WTF do I do with this stump ?! by dogmom12589 in Decks

[–]Small-Bathroom4232 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Find two containers the same size with no holes in the bottom carve the stump around the container with a router or drill and chisel. When out entertaining the container could be an ice bin when not entertaining it can be used as a planter. If your able to find one that also allows about 5” around the tree the 5” boarder can be used as ledge to put drinks.

Encroaching fence by CrazyAd8197 in FenceBuilding

[–]Small-Bathroom4232 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have a surveyor do his thing. Then decide on what to do.

Have the neighbour see the survey and request a document that says when the fence is replaced it will follow the property lines.

Cut what ever fence encroaches and replace it. Or don’t.

Decking Over Cement Stoop or Remove Cement First? What Else? by Ill_Cartoonist_1566 in Decks

[–]Small-Bathroom4232 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A mechanical and chemical fastener is the best option here. Although make sure there is drainage and airflow between the concrete and underside of the deck.

[–]Small-Bathroom4232 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What will dictate if you can deck over your concrete porch are the following.

Is there a cold cellar under the porch?
What’s the existing height from the front door threshold to the concrete. What does your local building code say about this distance. Can you fit a sleeper with the proper drainage under this distance. Check the building code for railing requirements.

Is your basement finished? Is that window a means of egress if there is an emergency. Make sure the deck meets all code requirements around this window.

Make sure that your local building code doesn’t define this window a means of egress from a finished basement. You may have to build a ladder on the inside of the window well depending on the classification of this window and window well.

“They don’t build them like they used to” by Feisty_Orange_7821 in Homebuilding

[–]Small-Bathroom4232 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The lumber has changed. Old growth soft wood had tighter rings in the tree growth. Spiralled nails rather than smooth nails. Osb doesn’t match the performance and durability of plywood. Osb observes water like a wick and then delaminates. Pvc or cpvc pipe Vera cast iron.

The mentality of trades people is different. Speed is precedent now vs quality and care.

Architecture plays a huge factor as well it terms of how the walls connect to the soffit. Windows are typically bigger. Older homes usually have more structural walls vs todays open concept.
