    Another great video, and just in time as I have a deck project much like this in the near future. Big fan of the tape on top of the joists. It doesn't cost that much compared to the wood, takes only a short time to install, and helps protect against rot. If you're a contractor trying to maximize profit, sure, it's an added expense, but for us DIY'ers a little extra protection means doing the job right and sleeping better at night knowing your deck is going to last.

    Good build video. I have to point out for anyone watching that standard Cut n' Seal end cut sealer may only be suitable for above grade applications. For below grade you must use a product that contains a copper naphthenate based end cut wood preservative otherwise your warranty is void and the wood posts will prematurely decay. Dex sells a product for this at Home Hardware.

    @BrentTech Рік тому +101

    We have zero trees... and our deck joists rotted out in 7 years. It was crazy. Pressure treated and all... so I ripped it all apart last year, replaced bad joists, and used joist tape and rubber sealant on all exposed joist tops before putting composite decking on top. That thing should last a LONG time now. Wish we'd done it in advance. To anyone else watching this, I'd highly recommend joist tape even if you don't have trees. It's cheap insurance and will protect where screws pierce into the joists (which is where we saw the worst issues).

    I would say that 90% of composite decking goes 16” OC nowadays. It’s improved a lot since it originally came out. That being said, it’s a great tip to read the instructions and make sure. Also, 16” OC May not be adequate if you are planning a diagonal run of decking too. The manufacturer will specify the right spacing in the literature provided.

    Hi Jeff, At 25:36, you suggested using PL Premium to hold down the picture frame edge ... but you put joist tape down on the joist. So now you have a really good bond between the picture frame wood and the TAPE! I wondered, does the the tape eventually bond to the joist underneath? Not likely. So I went on to the next video, "Watch THIS Before Building Your Deck", and found the segment at 25:45 that showed screws applied to the outer edge and then Camo screws on the inside edge. Confusion resolved! I suggest that that you either cut out this segment or add a brief new segment that explains this.

    Brother, Ill say this. Consider some BREATHING exercises or techniques. Relaxed breathing. This might sound kind of crazy BUT since watching your first video I was completely struck by how much you seem to strain to breath while you are talking. It sounds like you are always out of breath, are working to catch your breath, are nervous breathing or something. Breathing rhythm is a super super important thing when it comes to longevity. They actually have coaches that will help with this kinda thing. relearn breathing techniques.

I've heard that I should do that to allow for movement. The trouble is I don't want to put a space between because those gaps tend to fill up with all of the tree stuff that's surrounding the deck. Is it necessary to put the 1/8 Gap between the boards? Thank you so much for your advice.

      It can certainly shift with frost and it can settle. It might need to be re-leveled, but you should be able to do it easily with such a small deck. A couple of bottle jacks and some shim material...

      If the deck is attached to the house you NEED piles. The frost WILL pull the deck off the house by moving it up and down, this video has a floating deck that is NOT atrached to anything or high enough to need a permit or railings.

      yes it all raises and lowers again in the spring. that is why you cannot attach to the house, and you want to consider how water moves during a freeze thaw scenario.

    hi, maybe i missed it, but after you put a "temporary" 2x8 at the end of the box spring, what did you eventually use there? i assume a 2x10?? and did you finish it like you did the sides? Also, the footing was 1 foot from the end of the box spring? and then it looked like you have an overhang on the joist part of the deck too? if so ho much? I have a the end of a septic field line 10 feet from my back porch so i like the idea of the overhang but not sure how much is too much.. if that makes sense.. many thanks in advance, i look forward to your reply..

    Hi, I live in Etobicoke and I'd like to build a floating deck similar to this one. The gazebo to go on top is 14x12 so I want the deck to be 15x13. Assuming I have all the tools, could you please provide an estimation cost for DIY job. Thank you and have a great day!

    ALWAYS look down the length of the beam. Look for the bow and place it upward to prevent sag or more sag than you need.

    Hi Jeff. I'm from the Netherlands and I am not familiar with tornadoes or mega hurricanes but when a hurricane comes isn't the entire structure lifted? Because the pilars are not fixed into the ground? I always put the pilars into the ground and into some concrete or other stuff to make it more fixed to the ground. Maybe my explanation is not good, English is not my mother language.

  • @kurtislapointe118

    Just wondering, will you need to occasionally get under and shim due to freeze thaw? Like we have here in Manitoba. Also can you use this box beam system for higher decks? Say 5-to-6ft off the ground? Love your videos, and all the tips and advise. Take care eh

      @HomeRenoVisionDIY  Рік тому +1

      for decks above 2' you will also need cross bracing on the posts to protect against sway. Railings and code approved stair install. always check with local building office before building something in case the rules are different where you live.

    • @ajs96350
      @ajs96350 Рік тому

      There is no advantage, it's a detriment.
      Do not use this as an example of what to do, it's butchery at it's finest.
      He said 2x10's can span 16', yes they can, AS JOISTS, not as beams.
      I recommend Scott Brown Carpentry, Essential Craftsman, those guy 100% know the right way to do things.

    13:59 I'll be using this box beam method for my next deck. I have a 24' span. You mentioned that for 5' centers one could use 2x6 joists. If I break up my 24' span into 2 consecutive 12' spans (securing the 2 spans with scrap 2x inside the box frame), could I get away with using 2x8 box beams (instead of the 2x10 you're using)?

    • @teeej86
      @teeej86 Рік тому

      Your referring to a continuous span. One length of timber spanning 24' like you said with a post at 12' is a continuous span at 12' continuous span is also stronger than single span. I really suggest you check your regulation and span tables for what the minimum requirements are for thickness and span distances with those thickness of timber. Safest bet.

    • @adammorgan9304
      @adammorgan9304 10 днів тому

      Check span tables. Jeff’s information is pretty incorrect. 2x6 deck joist 16 oc with no cantilever can span 9 feet. Now, the beam span is different and you should refer to a different table for that information
