Ask This Old House’s Tom Silva takes you through how to add a deck to your home by helping two homeowners build the deck of their dreams.
After setting string lines and batter boards to mark the locations for the concrete footings, Tom digs 4-foot deep holes for the footings using a power auger.
Next, they set cardboard tubes into the holes and filled them with concrete.
They then frame the deck using pressure treated lumber and galvanized steel hardware. After setting the posts on the footings and attaching the ledger board to the house, Tom installs joist hangers to the ledger and beams to support the ends of the joists furthest from the house.
With all of the framing completed, Tom installed the deck boards and railings using a very dense wood called ipe.
Where to find it?
All of the ipe decking, 4x4 posts, and balusters for this project were provided by Anderson & McQuaid Millwork
Tom used a pneumatic hidden fastening system to secure the decking to the framing. It is manufactured by HidFast Deck Fastening System
The end-grain sealer is manufactured by Anchor Seal (U-C Coatings Corp.)
The plastic biscuit-type fasteners are manufactured by Eb-Ty
The software that Tom used to create the deck plans is Home & Landscape Design Punch! Software
Tom and the homeowners used a Toro Dingo compact skid-steer loader with an 18-inch diameter auger to dig the holes for the footings. It is manufactured by The Toro Company
The Toro Dingo is available for rent at many locations nationwide, including Richey & Clapper, Inc.

Retired union carpenter here 42 years in the trade for instructional, commercial and residential work. Tom Silva is golden ! best of the best
Even after 40 years of doing this, Tommy ALWAYS teaches me something NEW. Gorgeous deck, both in design and execution. Thank you for this video.
Ive spent many Sunday afternoons as a child falling asleep to this TV show. Something about the vibes of the show is just so relaxing to me.
What a privilege and cherished memory of a lifetime to have the old guard TOH legend Tom Silva helping you with building your deck. I've always admired his seemingly boundless expertise that comes from 50-some years of practical know-how and applied fieldwork. He makes it all look easy but it surely isn't. You're the man Tommy!
Is it important to have gravel under the deck?
Tom is a pleasure to watch every time. He is that uncle I wish I had!!
I been watching Tom for awhile now. He makes the most complicated project seem easy. When he explained things very simple and straight forward!
It is great pleasure to watch
ASK THIS OLD HOUSE and
TOM SILVA.
Anyone taking on this project themselves should add flashing that goes behind the siding and over you ledger board. The way they showed you here has all of the water from the siding shedding directly on the ledger. You don't want that to be the first board that rots.
Yeah my inspector just noted that on my presale. Wish I would have known originally
I literally came on here to say the same thing about the flashing. American wood council recommends flashing past the joist hangers as well. And the lag bolts attaching the ledger should be 1/2”. I’m not a professional or anything i’ve just been reading haha
With respect and my comment is based on my experience as a business person involved with building decks for residential homes. I found that if one mounts the final, what I call a fascia board to finish off the steps or face edge of a deck that that facia board should be overlapped on top by the last top deck board. not as you have applied. And most often you can buy that last board with a smooth edge or without a grove to complete this part of the project. Biggest or main reason is that after a year or so dirt, sand, tree seeds, organic material in general gets in between this final exposed edge. It is even worse for composite material which under the sun will flex outward most times leaving an edge again susceptible to gathering dirt or sand, etc. Then seeds start to grow in that grove leaving a yearly task of cleaning out that exposed grove. Once experienced I changed my application to measure the top board requirement and cutting the first board at the house edge to accommodate a 1/2 inch overlap at the fascia end. Just saying.
Tom Silva, nuff said! I used to watch him as a teen, 54 now and still admire his problem solving gift.
Mr.Silva best contractor ever 👍🙏
“Thats a nice fit”. Biggest understatement ever. Thats a f***ing beautiful fit. Always such amazing perfection
@@Kevin-mp5of Negative nancy, you only post spiteful negative stuff on their channel. Stop watching and go away.
Good call hammerdick
@@johnredcorn8294 Not sure if this is intended to be satirical or laudatory.
@@hammerdick82it’s both, hammerdick
I think the homeowner forgot for a second that he was working with the G.O.A.T. of Carpentry!
Man Tom is one hell of a craftsman. I know it’s just a simple deck, but it was done beautifully and will last a lifetime. Love those banisters, and the Brazilian Ipe turned out great with the stain.
Tommy's kept that festool drill working longer than a cicada sleeps.
It took a Portuguese guy , Tom Silva to show how a true professional and experienced carptender can build a deck. Well done Tom.
