Love your work. An element I often think would be really cool for context on each new project video is what the client asked for and how you interpreted their wishes into your design.
It looks like they have T1-11 siding on that house. Did you have to cut into that? I'm curious about what to do when you have T1-11 siding that doubles as sheathing, with only house wrap and the interior behind it. Did you pull the siding around the house to shove flashing behind it... and how do you get the sticker flashing back up behind the siding?
We’ve got a small portion of the deck to frame on the right side so that single door will walk out to the deck, we’ll also be replace the single window on the left side with a slider!
Do you guys do any freestanding decks? And if so how does the initial framing go? I do temporary freestanding decks on campers. I assemble the frame then lift it, which only work's because theyre generally 5×5 or 5×7 or such. But its such a pain to get it all level once its stood.
Nice work as allways! But those Windows under the deck, whats the plan there? Those would work as emergency exits in a fire, Will you make an exit under the deck?
We will have a grate on the surface of the deck to allow some ambient light in, and they will be able to exit them in case of emergency, but they aren’t big enough to be considered an egress window for a basement bedroom
I was hoping to watch the flashing for the deck go in, The last video I saw was that its a common problem of contractors not installing flashing as you were demolition a deck to re do.
Great video! It looks like you are doing 12" OC joists? I know Voyage decking says 16OC works and my existing deck is 16OC and i want to install Voyage but concerned about sagging. Care to share your thoughts?
Great method as long as you use it by its divisible it can get as big as uou need. 3, 4. 5 - 6, 8, 10 - 12, 16, 20. Use it all the time. Quick an easy.
He was singing we will rock you from Queen Buddy, you're a boy, make a big noise Playing in the street Gonna be a big man someday You got mud on your face You big disgrace Kicking your can all over the place, singing We will, we will rock you We will, we will rock you [Verse 2] Buddy, you're a young man, hard man Shouting in the street Gonna take on the world someday You got blood on your face You big disgrace Waving your banner all over the place [Chorus] We will, we will rock you (Sing it out) We will, we will rock you [Verse 3] Buddy, you're an old man, poor man Pleading with your eyes Gonna make you some peace someday You got mud on your face Big disgrace Somebody better put you back into your place [Chorus] We will, we will rock you, sing it We will, we will rock you, everybody We will, we will rock you, hmm We will, we will rock you, alright
Do the posts for the deck roof need to go all the way down to a separate footing? And on your project do the helical piles need a higher torque rating for those posts or the same as all of the others.
Any roof carrying posts can typically just bear on the beam . And long as they are directly on top of a pile . And yes those piles will have to be rated for the load above as well .
i was curious about that too but i think it was a 2x6 and when you use the right fastener i.e. lag you can achieve good strength especially laterally compared to a steel bracket
40 1/4 - 10 = 30 1/4 .... 30 1/4 + 1/2 = 30 3/4 .... 10 is 1/2 too much, so add the 1/2 back.. The trick is to round up or down to the nearest whole number, make a mental note of the amount and direction you had to round.. In this case 9.5" inches was your number.. 10 is right there only 1/2 half too much, take the 10 out of 40 and a 1/4 and bam, 30 and a 1/4.. All you gotta do is add that 1/2 back and you got it.. Once you practice this little trick a few times, enough to get the hang of it, you can have the answer almost instantly in your head, no pencil or paper needed..;) The main thing is being able to lock in the difference number in your head, long enough to do the larger number math, then recall the difference number and if you need to add the difference or subtract it.. In this case 10 was too much by 1/2 inch, so you know you gotta add that 1/2 back.. Anyway, hope that helps somebody.. This little trick works with all kinds of math.. 73 x 7 = ?? well, 70 x 7 = 490... 3 x 7 = 21... 490 + 21 = 511
Are you a comedy video or more or less building a deck, at first I though he doesn't have any mexicans on the crew, how can he possibly build a deck without mexicans? Then I see the little fella, every crew should have atleast 2 illegal Mexican indentured servants, I mean workers, you guys are amazingly funny, this is probably the best video I've ever seen....the big dude with the hat, is that Jim carrey
This adjustable saddle is the antithesis of buying a more expensive, bigger Helix Pile. Look at the diameter of the screw ! All the weight is on the “threads “ of that 1” screw ! Why would you do that !?!?? You paid $350-$500 per pile installed, with the BIGGEST helix you could afford, to bear the weight of the deck and now you’ve gone and transferred ALL that weight, think 30-60 people on the deck PLUS a future 6 person hot tub etc - whose total weight went into determining what diameter of the pile and that of the helix is needed and then - by using those 1” diameter threaded saddles, you NEGATED the value of the largest pile/ Helix you could afford! Had anyone thought about this !?
I’m not saying there is anything inferior at all about the metal connectors typical at this location but they don’t provide the stability I feel this does
Love your work. An element I often think would be really cool for context on each new project video is what the client asked for and how you interpreted their wishes into your design.
That’s a great idea!
the construction work place needs to be more like this. Good job fella's
I didnt get to build a deck this year...im living vicariously thru yinze
This is my favorite utube page
Really appreciate that my friend!! The longer you wait, the cooler the deck will be!!
When is toe nailing acceptable vs when do you know to use joist hangers for a deck?
We just toe nail to get things set, then go back and add the joist hangers!
Ahhh makes sense. Thank you!@@THEpremieroutdoor
I built it just as you instructed
Thank you for sharing your experience
Anytime my friend! Glad it helped!
Premier Outdoor Mathematicians…that part had me laughing lol! You guys are characters 😂
He surprised me with that old school knowledge 😂😂

