  • My wife has been asking me for years to build a deck on the back of our house [Part 2]. So even though it is the hottest part of the year I decided, let's build a deck. In this video, I show you the steps and techniques I used to add decking and stairs to our deck. Now some of the codes in my area might be different than in your area, so please always check the requirements before you start building.

    When you are installing the 2x10 at the bottom of the stairs make sure it is Ground Contact Safe material. Most 2x stock at the box stores is not so you may need to go to a lumber store for them. It is a big pain in the back side to dig out the rotted plate only a couple years after you built the steps because it rotted away. You can also put some stair hangers under the stair stringers so it is not always in direct contact with the damp cement of the footer. Secure the hangers to the plate and the stringers to the hanger.

    Great video it's coming along great, i think you got our weather with all that rain as we are into week two of a heatwave.
    Why did you use a Circular Saw and a Pull Saw to cut those stringers, when it would have been much easier to use a Jigsaw?

      You are correct, but I felt like I could keep the cut a little bit straighter with the circular saw instead of a wavy pattern that I would have cut with a jigsaw. 😁

      Agree, a circ saw is a lot easier, faster and straighter than a crazy jig.

    Is there a reason we don't use the deck screws to connect the stringer connectors ? Why use nails here?

    why did you not use joist hangers , here code is you have to use them on the deck joists and the stringers

    You can't install railing posts on the outside of a deck here and meet code.

      Sorry to hear that, the codes can change depending on where you live.

    no g-tape on the joist? it might not be code, but it's the right way to do it.

      48x16 deck here, joist tape would be $300. I bought 5g of Liquid Rubber for
