In less than a month, Montgomery County, Maryland, saw two home deck collapses that sent people to the hospital. The incidents are a reminder that homeowners need to monitor their decks closely, and one deck builder said you should start by looking where the deck connects to the house.
“Most of these collapses usually happen when there is no back beam against the house,” said Jose Ugalde, with Deck Master, in Gaithersburg.
Ugalde said it is not uncommon to find decks more than 10 years old that are using the house for support and cannot stand freely on their own. In Montgomery County, that is no longer allowed; newer decks must be supported by a new beam and supports placed a couple feet from the wall of the house.
