Is Your Desk Ready for Labor Day Parties

In the last 15 years more than 900 people have been injured or killed by deck disasters in the United States.

Here are five signs that your deck needs attention:

1. Missing Connections. Check the metal supports and connections to ensure that they are strong and in place.
2. Loose Connections. Are railings wobbly or stairs loose?
3. Rust. Metal hardware such as metal connections, nails and screws rust. Replace corroded hardware.
4. Rot. Soft wood--a sign of rot--will not hold under stress.
5. Cracks. Desk boards will crack over time and weakens the structure.
