Three Types of Deck Foundations
Deck Block
This is the cheapest option. The deck is considered a “floating deck” and will move with the frost. However, once the frost is gone the deck returns to its original position. A deck on deck blocks cannot be attached to a house.
Screw Piles
It is rapaid installation and no need to excavate. Therefore, Screw-piles and helical anchors are well suited to projects located in remote areas where mobilization costs tend to be high and other construction support services are limited or may not be readily available.
Concrete footings
This is the ideal choice for a deck foundation. Footing material involves digging a hole and pouring concrete directly into the ground. Poured concrete footings can be very labor-intensive depending on where you live. Even though they take a lot of work to build, concrete footings are some of the strongest materials available. They are ideal for large decks that are high off the ground. They are also perfect for supporting the weight of a hot tub or other large items.
