Installing the Ledger Board and Tyvek

Ledger board

Now that the rotted siding was removed from the house in Milford NH we installed new sheathing. Along with the sheathing we installed a brand new 2X10 ledger board to ensure the deck is adhered to a strong board. Since the area under the deck is a hot spot for water we installed Tyvek to protect the sheathing from moisture.
Notice how careful the team is on protecting the homeowner’s gardens, we work around the garden beds to prevent trampling. Keith and his crew are very respectful of the Homeowners property by taking care of the building and grounds and cleaning the jobsite daily. The next step for this project will be to frame the deck, that we will see tomorrow.
