I was recently shopping with some buyers in Roy. We found a house that looked great in the photos but underwhelmed us when we saw the actual home. One thing caught my eye on the back porch where the owner had installed a roof over the back porch.
See anything wrong with this picture? This beam spans about 16 feet and carries the middle load for the roof. There is a 4x4 post holding up the other end. Where is the post at this end? The flimsy screws and L-brackets will only carry the snow load for so long. The bottom bracket is already showing the signs of stress. Beneath this beam is a sliding door to the bedroom. If this isn't fixed properly, the next owner of this home will risk personal injury and a view of the top of the porch roof when if finally collapses.
