Those stairs will probably sag in the middle over time. A vertical support would eliminate that. Mine did, and now I'm having to deal with it!

I’d like to see it on a bracket with a 1” lift plate so water won’t sit on top of the concrete with the beam. But it looks good otherwise

Easy to maintain 🎉

just why? why would one build with this garbage. Nothing looks worse than a plastic deck

strikes me using qtrs of inches instead of elevating the IQ and start using cms, mms

That is literally what those boards are for. They’re also missing the grooves on the sides to give you a nicer finished look around perimeter.👍

Hmmmm…..that’s a big gap when using Camo on wood. When the wood shrinks the gap will get bigger. For wood, I wouldn’t go more than like 1/16. Over time 1/16th will easily turn into 1/4 to 5/16ths or even 3/8ths…And for PVC material, no more than 3/16ths…

Nice

How come the overlap came out uneven?

3/16” on all end cuts. You don’t make em tight with wood why would you on composite. Manufacturers all state 1/8-3/16” gap.

Experienced man right there.

Is and overhang going to support any weight given that a railing will be installed around the edges?

Do you not have to leave a gap for a mitre edge?

Wow!!what a revelation

Looks great! I called TREX because I found end caps on eBay but they said not to use them. They recommended using a dark brown exterior stain that matches.

There is a third option that is best of all worlds. Take 2 off cuts and put them vertical on the corner. No exposure to end grain other than below. Looks beat

the top step, the deck doesn't have a nosing on it. But you're adding a nosing to all the other steps.

Yeah... I always notice stuff like that.

This man is not a skilled carpenter

Bad advice. He does not factor in the risers or skirt/facia boards. Only cheap hacks leave out the risers and skirt/facia boards. Not to mention that is not the correct tread material with the grooves smh. 🤷

This is just a theory. The funny thing about a "theory" is theories don't have to be proven. This is what we call "man-sense" which is based on a compilation of unproven theories. Do your research guys

Old time carpenter here. I have used the camp system on a few decks. All redwood on the cali coast (home of the redwood forest)😊 makes for beautiful job and at overhanging areas we toe screw from underneath

Your joist doesn't line up with the rim joist my guy.

I typically find a nice straight 2x4, clamp it, and rip it.

HUGE help! Very informative.

There is an argument for gapping the wood and cocrete. Wood and concrete over time negatively reacts.

Both of those suck. I use the solid Trex and the Facia covers the edge. Those tend to swoop a bit over time even on 16" centers. My deck is 19 years old and still looks good.

Compasite....

God Damn Genius

Thank you.

Eggshell? Ummm... clamshell.

Good idea

How do you go about planning for corner 45s on the outside edges when doing a picture frame style. I am reading a lot of the guys hating the 45 shortly after install due to the composite seperating.

It's all junk

Just don’t by the cheap stuff to begin with. Plus TimberTech has much better scratch resistance.

duh, everyone does this. more valuable content please

you don't build decks you put them together

This is backwards

Thank you so much! The comments about price differences and slipping really helped!

This is so informative! Thank you so much. For the glass panel sealer kit did you use 6mm or 10mm? I am thinking it would be 10mm given the width of the Barrette panel but not sure.

Doing my deck right now: Picture frame/square edge on stairs. Fascia for kick board and stringers 12” OC.

Plugs look way better than screw heads too

Definitely do not do this... they end up warping up if you do it this way. What in the world is this guy talking about??? Lol

How come The Home Depot pressure treated decking boards look completely different from yours?

1 american unit overhang sound perfect

Safety glasses are where?

Common sence,

Imagine building a deck that is $25k to stare at the side of your neighbors house thats 15 feet away…what a view
