No joke!! A tornado just missed our house last April. It took out a privacy fence and 2 sheds. We had a really old deck, that should have been replaced 10 years ago, but estimates were so freakin high, we couldnt afford it. Insurance paid for all tornado damage but we only replaced one shed, giving us enough to buy materials for a new deck. With ZERO experience, we built a deck that is amazing, and is maybe 90% of professional quality. It's the little things that I noticed nothing major that brought me to the 90% number. I JUST WANTED TO OFFER YOU A MASSIVE THANKS as we watched your deck videos to literally save us over $10,000 in labor. If there was a way for me to show you I would send you a picture. So much for the work you put into your KZfaq channel

I found it especially helpful that you 1st demonstrated screwing into the deck board then provided Jenna immediate feedback as she was learning the process (such as letting her know she should continue to screw a little further until it hit the metal, etc.) Your communication & teaching skills are top notch & very relatable. Thanks much! Cheers.

I used 3/4" sub flooring sheets and 1/2" top lament sheets. I framed it on 16's,run wiring for 1 ceiling fan, 3 receptacles. I used rolls of brown paper wrapping and glue & a clear coat top and it looked amazing and a very cheap way to have a great looking floor, used installation, light wood grained panelling on my walls. 2 x 6's on my ceiling 5/8's sheets plywood on roof and asphalt shingles. Oh and 1 2 1/2' by 3' window.. never leaked.. I built this entire addition for 3,280 bucks.. and I built it my self , it has lasted 5years with no leaks and very sturdy .. I used 4 cement blocks and 2 caps for my foundation on 4 corners and 2 in middle center and middle between each corner. Sad to say I have to tear it down to move in a new home!!! I BUILT this in 1 month on my own with no help so if you set your mind to it.. and watch videos, get good advice you can build anything.. it is a great feeling when you step back and think omg I did this!!!!! 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗

Great video! I added a 20' x 20' deck on concrete posts right on top of an old paver patio. No digging! I used the slots on top of the posts for the 2 x 8's. Of course it wasn't level, so I laid 2" strips of asphalt shingles in the slots wherever needed for added height before adding the wood joists. That was 20 years ago at least and it hasn't moved. And no heaving in our northern Ohio winters either.

I love your videos. I’ve watched a lot of complicated ideas but yours is basic and I’m a 62 year old grandmother that loves doing things a lot of men wouldn’t do by myself. I’ve made a lot of mistakes and went back and corrected them. I made a 20 wooden walk way that leads to an 8x10 raised deck, looks great. Thinking about doing one my back door. The biggest problem I have is that my property has a very steep slope just at the door it’ll be almost ground level but at the end of the 8 foot it’ll be about a foot higher so it’s difficult getting all four corners level especially when you’re by yourself. Thanks for your videos it really helps.

Thank you for this video. So, we "squared" up our rectangular deck only to find that the joist in from would be 31" and at the rear 34.5" and yet, our cross measuring for squaring both came out to 128" 🙄 So, I decided to just make the executive decision to cut all of my joists at 34.5" and figured that it would all work out. "To be happy with what I've done". Not sure how it happened but it all seemed to work out and the deck appears to be level and flush up against the two side of the house entrance. I did employ many of your tip sand tricks on my first ever deck - 2' off the ground. Thank you sooo much! (It's probably not perfect but she'll do the job and I'm good with that).

We really need to redo our deck. We used indoor/outdoor carpeting to make it last a little longer and so our pets could walk on it without getting hurt. The boards were starting to splinter and separate. We're completely out of our depth and of course my mind is filled with ideas of extending the deck. We bought our house in early 2020, but both my husband and I feel very naiive and worry we will be taken advantage of and not know it! lol So we will be watching your videos again - I already showed him one last Summer... we're also very slow to do a project obviously. ;)

in a lot of cases just because the top boards are bad does not mean the structure under it can't have new boards installed. that will save a lot of time and money. Then you can use my system to avoid screws in the surface and finish it so the new boards last forever.
@tomsherwood327 Жыл бұрын
If you wind up needing to replace a board, I'd imagine it is more difficult to remove when using the camo system as opposed to surface screws? Any tips for removing one? Also did anyone else catch the, "That's what she said" when Jeff said to keep going on the first screw. Haha! I'd also add, as someone who has started to take on more and more DIY projects as a result of Jeff's videos. It is SO HELPFUL to see him teaching someone new in the video. The first time I used an impact driver and started to hear the hammering I thought I was breaking something / the drill wasn't supposed to do that. So just the little tips of how to actually work with the tools, fasteners, etc is so helpful. How to handle the material and little tips and tricks a long the way are awesome.

