Decks · York County
Rot at the ledger board, where the deck meets the house, is the usual failure, often because older decks were bolted on without flashing. Footings take freeze and thaw all winter, boards take summer sun, and snow piles up in between. Each town sets its own frost depth, and termites, present across Pennsylvania, go after any wood that touches soil.
Ask how the ledger will be attached and flashed, and whether the builder pulls a permit. Decks more than 30 inches above grade or at the main exit door generally need one, and local zoning rules apply too. Get the Attorney General registration number on the contract.
Nobody photographs the ledger flashing for the brochure, and it is the part holding the deck to the house.
