New staircase! This is the standard at Patriot Pro Construction.
A lot of decks look good for the first couple years. That doesn’t mean they were built right.
As always, we cut properly notched 6x6 posts so the beams are actually bearing weight correctly instead of depending only on bolts and hardware. Proper footing depth, gravel base for drainage and stability, structural anchoring, SDS structural screws, and the correct hardware throughout the framing package.
Every detail matters.
Most homeowners never see what’s underneath a deck, but that’s the part carrying the load, resisting movement, and keeping your family safe.
The truth is, building code is the bare minimum. We aim higher than that whenever possible because we build these projects like we’d want at our own homes.
This one passed inspection with flying colors, but more importantly, it was built right from the ground up and built to last.
