| Video Discription | This Old House general contractor Tom Silva shows how to save a wood deck from a catastrophic collapse. SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse Tom helped a homeowner repair a deck that was in imminent danger of collapsing due to poor building practices. Underneath, Tom found that a couple of nails were the only things holding the deck's ledger board to the house. Using framing lumber and a sledgehammer, Tom pushed the deck back toward the house and back up to the proper height. With the deck in the proper position, Tom fastened the ledger board to the rim joist of the house with lag screws. For additional support, and to prevent the ledger board from splitting, Tom also used masonry bolts to fasten the ledger board to the stone foundation. He also found that the original deck builder used joist hangers that were too small for the 2x10 joists, so he installed larger-sized timber hangers (designed for engineered lumber) for additional support.
