So first things first, totally appreciate the channel! It was a big help when I went to redo my deck boards last spring. The ONLY thing that I think needs to get cleared up with this video in particular though, is the 3:00 mark where he's talking about how the wood will dry and how to lay the boards accordingly. When using pressure treated boards, I did them all crown up like he said, and they ALL dried opposite to the way described in the video.... so now they hold water and will thus have a reduced lifespan...So if you're watching this and wondering which way to lay down your boards; A) In most cases just pick the best side if it's pressure treated, and B) lean more toward Crown Down (so that the boards dry in a way that will have the water drain off more easily).

I’ve never built a deck, and my first one is a 650 sq ft monster around our above-ground pool over a significant grade. The deck near the house is four feet. On the far side, it’s over six feet. I’ve spent hours wondering what I was thinking. It won’t be perfect, but it will be solid and ours. Many commenters have given praise to your channel. After watching hundreds of other DIY videos, your content, delivery, and production values stick out as exceptional. This was a stellar, valuable thirty minutes... my shipment of deck boards arrives on Tuesday, and watching your video makes me excited for it to come instead of dreading it.

These are the best deck tutorial, instructional and DIY friendly videos. This gentleman is without a doubt very talented and explains this information so easy. And he does all this while literally showing you throughout his project. I haven’t had to rewind or rewatch his explanations 30x like I’ve done with other videos.
@richpat7574 4 жыл бұрын
The explanation of how the board will cupp is backwards. The board will shrink and warp in the opposite direction of the rings in the wood. If you look at a dry deck board from the end grain you can see the rings in the wood. They should be curving upwards, like they are forming a smile. You can easily remember which is the right side up by thinking smiley side up. .

Just getting boards down on my deck, no doubt all the tips have helped a lot. So far so good, it's a huge deck, one row takes 1 1/2 hrs to cut fix. Got 40 rows to go. But they look great, and it's actually smooth work. Built a jig to keep the screws lined up, looking good. Will be finished in a week. Thanks for the great tips

I love all of your videos. They're informative, yet light-hearted, which I really enjoy. This one made me chuckle a little at 26:40. You just finished explaining why you should use your second hand palm force on the back of the driver to keep the bit from skipping off, and then immediately drive a one-hander in while saying "that's when disaster strikes". Luckily, you didn't need to edit the next few seconds out. lol

I like doing the deck boards a little bit different. I screw down my first board dead straight using a chalk line. Then i work out the gap for about 6 board widths and chalk that line. I fill inbetween the 2 straight boards with decking and i use little wedges and i hammer them into the gaps until it looks like all of the gaps are the same. Its a great way for straightening boards too as the wedges are held firm by the 2 screwed down boards and it seems to go a lot faster than this way. Everyone has there own way theyve learnt or a way they prefer so each to there own

Just found this site, am now subscribed. Found it in time to learn some really valuable tips using like 3”screws on existing framing structures, looking at the grain and installing bowl up, then the 2x4 fulcrum tip, which I know I’ll use as I start shortly a partial deck replacement. Thank You !

What I love about Jeff is it's the real world stuff. The slick shows always fade to black for the tricky stuff - like doing a plunge cut with the jigsaw. Fade too black. When the commercial's over, oh, miracle of miracles, they're ready to go to the next thing. Jeff, you're The Man.

Great video and good content. Really helpful to me. I am currently replacing boards on my deck that was built several years before I bought my house. My deck takes a beating from the sun all day and after 10 years it was time to start redoing the surface of my deck. When it was built they used nails but for the replacement boards I am going back with deck screws. I have a 35 x 20 foot deck so I am replacing over 71 20ft boards. My dad is helping me and we are about half way done. Thanks for the tips.

I have used a car scissor jack to push the hockey stick deck boards into position. It worked great, but I like the fulcrum idea as well. You can also use a wedge and another board to move deck boards that are a little warped.
