Local conditions
Old houses, steep streets
On older homes the ledger, the part of the deck attached to the house, is often the weakest point, with decades of water getting behind siding that was never flashed. A careful builder opens it up before quoting.
Queensborough is the exception: flat, low-lying and newer, with low decks that need good frame protection from ground moisture.
