decks. In today’s world of slip-n-fall lawsuits no one wants to be held liable for an injury sustained on their property. The local handyman recommends a deck inspection for decks over 10 years old.
Alex Cercone, owner of HandyPro Handyman Services has posted a page to his website providing deck repair and maintenance advice. With an estimated 20 million decks in the US, homeowners need to be aware of the potential hazards associated with neglected deck maintenance or improper installation.
Though a deck may appear to be safe and sturdy, the local deck repair handyman provides a list of 5 warning signs to be aware of:
Missing Connections: Improperly built or maintained decks could have missing connection pieces and still appear stable
Loose Connections: Over time, fasteners such as screws bolts and nails can work their way loose from the hangers or brackets which support the deck
Corrosion: Mother Nature can be tough on most metals. Ensure all connections and fasteners are not in the state of deterioration
Rot: Elements such as rain and snow can also play havoc on the wood used for the deck. Look for areas that are discolored or spongy and replace as necessary
Cracks: The boards used to construct a deck will become worn overtime due to water freezing in the cracks which causes expansion which then widens the crack and the problem worsens leaving the boards to be unsafe. If the ledger board becomes detached from the house the deck can become unstable
Deck repair specialists with HandyPro Handyman Service (http://handypro.com/NJ__North_Jersey1.html) recommend an annual deck inspection to be sure it is safe for families and visitors. Deck staining and sealing helps prevent warping, cupping and cracking. Keeping the deck clean will also help prevent mold and mildew from creating a slippery surface.
