HELLO ALL!
This is my first time here and I am desperate for some advice, please.
Our home has a two car garage (above ground) under a roof covered deck. All of which are attached the the home. The size of the deck is 20' x 20'. I believe the beam on the far exterior wall adjacent to the garage doors has twisted as my roof in that one corner has come down approx. 2 inches. Looking at the outside of wall siding, while using a level, the siding has become warpped from the top to the bottm approx. 2 feet. I should also mention we live in a area where we can have a lot of snow fall on us in a matter of few days (which is taking place right now).
May I ask two question...
i) Can the wooden beams (3 ea. - 2"x10" fastened together) straighten once
the snow load has melted?
ii) How would someone like myself go about repairing the twisted section
without having to rip our whole house apart?
Thank you very much for spending the time with me sharing your knowledge!
Regards,
finesse