They didn't flash properly. They didn't have a clue what they were doing
Goal: Be as good, if not better, than these guys. Great content, Gents'. Love the vids.
Love it! Glad you’re digging the videos!
Great Stuff! Keep it up!
Welcome to the club nick
Tony should always have a joke for every vlogs 🤣🤣🤣 his a funny guy 🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂
He’s always got some good ones, we’ll have to try and get one in every video 🤣🤣
Great video/tutorial. Just curious where will they access the deck from? Meaning, what room in the house.
We’ve got a small portion of the deck to frame on the right side so that single door will walk out to the deck, we’ll also be replace the single window on the left side with a slider!
Nicks tool belt day laborer. These other guys are a comedy show put on by experts. 😂 these guys are good !

3:03 Ant stare of death for standing in front of the laser
At least one stare of death from ant or it doesn’t feel like a real workday 😂😂
6:55 Felipe in the back like what the fk are yall doing 😂😂😂
Sean is such a hard worker
Thank you, finally someone acknowledges it!
Good seeing Kat in videos again
Best deck build video podcast 🤣

They treated the "new guy" like pure labor. "Go carry those 60 bags".
I was hoping to watch the flashing for the deck go in, The last video I saw was that its a common problem of contractors not installing flashing as you were demolition a deck to re do.
Do you have any associates up in the Rockford area that you can recommend for a rebuild?
Great video! It looks like you are doing 12" OC joists? I know Voyage decking says 16OC works and my existing deck is 16OC and i want to install Voyage but concerned about sagging. Care to share your thoughts?
Have you tried using the 6 8 10 Meath Id for squaring the deck instead of having to do math the figure out the diagonal measurement
Yup! But the further you can go out the more accurate you will be
Great method as long as you use it by its divisible it can get as big as uou need. 3, 4. 5 - 6, 8, 10 - 12, 16, 20. Use it all the time. Quick an easy.
This is the method I use always comes out square
CAN YOU BUILD A 12 X 24 DECK WITH 2X4 OR 2X6 AND WHAT SPACING TRYING TO DO A BUGET THANKS
What? Maybe 2x6 standalone ground level. Certainly not off the ground with footers, posts, beams, and ledger
love your vids. you guys ever use the beam cutter for stair stringers stacked up or prefer cutting them individually?
Thanks man! We always cut them individually!
Felt or Grade D is better than housewrap, but I like to see flexible flashing behind the ledgers as well. Extra insurance.
Great job POL
thanks buddy!!
Guys, sorry if I missed this, but how did you adhere the bearers to the posts and the joists to the bearers?
He was singing we will rock you from Queen
Buddy, you're a boy, make a big noise
Playing in the street
Gonna be a big man someday
You got mud on your face
You big disgrace
Kicking your can all over the place, singing
We will, we will rock you
We will, we will rock you
[Verse 2]
Buddy, you're a young man, hard man
Shouting in the street
Gonna take on the world someday
You got blood on your face
You big disgrace
Waving your banner all over the place
[Chorus]
We will, we will rock you (Sing it out)
We will, we will rock you
[Verse 3]
Buddy, you're an old man, poor man
Pleading with your eyes
Gonna make you some peace someday
You got mud on your face
Big disgrace
Somebody better put you back into your place
[Chorus]
We will, we will rock you, sing it
We will, we will rock you, everybody
We will, we will rock you, hmm
We will, we will rock you, alright
i think your building codes are very differnt from where I live . nice deck
I still think Jose is the MVP

