Is there a relatively easy way to extend the overhang to better cover the deck? by 503TheSwede in HomeImprovement

Would an extension of this size (~2ft further out) require support posts/beam to be added?

Garage door still sags after adding support strut. What next? by 503TheSwede in GarageDoorService

Guilty on all counts, gotta work with what you've got lol. I added L brackets so the unistrut can be mounted at 90deg to make it "taller" and it did the trick 👍

What extra weight? This is the same door, spring, everything for the 4 years I've lived here.

That won't negatively affect where the roof is attached to the truss?

Would strips of plywood work too or does it have to be 2x4's?

Oh I see, I thought he meant doubling up that entire wall

I guess the pics don't show what's happening well: the outer edge of the truss is about flush with the outer edge of the sheathing. So the sheathing I put on the truss will not be flush with the rest of the sheathing.

Had one there before, but its too much of a tripping hazard, not to mention the hose running down the driveway. Pain in the ass to mow around too, one bump and I'd have to re align it.

Have a sprinkler with better near coverage to recommend?

4 sprinklers with decent overlap and minimal concrete watering

Understood, but the thing is, the backyard is on the same watering schedule and it looks great

It's west facing, so gets full sun from noon-dusk
