Hillside Decks on Moving Ground

Diamond Bar Boulevard runs along the bottom of the valley that becomes Brea Canyon, with housing developments looking down on it from the hills on both sides. That is the defining fact for deck work here. Most of these properties have decks projecting out over a grade, and everything about the repair follows from it.

The city also lies roughly between the ends of the Chino Fault and the Whittier Fault, both part of the Elsinore Fault Zone. Ground that moves is hard on rigid coatings and on the joints where a deck ties into a building. A hairline crack at a wall junction deserves attention rather than a bead of sealant.

About 77 percent of occupied housing is owner occupied, so this is overwhelmingly homeowner work: elevated decks, view terraces and long stair runs connecting levels on a sloped lot. Those stairs take the most punishment, carrying the traffic and the water coming off everything above them.

On a deck standing on posts above a slope, failure starts where you cannot see it. Water gets past the coating at the ledger, runs down inside the rim joist and sits on the post caps. Nothing shows on the surface until a section feels different underfoot.

So we open it up, look at the connections, and rebuild what has lost strength before anything is coated. Then the drainage: fall that moves water to a deliberate outlet, not off an edge into the hillside the house stands on.

The Diamond Bar Building and Safety Division protects public health and safety by enforcing the California Building Codes and related regulations, providing plan check, permit issuance and construction inspection. On hillside decks and stairs that inspection earns its keep, because the connections that matter most on sloped ground are the ones buried once the surface goes down.

Waterproofing in Diamond Bar: Your Questions

My deck sits above a slope. Does that change the waterproofing?

It changes where the water ends up. Housing here looks down on Diamond Bar Boulevard from the hills on both sides, and a deck that sheds off its edge puts water into the ground holding the house up.

Should I worry about hairline cracks at the wall?

Yes. The city lies roughly between the ends of the Chino and Whittier faults, both in the Elsinore Fault Zone, and ground movement opens joints. A crack there is a direct path to the ledger.

Can you rebuild the stairs as well as the deck?

Yes. We fabricate custom iron and precast stairs, so a long hillside stair run that has failed at the stringers or landings gets rebuilt properly rather than patched section by section.
