Sagging from stress...the sag about the middle. Those were the words used by a home inspector describe an outside deck on a property he had inspected.
Getting a job done correctly is the only way to do it. In the end, re-work is expensive but not as expensive as an injury or lawsuit!
As a real estate agent in Brevard County Florida I have seen the results of do-it-yourself-ers gone wild! If you are considering an addition to your home, get the permits and inspections done. If you need a contractor, hire one.
Home improvements without the the necessary knowledge and permits, are not really improvements - just problems that will have to be dealt with later if you try to sell!