Hi Jeff. I’m going to be building a deck soon and I came across your videos and I’m learning lots!! When looking for the right wood, what would a lady on a budget look for? I’m not planning on it touching the ground, but definitely want the best quality I can afford. Thanks! Anna

I love how u put the screws in on the side of the decking board! May seem simple but that's also genius! Our back deck could certainly use some work but she's not too bad. The previous homeowner installed it. All ground level and it a 12x30. Would like to make some improvements on it so it fits our lifestyle better. Would like to replace all the nails with screws and do it how uve done it here. He also installed all the deck boards on a slant. They are not just layed down straight like this video. Making adding some decking not easiest imo. Thank you for these videos!!!

So my husband and his cousin had there own fence and decking company I'd go help when I could and YES the clients will come out. All the ones I met told us straight forward we came out looks so nice. They were honest. My husband is now in business for himself in HVAC and his cousin moved to Texas.

Kudos to you for having the patience to teach the homeowner how to drive the screw in, I'd be agitated if I was showing my wife and she was doing that, goes to show how much you assume everyone knows. Explaining to push and then pull the trigger broke the evolution down and made it clear which helped her solve her problem.

Great video and great tips. I have a couple of questions: - When you laminate the sides, can you nail/screw from the inside, so the hardware is not visible? - If you do not build a shed, do you need to add more concrete blocks to reinforce the structure, or one at each corner is enough? Thank you so much so teaching us! I feel more confident in doing DIY with your videos!

2x8 doubled up will carry the whole length of 12' if you want a larger deck then i suggest using a third load transfer location or use 2x10 to go up to 16'. It is obviously cheaper to add load transfer locations than using larger lumber.

I was like WTH. I was just thinking I needed to redo the small deck in my backyard. It's only like a 6x8 floating deck but this video popped up. That is a sweet Camo tool also. The deck on my front could use a refreshing also. The deck is really weathered so I could throw a new deck on it fast and clean with that tool. Its crazy how every time I think of a job for me to do here, your video always pop up😀. Great job and Content.

Great tips. Id like to build a little platform with a shed on it smaller than this but same sort of concept. Just a shed for yard tools and pellets for pellet stove and other riff raff id like to free up garage space. I have a old garden bed next to my garage that was framed in already probably 25 years ago im hoping to use that as a basis for the spot. Ive never built anything so i really appreciate these videos to get these concepts in my head before i build a wobbly deathtrap. Thanks!

When screwing in the floorboards, you are supposed to put the outside screw first because the inward angle pushes the board in the direction of the last installed board. This will ensure your boards will be equally gapped.

For a small deck like you have here, 12'x12', do you think 4x4 is sufficient or would you recommend 6x6 posts? Thanks and keep up the great work!

It seems to me that investing in a laser level that gives you level, plumb, and perpendicular would have reduced your labor significantly by eliminating the multiple times you had to set the deck frame up to locate the piers and dig out the high spot. Measure once, cut once.

Here in Germany the latest 'technology' is to use hybrid boards (organic wood scrapes mixed with inorganic plastics); very smart idea, it will last forever - even on the landfills. But hey, we replaced the plastic straws with paper straws, one sip of milkshake and the straw is melting away. Inconsistency of first world problems.

Composite or hybrid board rot so fast! Also plastic degrades faster than most of its competitive natural materials. In a 4 season northern climate the hybrid boards expand and contract too much to be of any use.

Very well explained throughout the video. I like the fact you left the mistakes in your video and that makes it that much more authentic. The methods and you explained in this video will help me in the future, such as laying out the wood side by side in the store, board orientation. You even included a helper and showed her how to use the tool, she caught on quickly. The tips you share within this build I appreciate, tricks of the trade help the DIYER that doesn't do this everyday. We're never too old to learn a new trick. 👍Thanks Jeff & team 🔨🪚
