Simple task, but looking for ideas of how to do it better
Current:
Wood deck/porch with two 4x4 post holding covered porch. There is plywood or wood siding surrounding post, then vinyl siding and aluminum trim covering all wood. Plan is to cut post off flush at the top
New:
Concrete porch and going back with 4x4 post. Will use concrete anchor which keeps post above porch, and will have 2 side plates holding.
Can bring post up to where previous was cut off and use 3.5 inch screws at and angle, new into old.
