    Is a bamboo deck considered wood? Would you still choose composite over bamboo? I live in Northern CA. It does get hot in the summer, but no humidity.

    Didn't cover the floors, didn't cover floor vent, outswing door would be better, use PVC board instead of wood again to rot. Dude i hope you improve your skills since then.

    Started a trex repair recently, never again, I’d say 4x price for material, 3x time to install time and everything has to be perfect under that “dumb tech” or your Guna have a wavy ass deck, oh lol…. And let’s not forget the time you spend plugging holes…. If a costumer wats trex everyone over quote so we can all go back to using wood like God intended

I have clients asking for bigger jobs now and would like to ask you some questions regarding operating in SC pertaining to LLR and what limitations you ran into. i would really apprecaite it. im not nervous about the work itself, im confident in that. im concerned about LLR, permiting etc. would really really appreciate it.

  • @joetoyota7903
    @joetoyota7903 6 місяців тому

    Your video was perfect for a seasoned carpenter. But for a novice, I would have liked to see the holes drilled to mount the posts, and the bolts used to secure them to the deck. Wouldn't you need a drywall type anchor in the hole before attaching the lag bolt? I never understood how these posts could be secured properly into fake wood, without a bolt through the top with a nut attached under the deck.

    • @spelunkerd
      @spelunkerd 2 місяці тому

      The fake wood is not structural. The screws are long enough to go directly into the joists underneath, which are typically 2X8. The deck needs to be designed to have joists exactly where those four screws line up.