Always loved watching this old house, always does a class A job.. Beautiful job on the new deck..
There’s something very satisfying about watching this guy work. Great pro
Silva does great work! 👍👍👍
Kevin taught him all he knows. Lol or was it the little kids who learn quickly ?
@@Guardducksthat should have taken a day or two. I remember when Kevin came on. I was thinking wtf this guy was doing among giants but he grew on me.
The young lady is fearless! Good to see.
Looked like the home owners hadn't done a lot of wood work, but they were game to try. Great workmanship .
Looks like their deck will be worth more than their house, with all that ipe
I was thinking the same thing. Also all those dove tails. That's deck all in all probably cost around 50 to 70 thousand $
“If we were gonna do that in the field that’s a lotta work, so we had the manufacturer do it” for 178$ a board….
@@WoogieboogieOG labour costs. The manufacturer can dip dozens of boards, or spray them in a rotating drum in seconds.
And if out in the field it should rain?
Ipe?
@@corssecurity labor*
Wow great job Tommy.
The watch the art of perfection
Ayyyye, full episodes. Let's go 💪🏽👍
LFG!!! 💪🦅
That was awesome to see the homeowners teaming up with Tommy to get it built! Great job!!
7:19 don't do that Tommy knows better. Pressure treated lumber varies as much as 5/8 of an inch in height. Each hanger needs to be set to account for that. The best practice is to toe nail each joist then install the hangers after
Yes I learned that the hard way and never did it again!
When you run a snap line that is level all the way across as Tommy did, and you position the top of the board to that snap line, the top of the board is level all the way across.
@@scotttovey My read of Justin's comment is that the joist hanger bottoms need to be adjusted to reflect the specific board being placed, so the single cutoff block used won't be a good gauge of where the joist hangers should be placed. Am I misunderstanding?
@@dosadoodle
If he had been that specific and clear,
neither of us would have commented.
@@dosadoodle
I went to the time he posted, you are correct.
Favorite episode guys.
fantastic design and build proces.
A classic plumbers lament, lol, brings a smile every time I hear it 😄
I have seen that "a classic plumber's lament" a hundred times with Tom in a bathtub surrounded by a big bunch of other bath tubs, but I don't get it. What is "a classic plumber's lament?"
@@AVB2 What can go wrong will go wrong
If I could be half the craftsman of Tommy!
Great Work!!!
Ironwood on the deck - pretty awesome
That’s a very handsome design as well
Not readiy available in California.
Man, they have great soil there. That dirt looked like top soil that I have to pay for
Haaaaa,, right,,, thinking the same thing! Need to box it up and sell it on line!
In East Sacramento, the soil is about 12" deep, then you hit hardpan. Basically sandstone. A bear to get through. Some places 100' thick.
I used that the my advantage though, under the house. Just dug post holes 2 foot down to the 5' thick hardpan, jacked up beams, and leveled the house. House now sits on stone.
Such a great a video. Absolutely one of the best.
Wow, ipei boards. Those are so expensive and beautiful. Amazing work
Good job Tommy
Outstanding video.
Tom. Get yourself a ratchet and socket. 😂 Just busting chops. Love This Old House
I like this show. PBS introduced a lot of quality ideas and shows to my life over the years. Thank you
Mmmmm, Brazilian hardwood. Super sustainable.
GOOD JOB MELISSER
awesome love to learn the skill
As usual, amazing and infuriating. Tommy has a tool and solution for everything! Incredible. Great episode, I learned a lot.
Tom is a master wow
I don’t see how he does that it’s amazing. Good job.
Sperience Sony sperience.😉
Ipe is rainforest wood. Buy thermally modified decking instead - it's more sustainable. Otherwise, I love the care these homeowners put into the design... and it's priceless to have the This Old House help bring the idea to life.
Amazing video!
the man is a living legend
Master carpenter
terrific
I like this kind of videos, thakns
My heroes!! 😘
Nice fit no kidding I only wished I could get something that close
Great video Kevin….
Old Tommy still at it!
Dam good job Tom
Sam
We have a 28 year old ipe deck which I have let age. It is structurally as sound today as it was 28 years ago. If it had been a covered deck I’m convinced it would have maintained the natural wood staining. I used deck hangers eliminating all fasteners on the walking surface.
👍🏼 Nice! I wouldn’t have split the deck with a step tho.
Deck worth more than the house. Love it!
Backfill around the concrete forms with limestone and use the removed soil for a raised garden bed or compost pile.
