Robert Jones Posted May 16, 2013 Report Posted May 16, 2013 Can't say that I have ever seen deck boards butted like this without some kind of support underneath it, or maybe I have and am having a stupid moment. Click to Enlarge 43.86 KB Click to Enlarge 35.38 KB
Robert Jones Posted May 16, 2013 Author Report Posted May 16, 2013 Visually, it caught my eye and I initially thought I might be getting punked with the board flipping up routine.

Marc Posted May 16, 2013 Report Posted May 16, 2013 I'd absolutely call it. Cantilevered deck boards. Pun not intended. Marc
Charles46 Posted May 16, 2013 Report Posted May 16, 2013 I would call it in a heartbeat. Like John said, "someday, somebody will get slapped with one of those" or someone will fall on a rotted one, and when they do, guess whose life they will want to make miserable if you do not report it.
Tim Maxwell Posted May 16, 2013 Report Posted May 16, 2013 15 years and I've never seen that. I'd certainly write it.
asihi Posted May 17, 2013 Report Posted May 17, 2013 I would definitely call that. It's a pretty basic detail that somone messed up. It would make me look real hard at the rest of the deck.

John Kogel Posted May 21, 2013 Report Posted May 21, 2013 Denny, you left your client's name on the pic. Oh, well, you told her the deck was kaka. [] Down your way, that's a termite freeway, I imagine.
Stephen Lagueux Posted May 22, 2013 Report Posted May 22, 2013 Decks, so easy to build properly and yet, so screwed up most of the time.
