"Deck Safety is an important part of our company values and mission. Being able to advocate this message to homeowners and retailers across the nation is our duty as a manufacturers and industry leaders." Andrew Pantelides, Regal Ideas Inc.
With warmer weather and more time spent at home, NADRA is urging homeowners to prioritize deck safety and Check Your Deck® this May and beyond. The US has over 60 million decks, with 50 million being residential and 10 million commercial. An estimated 30 million of these decks have exceeded their useful life and are in need of repair or replacement.
As professionals in the industry, we have a responsibility to educate homeowners and businesses on the importance of deck safety. We encourage deck builders, lumberyards, manufacturers, and inspectors to join NADRA in promoting Deck Safety Month® and sharing NADRA's resources with their customers. By doing so, we can help ensure user safety, as well as extend the deck's lifespan, improve appearance, and increase livability.
