Thanks guys ... appreciate the advice. Dug a little more around the most accessible post and the post is actually embedded in the concrete below grade ... they told me that it would be anchored, but doesn't seem to be the case ... looks like I'll wait it out until my mobility is better and tackle it then. Thanks again! Mike

Hello, I had a Veka deck installed a couple of years ago. Very happy with the product but I recently noticed that when they installed the concrete footings, that the top of the concrete is below grade and they buried it about a foot and a half. I was doing chemo at the time and couldn't keep on top of them at the time and only asked questions from what I could see from my living room. I'm concerned with the pressure treated wood that is in the ground ... is there a way to extend this concrete so that it is above grade or install a product to get the wood out of the ground? Deck is 2 tier (about 48"/40" off the ground, so not a lot of space to work with underneath). I've tried to contact the company, but of course, they are out of business ... they verbally told me that they were going at least 4 feet into the ground and there hasn't been any movement in the deck in 2 years, so I'm pretty sure that theconcrete is deep enough ... Thanks. Mike
