I’ve seen a lot of bull shit decks that are easily done, lazy craftsmanship. Though this video is a little on the advanced side. This is a legit deck. It really doesn’t get much better than this. It was brilliantly laid out. No chatter. No dumb music. Thanks for sharing this. I’ve watched over 30 videos tonight and this is the one.
How can people legally get away with all the permits and codes. Do they just not ever planning to sell the house so it doesn’t matter
I found the chapters in ruclips.net/user/postUgkxYGamVaHfdHiPlAQaLa7zkwR02OKpGYDU to be very relevant to my project as I embarked on building my first ever structure from the ground up. I especially found this Ryan’s Shed Plans to be of great use when it came to building the roof. I was able to do all the cuts and installation by myself, with a little reference to this Ryan’s Shed Plans.
Such a gorgeous book - each shed is unique and inspiring, and I love all the tiny details Kotite features to help readers imagine how to create their own She Sheds ruclips.net/user/postUgkxe9yi0sulKgsp0VJJCIrLWWkvVqcU7LFR . The feature on Dinah's Rustic Retreat is like something from a fairy tale. It's really inspiring to see how creative all these ordinary people are in making beautiful and useful spaces on a modest scale.
My father built two decks around our house one summer when I was kid. This really makes me appreciate what he did. Because he made it seem like it was just another day in the park.
One of the most straight forward, comprehensive videos I’ve seen explaining each step…and I’ve built decks before. Very well done without making the video unnecessarily long like others.
Thank you for not adding obnoxious music to your montage. It makes it so much more enjoyable to watch.
This was freakin perfect. Well laid out steps to follow, the way shots were filmed and their transition, and the way you speak flows. Thank you! Retreat center projects in the redwoods!
I started my deck about 2 weeks ago following this video and oh my god I feel like superman! Super easy to follow and while it will take some time (5 foot woman with not much for strength) for me to finish, I'm very excited! I've gotten more help with the sections I don't feel comfortable doing and I'm having someone build the stairs for me since I don't even want to attempt that and mess up what I've done. This is tiring work but has been worth it already. THANK YOU!!! Anybody that thinks you can't do this, you're more than wrong! You can! And you will! So satisfying!
So glad to hear that. Enjoying your finished deck will be 10 times more rewarding since you built it!
How much is it costing you?
Thanks to your help, I was able to complete my deck in just under 17 minutes!
what size is the deck and how many people on the job. a 12f X 16f deck takes 4 guys 1 and a half days to complete
There's always that one guy whose head it just flies right over
😂😂😂
Lax God It’s a joke 😆
This DIY home improvement video on deck building was fantastic. It not only saved me a ton of money on labor but also gave me the confidence to take on more DIY projects. Highly recommended!
Late to the party but wanted to let you know you are a great teacher! I appreciate your eye for detail and the craftsmanship of your work!!
You know it's late when you're watching ''how to build a deck'' when you dont even own a house!
Same lool
Don’t have a house. Don’t have any tools. Don’t have the time, money, or patience. Definitely too late lmao
Lmao hilarious
@Andrew Pingwin Preach!! 😂😂
@BigDaddyMattable its 4:07am for me LMAO ;D .
This is the best video I've seen on the basics of this project. Will be watching it about 20 more times before we start ours this spring! Thanks so much!
As a self-made handyperson, this was the best and most helpful deck video yet. The key points that you touched on pretty much answered all of the detail I have been struggling with ie ending with a full deck board
Amazing! You saved my new job with this video. I'm a project manager of a small construction company. I have to bid out all materials and labor. I haven't done this in 20 yrs since my husband passed. We had our own small construction company. God Bless You my dear!
Now that's how you build a sturdy good quality deck. Great job! Best I've seen.
Tip for those building a deck.. Increase the beam size using a free beam calculator like forte, increases the distance it can span unsupported.. Then you don't have to dig as many footings. Cost is usually a wash. Great video!
I’m 23 I’ve been building decks for about a year now and it’s honestly the one thing that makes me feel like I accomplish things in life. Wish I would’ve chose trade school before I racked up $30k in student loans but I live and learn. Hope more young people get into trades.