flashing the rb&b siding @ the leadger board?
Your post to beam detail is a scabbed 2x4 ?
Yeah. I am sure it's because he doesn't want to spend the money on proper steel post caps.
i was curious about that too but i think it was a 2x6 and when you use the right fastener i.e. lag you can achieve good strength especially laterally compared to a steel bracket
ok, whats the size of the deck u are building
It will be a little over 600 sq ft!
The blonde handles wood just fine 😮
She's a carpenter!
I cannot believe you had to do written math to figure out that subtraction amount. I'm dying. you guys are hilarious
What kind of tool belts do you guys use? (Commenting on a ton of videos to hopefully urge a response lol)
Tony, Catherine and I have diamondbacks!
@@THEpremieroutdoor thank you sir, I’m gonna check them out

21:45...okay that passed the test. I will sub to u guys...lol
Aren’t decks supposed to slope 1/4 inch per foot ?
You must be booked solid for the next 4 years.
6:10 😂😂😂
I had never seen that technique 😂😂
Lumber sponsor must be awesome for the bottom line lol
Cant do 40-1/4 minus 9-1/2 in your head ???
Where is your tape on the beans?
Yall made me laugh, you get sub
Welcome my friend!!
So where’s the door?
Hey Nick
Are you a comedy video or more or less building a deck, at first I though he doesn't have any mexicans on the crew, how can he possibly build a deck without mexicans? Then I see the little fella, every crew should have atleast 2 illegal Mexican indentured servants, I mean workers, you guys are amazingly funny, this is probably the best video I've ever seen....the big dude with the hat, is that Jim carrey
you guys are funny
Ok, great: u put up the ledger board. I don't attach it to the house
You gotta be kidding me 😂😂😂
you guys talk to much. get to work.
okay boomer
No they don't talk no much
Way to much talking...a bunch of info nobody asked for
Ya, these guys are so Arrogant, I would not hire them because I bet they would milk the job. LOL!!!!!!
This adjustable saddle is the antithesis of buying a more expensive, bigger Helix Pile.
Look at the diameter of the screw !

Had anyone thought about this !?
LMFAO!!!
Painfully unnecessarily over complicated math that is actually very simple.
40 1/4 - 9 1/2
40 1/4 minus 9 = 31 1/4
31 1/4 minus 1/2 = 30 3/4.
Too much unnecessary talking
Nick looks clueless.
I’ve watched 1 min and already they dont know what they are doing
No thx
10:30 nothing wrong with this I guess but this is in no way stronger or superior to any currently used metal beam to post connection.
I’m not saying there is anything inferior at all about the metal connectors typical at this location but they don’t provide the stability I feel this does
Laser level and still got the post short 😂 lucky u didn’t use concrete footings
Definitely amateur hour
okay!
