Also, in the letter that the company issued (indicating that no tank was found), they state that they cannot scan in areas with "excessive vegetation" and/or patios or decks. 

The backyard is fully fenced but the deck to get to it is not structurally sound and I can’t afford to fix it.

For the house, the move, and the deck that came with it, it was only $56,700 all in.

The tub is installed on top of the deck tile, so tile over tile there probably would give you uneven edges along the tub.

Deck over existing & repoint bricks? 

I suppose if I were to say anything, it is that you are asking the tenant to guarantee a long tenancy but stacking the deck in your favor by requiring them to honor that request without equal protection for their interest.

Unfortunately, a small percentage of tenants will go bad while renting and there is absolutely nothing you can do to prevent it, except not run a rental property business.MikeI was thinking along the lines of setting up a camra at the neighbors so when they take a chainsaw to the deck or throw a brick throught the window, you have evidence.

I am actually using 2x6 T&G pine car decking (untreated) and not even laying any floor covering at all.

Weather looking to build a deck, fence or shed to ad value, or just simple repairs.

It require a lot of work such as roof, landscape, painting, kitchen, bath, and deck.