Sir how long it takes to build a beautiful and durable deck?
No matter how we all ended up here, we're glad we did! Thanks Third Coast Craftsman, this was very educational.
Man i swear , i did framing with my step father for 3 years and hated every day of it , but could never figure out why. Then i watch this man's videos and realise that everything we did was the hard way not the smart way.
Because nobody pays their bills in construction that's why I quit in the 90s and started driving semi no more begging for your paycheck
Those footings are massive! As a deck builder Its rare to find a customer who is comfortable with the extra cost. Im glad to see you put in the extra effort and didnt shy away from a difficult task! Keep up the good work!
The single best deck build video I have seen! Well done Chris and thank you for ALL of the information and video footage. Very helpful!
Beautifully done and very well thought out! Thanks for sharing your knowledge... I only wish when I build our deck next spring I do half as good a job! Thanks again!
This is perhaps the best video I've seen on building the foundation for a deck.
Thank you so much. You are a very considerate person. You also seem very smart. We're purchasing our first home and this is the first upgrade it so badly needs. Thank you for making this video!
Great video I love how you explain the math and steps - I really liked the railing explanation. Nice job and Love your dog, he's quite the stickler for making sure your work is impeccable!
…and another lunch hour flashes by! Great work and a great watch. Thanks!
This is good. You cover everything well, give solid advice, and you don't waste time.
Amazing job! To sit back and look at the finished product must feel good.
@LOWES get my man a bigger miter saw!!! This was a great video explaining this process. I am currently stressing building a new deck and this has really helped me calm my jets. Thanks brother.
One thing you did wrong. I didn't see a beer throughout the entire video. You can't build an outdoor structure, without the presence of a frosty beverage.
What about 16:02 ?
@@meelis79 It could be. I'm not sure. It could be a Red Bull. Or, it could be a Coors Light. Coors Light still doesn't qualify as beer, however. But, good eye.
👍👍🍺🍺😂😂
Patriot4TheTree Real men drink PBR 😂
Ah such a good comment! Now the real question is.... IPA, or no IPA?🤔
Larry Haun taught me what my father never did.
This guy is to the point, practical, step by step, and even puts in some humor and humility.
A teacher of teachers while being single handedly a mentor to hundreds of thousands that will never get to meet him in person to shake his hand or give him a hug. Shout out to this channel for keeping it all flowing.
I thank you one and all who keep this content posted.
My wife and I just bought a house. I haven’t done anything like this before. But I’m going to give it a try
Never seen the speed square under the tape trick when laying out your joists. Looks very effective!
Great video! One of these days I’ll get around to rebuilding my deck and I’ll refer back to this again. Thanks!
Great job and very well thought out, using this as the basis for my deck! Thanks for the help
Your build quality is the best I've seen yet. Thanks for the video.
Im a badass welder fabricator worked very lil with wood but watching this has helped. You do great work man thanks for the lessons
Im in comstruction but i still never get tired of watching things getting built
I did enjoy watching this video and I learned some things.
Great overall explanation to building a deck. At first I thought this was a giant commercial for Lowes, but by the end I was pleasantly impressed.
Thanks for this video.
Wife bought me my first tool set today. Taking it back in the morning after watching this.
Ha ha what did you get? What do you have now?
@@Mike-gz4xn Ryobi at the time. Now i have Milwaukee.
Perfect timing brother. I’m making one very soon.
I hope you got your building permit.
@@billabney243 Who's she
Really nice work!! Thanks the most for mentioning the deck builder app on Lowes web site!!
Very good demonstration of how to build a "floating" deck with no ledger board connection. Makes it easier because you don't have to worry about properly sealing/flashing the ledger which a lot of people don't get right. I would much rather dig extra footings than use a ledger connection.
Deck work was always my favorite. Sweet job, keep it up
This was a thing of beauty!
I don’t understand why anyone could dislike this video. You guys did an amazing job. Great commentary also.
@Liam O’Neil 😁
I can not thank you enough for this video! Helped me so much at my first crack building a deck!
