This is a deck project in Boston/MA. Victorian houses are defiantly a challenge, specially when the existing deck of it has no footings. After figuring it out, we took the decision of black the existing slab and dig a hole that is 5’ deep to set the big foot and the footing in place. It is the crucial part of the project because the footing will carry all the load. After the footings were in place and filled up with concrete, the construction took place. All the frame was done with pressure treated wood and railings were done in cedar. For decking, we have to use a very good king of wood. For the final touch, all the PT posts were wrapped with Kleer trim board or PVC composite material.
