It pays to know a guy.
Deck Inspection
A deck inspection can save lives
Here in Central Indiana, we really love our decks! After waiting all winter, who isn't ready to run outside and enjoy a cookout as soon as the weather warms up? Unfortunately, we tend to take the safety of our decks for granted- sometimes with disastrous results. Collapsing decks injure and kill hundreds of people in the U.S. every year. In fact, it has been estimated that around half of the decks in the U.S. are not safe to be occupied, or have deteriorated to an unsafe condition. Often we find that a deck was not built safely in the first place!
Decks inspected for safety
Hoosier Guy Home Inspection includes a thorough inspection of all decks with a full home inspection. We also encourage a deck be inspected every few years afterwards, to monitor changes. We inspect all of the visible structural elements, including the ledger attachment to the house, beam and joist connections to posts, posts to footer connections, and the condition of the decking. Let us worry about the safety of your deck, so you don't have to.
