I am in Maryland and have a project similar to this one in the video it s a 5 step porch and landing configuration are close to the same this woild be for my sister n law who is haveing a leg amputated and would meed this .... was wondering if you have a materials list for this project so i can get a ballpark number on how much this would cost.. it would much be appreciated... thammk you for your time

Great, until I saw the notching of the posts. Why even bother with extraordinarily expensive 8x8 or 10x10 when you are grinding them out with imprecision and weakening them. Dovetails are great with indoor furniture. 10 year rot failure, here we come.

They're doing a great job. Per code, those 2x8 cross pieces must be fully supported by wood and connected by 1/2 inch stainless steel nuts, bolts, and washers. The workmanship is fine. At least they're using 6x6 PT posts. Too many videos show use of 4x4 posts which will fail county inspection.

When they needlessly notch out half of the post, they are weakening the entire structure down to the same as just using a smaller post. No point in using anything large if you are literally cutting away half the structure, unless they want to mark up materials and rip off the old person they are working that doesn't know any better. This is goofy. Buy 6 x 6 for 70% of the price, and skip the pointless notches entirely, and no fake rabbets to rot out in under 10 years. Also notice some overcuts in the notches, because they used a 6" circular saw instead of a band saw or table saw, meaning the crap is going to fail even faster. @@DD-dh5ls

Hello from Germany, I am planning a wheelchair ramp in nearly this style, too - but for 5 steps with a platform and a turn. I think this is one of the rare videos where the posts were layed on concrete foundation. Have to do the same, because of front yard. Will use more posts, but smaller ones. Thanks for sharing!

Whoever built the porch you replaced probably thought they did a great job. The code violations and lack of construction knowledge are hilarious. New porch done very nicely, although I don’t care for the stair run or railing height compared to deck rails. Also, you need to add a graspable handrail.

Thanks for the feedback. Our area has a very slim economy and our service "professionals" can reflect that. On all rebuild jobs we do our best to work within our clients budget and their specific requests, but almost every single one I'd rather tear it all down and start fresh. It's just not always plausible. I will consider the handguard placement. It felt great at the time and everyone was happy, but it may be best to offset it rather than center. Thanks for offering your input and promoting a new perspective.

Good job.. a little advice might take you a long way. Invest in a post hole digger, runs on gas and makes light work of digging post holes instead of doing it by hand. The best $300 bucks I ever spent. I think i've done about 25 fence jobs alone at a min $2000 labor each job. Do the math, it's worth it.

I had to ask… what was wrong with the porch? I didn’t seem that was about to fall down at all? The ‘re-construction’ process was basically changing the beams and get rid of the concrete blocks bases?
@nexuspropertycare
@nexuspropertycare Год назад
Long Story Short, the 4x4 posts are not rated strong enough to hold the porch roof and the block footers were cracked and had heaved over the winter. These 4x4 posts had stood less than a year and the roof had sagged just over 3 inches. The combination of warped and twisted 4x4s, non structural beam connections, and the shifting ground could have easily collapsed the roof after another bad winter and/or bad storm. It may not have a dramatic appearance of falling down, but that's only because we caught it in time. The far right post was the most severe and if it were to shift off the footer the weight distribution has a high likelihood of bringing the whole roof down very suddenly.

I take it these guys were not the ones who put the deck with a roof over it on blocks instead of footers? People have to pay twice to get their home improvements done because they hire people who don't care about local codes.
@carlosraymundomartinezesq3396
Is notching the 6x6 posts la good idea? It looks amazing, but doesn’t that weaken the structure? I’m asking.
@nexuspropertycare
@nexuspropertycare Год назад
Notching a post does not weaken the structural integrity because the load for the deck is transferred down through the post and beams to the footings as a solid structure. It's much stronger than relying on nails or screws to hold your beam up around the post and remains safe as the deck ages as anything metal will deteriorate no matter how well its protected. It's considered best practice for many other reasons as well, such as shear and torsion force protection. You just have to make sure its tight and transfering the load.
@carlosraymundomartinezesq3396
@@nexuspropertycare thank you! I’m a new handyman so I’m still learning. I guess tight joints would be crucial to transfer the load properly. Really interesting, thanks for the response and explanation.
