Описание: DIY Deck Building: Lessons, Tips, and Challenges from My First Build

In this video, I walk through the process of completing my first DIY deck build, sharing both successes and challenges along the way. Tackling a complex project on a slope and tied into an existing deck, I discuss steps such as permits, working with a draftsman to meet local building codes, and choosing the right materials.
I also highlight crucial techniques for extending the deck’s lifespan, including using ground contact lumber and joist tape. Additionally, I provide insights into helpful tools and resources, like specialized screw systems and the impact of educational YouTube videos.

Despite facing intimidating delays, persistence and daily effort allowed me to achieve a solid, durable and beautiful result.
