Decks for Lexington Homes
The most common failure we see on Lexington decks is the ledger: the board bolting the deck to the house. Done without proper flashing it channels water straight into the band joist, and given winters tempered by the coast but still cycling hard across freezing, with wind accelerated between tightly spaced buildings, that rots quietly behind the siding for years.
A deck is a structure, not a surface. Footings below frost, a ledger flashed properly into the house, and guardrails that meet code - get those right and the decking material is the fun part.
What Lexington Properties Actually Need
- The housing stock here
- Antique houses sit beside recent teardown rebuilds, so a single street can need historic-appropriate repair on one lot and modern structural work on the next.
- Working on the site
- Active construction across neighbourhoods means street access and staging are negotiated with more than one crew.
- Permits and inspections
- Historic districts govern the older sections, and the town reviews scale and siting on rebuilds closely.
What Goes Wrong in Greater Boston
Rot at the ledger
An unflashed ledger sends water into the band joist. It is the most dangerous deck failure there is, and it is completely hidden.
Frost heave
Footings that stop short of frost depth lift and drop every winter until the deck is visibly out of level and pulling at the house.
Unpermitted work
A deck built without a permit and footing inspection becomes a problem at closing when you sell - and sometimes a safety issue long before that.
