Depending on what part of the country you live in you may not want to cement the post in if the ground freezes. There are a ton of considerations and pressure treated is high maintenance. If you can get composit decking that will help. Depending on the sticker shock you may one to get more than one quote. If you can ask for references from the contractor and check out some decks he has built. If he is good there will be no problem in getting the references. You only pay in full when the job is done. You pay some up front to get things rolling, then some more when the job is started and then pay in full when the job is done. Hope you are sitting on the deck and relaxingn soon.

Also, is the deck is attached to the house? If so, does he do flashing properly so you don't rot the wall out? (I've seen people do this incorrectly, and end up with major repairs in a 5-10 years...)

Can you check online? WA has a contractors page on its Licensing and Industries (L&I) site. You can check the contractor to see if s/he is licensed and insured. Also the size of their bond.

Per the Internet:
In Ohio, the agency responsible for licensing and regulating commercial contractors in specific trades is the Ohio Construction Industry Licensing Board (OCILB), part of the Ohio Department of Commerce.
You can look up the license status of Electrical, HVAC, Plumbing, Hydronics, and Refrigeration contractors through the OCILB eLicense Center.
It's important to note that residential contractors are not required to be licensed at the state level in Ohio. If you're looking for information on residential or general contractors, you'll need to check with the building department or other licensing authorities in your local county, city, or township. These local entities may have their own licensing or registration requirements.

I was a kid staying at my grandmothers once. I was having raisin bran for breakfast. You know how raisins sometimes have a little black end, that breaks off and lands in the box? Anyway, I was chowing down, and looking at all of the little ends floating in the bowl. As I was getting close to finishing up, I realized they were little bugs. Lots and Lots of little bugs...

I never trusted her cereal again!

Gag

Caught up for the moment...
Let's take a look at what's happening today...

I just caulked the barn door in my guest room. May have to touch up the paint a bit once it is dry...
Go me

I love it... you do great work, @Missk_2022

Rush project at work, so not a lot of time to check in today.

Hope today helps balance things out a bit

Rt 22 watchung nj 7" rain 1 hour. Car floating on highway divider.

Yikes! Scary and awful... what a mess... hope you're able to stay safe

Sleep weasels in three, two, one . . . .

Hope you slept well...

I took a nap from five till 615. I’m hoping I can sleep tonight.

Take 3 weasels and call us in the morning

Yes thank you...

Apparently I am popular with the 20 ye Olds tonight. Haha

I do stay home during our rare ice/snow storms!

one smart cookie

Couple of perfect globes there, Lili

Possibly good if they are local and handy with house repairs!

All of us girls need one for the "boy jobs!"

Ah, selective reading

If you can be corrected to 20/20 and your lenses are clear, it's unlikely your insurer will approve surgery.

Yep - that's the dealio. Lasik would have been nice - I'd still need glasses but with less correction they would be lighter and I'd have more options for frames Still, lot to be said for 20/20 correctability

I love showing off my moons!

So does wonderer

Yes, he does

I thought of something outrageously funny and forgot it before I could post it here.
And it hasn't come back.

There was a bug in my powdered creamer crap.
It landed in cuppa #2.
It was dead.
I fished (bugged) it out and washed it down the drain and have noticed no discernible difference in flavor(u)r . . . .

I was having raisin bran for breakfast...
I was chowing down, and looking at all of the little ends floating in the bowl.
...I realized they were little bugs. Lots and Lots of little bugs...

Family member was on dinner duty. They were so excited... cooking was not a skill or pastime of theirs, so they worked at this recipe.
Everyone was at the table, blessing said, and they raised their hamburger up to take that first bite...
everyone at the table froze... they all saw it, but didn't know how to tell the cook... there was a spider on their patty.
*CHOMP*
Bye-bye, spider
Family member went to their grave without ever knowing

correct on your 2nd try

Went to bed at 11 and up at 530, so pretty good!

Glad you were able to turn it around!!

I was up at 5ish too! I went to bed at 9. I recommend ice cream, ear plugs and a mask.

I recommend ice cream, butt plugs and a mask.
It’s really the key to a good BDSM session.
Isn’t that what we’re talking about???

I have no idea what you are talking about! LOL

I'm quite certain that I don't want to know about your sexual inyorendo!

Are you sure??

How can you be so sure??

ended up taking the mess over to mama’s last night and we had a big fish fry and of course told tall tales about how big the fish were and how hard they fought!

If mama can't come to the party... you must bring the party to mama... just be sure to clean up after, too

Damn! There's no high five or knuckle bump emoji here!

Honestly, if it's free standing I think that's a better design. A small gap between the siding and the deck is a good thing, IMO.

I have a feeling in my water. This means either I am correct or I have a UTI!

But really, I have seen you baring your end on these pages, which was terrifying enough, so I am certain that I do not want to see anything in it!

Lili's moons on the other hand...

Umm false sir. The shark did not crawl up on land and attack the woman. Perhaps it did in its home ...in the flipping ocean... surrounding Maui...but certainly not ON Maui.