Very cool thanks !$
We are in the process of building a new home,and you guys give me so many ideas.I love your programs. Do you have any ideas on front doors,l am thinking of having some glass. I will be happy,and thanks to all of you,great program ❤❤❤
thats a beautiful job, i wish to to that in romania too, but here is all concrete....wood is beautiful
Awesome layout procedure. Great consulting the local Code enforcement official. The ledger nailing was sketchy. Recommend consulting a professional here. Structural screws are recommended. The direction perpendicular to the ledger is important as well. This requires a look at the house floor framing to insure it is sufficiently connected providing a load path into the deck diaphragms.
LMAO 🤣. What building inspector! After you get a permit you never see them again 😆
Depends. In Sacramento, a roof permit is just a way to make money. Same with a water heater permit.
The deck outshines the house 😅
Thanks lots of on-site Bl
❤❤❤❤my favorite program on TV
Always loved watching this old house, always does a class A job.
ask this old house show cases the true master tradesman/craftsman!
In my next life I wanna come back as Tommy👍🏻
Nice
I really wanted to see what type and method Tom used for ledger board flashing, but didn't see it in the video.
Wow ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I want a "Tommy" deck, too. Tommy built, Tommy approved. Never goes out of style.
More videos like this please!
thank you. I have a question, wasn't the expandable bolt that was inside the concrete short?
If you are in a wildfire area, you want to make sure that nothing like leaves accumulates under the deck to burn and take your house. Maybe some screens behind the skirting they put in.
clearly on the Cape based on the soil...Go about 50 miles east and you can't use that auger machine. All by hand with a spud bar. Tommy is a master though.
Lobstah boards work well too
Well great work really great work to the homeowners that's a beautiful deck I really love it beautiful thank you for sharing
I like to lay out all the deck boards convex-side (or future convex side) up and jigsaw-puzzle the order and orientation to get minimal gaps. That way you're not fighting the natural curves (and shapes - some will vary slightly in width along the length) when you install them.
Beautiful job on the new deck.
Smart move staggering the lag bolts so the wood doesn't split !!!
I would have covered the PT beams with the same Grace Tape that was used on the house and the same with all the joists. I know they're PT, but it really saves the top of that lumber.
That is absolutely correct. Anyone who has demoed a deck will see the rot at the nails or screws. Tommy, Tommy--Can't pre mount joist hangers since the lumber always vary in size up to 1/4 inch
nice deck will change your life depending on the view
Is that a Bostich cordless nailer? How has it held up is it as good as the new offerings.
I hope Tommy will be around when i build my home.
Are those Robertsons? Great build!
A more recent practice I’m seeing is using zip tape or flashing tape on top of the joist and beams to prevent them from rotting on the top.
Great to see Tommy doing his thing! Great LOOKING deck, but man that angled step, what a hazard. Not to mention the loss of usable space.
How is that step dangerous? I'm interested to hear your theory...
20:14 No man can resist the tug and pull just to make sure it is tight. NO MAN!
Def the time to make sure your yard pitches away from the foundation
9:12 My grampa taught me to do this with a transparent hose filled with water. the water level does the trick.
When I built my 14 x 16 deck, I put the 4 x 6 beams right on top of the posts. Deck is now 39 years old, and still works great.
The ratchet to straighten the railing post was clever.
Freakin deck is worth more than the house !!
"I think you'll really enjoy using this deck 5 times a year."
Wish u guys would repost or make new video on how to cut runners for deck steps on uneven landings that the landing can't be changed an is unlevel
All lobstahs on deck
If you don't already know it, you need to use specialized joist hanger nails. They are beefy but not long, since they only have to hold to the 2x material. Might not have been obvious when they were going in. Hand nail or use powered nailer as shown.
Tito's......
Would 16 penny nails be too long?
I’m surprised they never even used hurricane ties. Standard for all my decks no matter the size. Also never saw any sealing of the pressure treated ends.
@@Guardducks No problem if nails are longer (16d=3 1/2" long, 0.148" dia. shank), and stick out past framing member, unless for some reason they would be visible past the finished deck and would be a hazard for tripping, cutting someone, or catching on something moving.
@@customrenovations4363 no lateral tension ties to secure the deck joist in and through to the house floor joists as well.
Isn't this a re-upload?
I believe they are hungry for youtube money.
BTW Ricardo I suggest watch a 13 part series called _What on earth happened_ by Ewaranon to learn that the earth is not a globe.
I got it in my about tab.
Darn, no fancy laser level, I guess I can't build that deck after all
