    Your deck looks fantastic! I did the same thing to my deck eight years ago. I used the Trex deck system on my deck. This included the post sleeves, railing, and down lighting on the posts. The only things that needed painting were the support beam, 6x6 posts and the stringers for the stairs. I used the hidden fasteners for the boards and the Cortex screws with the plugs for the step risers and trim boards. The deck still looks great today. Yours should last for many years virtually maintenance free. Enjoy!

    Looks great and is well put together. I haven't see any composite decks that have no maintenance though. Cleaning those white railings is a pain and the decking texture wears out quickly and the boards need replacing. Unless you have lived with a deck like this for a while, these are things that sales guys don't tell you.

    • @JohnBuildsIt
      @JohnBuildsIt  Рік тому

      This is a pvc product with a 50 year warranty, not even a comparison to older composites you have experience with man! Less maintenance as in no sanding, painting, staining, patching. Of course it’ll still need it’s yearly cleaning 👍🏽

  • @phillipklaiber3986
    @phillipklaiber3986 21 день тому

    Watched this because I'm educating myself on resurfacing our deck. The way I see our deck, the bones are solid. We need the surface boards replaced and possibly the railing over time. This is all new to me. The spline board does not exist on our current deck, but I like the look of what you did. When factoring in waste of the boards, I wonder how the best way to pick the 2*6 is. I have just about 24' width on 16" joist spacing. Makes the most sense to butt two 12 footers up against each other and leave 5.5" for a spline? I was going to buy 16 footers and go from there. Regardless of whether or not you respond, very impressive video on all accounts. Well done, sir!
