One example of how to attach Your Deck to your house.wmv

This is one method used to attach a deck to a brick house. At Your Deck Company we use 1/2" threaded rod for the ledger connection drilling through the house and attaching a nut and washer inside the house. Another option that is not shown is using 1/2"x10" lag bolts. Always check with your local building codes first.
This is one of the first steps of how to build a deck.

Thanks. You never want a deck to fall down. Especially if its 12ft high and could hold 60 or 70 people.

Where was this deck built? The area i work in the building department is pretty anal about decks on brick veneer. They require a sleeve be placed on the threaded rod or carriage bold so that when you tighten down the nuts to fasten the ledger board, you cant accidentally over tighten and crush the brick veneer into the air gap.
