looks good decks can be a pain, but generally speaking they are fairly easy. how did you attach it to the house? please tell me that you did leave the 1/2" gap between the rim board and the house and then lag bolted it in or better yet all threaded it in threw the house and tied it into the floor joist of the house(the best way) and yeah i am starting a construction company thats why i knew all that.

Theres a 1/4 spacer on the rim joist, w/ flashing... There is nothing getting behind this deck //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif .. as for attaching it to the house ( via ledger ) just 2x8 treated and 3/8 lags every other off 16 On center