I know this posted 4 years ago, but thank you so much for explaining every step of the way💜💜
This was one of the most informative videos I've seen so far, thank you!
I love your work and your dog he is the Best inspector
great foundation video and wood work was right on point. think I will use this layout soon
All done without a framing nailer, palm nailer and GRK lag bolts. Oh and last but not least a quick drive for the floor boards. You guys are awesome!
Pretty good video. Bonus for telling people to let the wood season before coating with anything. One issue though, in all my years of construction the one thing an inspector will tell you to correct, is the lack of gap in the decking. You could be fishing those boards out of the ocean, but it's still better to finish nail as a spacer to avoid a headache.
13:02 ...why i love the metric system....great job btw
that's nothing, wait till you do some strenght calculations in mechanical engineering, thank god i'm schooled in metric... all kinds of crazy correction factors
60/4=15 ... so 15 free to 13 full ... easy quick mental calculation so I learned that ... am German
Exactly
metric better anyways
That spacer looks rougly 99mm wide
Thank you for sharing the Lowes Deck Builder. I really appreciate it
That was some real craft man skills there. Love that hammer. Thanks for the video!
beautiful work, you're an inspiration!
As someone who inspects construction for a living, this was fun to watch! :)
Great video dude! Thanks for explaining everything so well!! You did a great job!
Beautifully executed!!! Loved it!
A nice clean deck job, what a great improvement to that house for years to come!
Dang, I was just THINKING about putting a deck on the back of my house. Hadn't told anyone, not even my wife. FBI agents really got my back these days🤔
Gabe Larsen creepy isn’t it?
YOUR A DUMB SMARTASS(DUMBASS) ! WE DONT NEED YOU HERE. PEOPLE ARE HERE TO LEARN, WE DONT NEED SMARTASS COMMENTS LIKE YOURS .
my neighbors built a deck last weekend and this popped up on my feed today.....
@@markvylonis you're*
Ik we do. Everyone has a personal fbi agent. And then we have a cia agent and then well idk whats aboce that bc it classified
Great vid and techniques man! This gave me a great baseline for my deck and it was a success! Thank you
wow man what a killer video! bookmarked. i cant wait to get my deck built this spring. thanks for the vid!
Im taking structural analysis now and we’re going over load calculations for girders and beams. So this is pretty interesting to me!!
You are so talented and a great teacher to your team. This video was amazing... I can’t wait for my husband and I to do ours !! Tooo excited.
Thanks mate, great video for me. My plan is to build a new deck next year as summer is on its way in South Australia.
Thanks for the guidance.
Really attractive deck. Really complements the house. Well-done video also: clear, easy to follow.
Thanks for making this video! I just finished my deck-build this weekend based on this design, and I consulted this video probably 1000 times to finish my project. Thanks for making this content!
Make sure to ask your local inspector.....you’re a funny guy
My local what?
Live free or die🇺🇸
I did ask Inspector Clooso and he recommended a haambuuga.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 yup

Thank you for making the video. This has helped me build my first deck. Take care!
I'm finally about to build the deck outside my sliding glass door, this helps a ton, THANKS ✌️♥️🌲🍄
Excellent,Beautiful,Magnificent!
I would like to suggest incorporating benches into the railings because, that nice big deck is going to get real small
after they add furniture, a grill, coolers, and friends!
Thanks for this video! Used it as a reference for today. My 11 year old son and I needed to build a smaller deck. Thank you!
Thanks! You have given me some great ideas to build my deck!
Beautiful and clean job !!! Thanks 🙏
Great video and Ute steals the show!
Great build and simple explanations. One thing to mention, and maybe I missed it, is to call utility companies to come mark lines before digging post footings. Always learn something watching your vids. Thanks man.
Always call Dig Safe before hand, indeed.
This is the Cleanest & beautiful deck building tutorial I have ever seen , jesus ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I about to build a deck for my swimming pool. The information here is pure gold.
This was by far the best video of building a diy free standing deck on RUclips. I just completed the demo of my crumbling concrete steps and built a small 6’x7’ porch following this video. Only difference was that my beams and deck board run parallel to the house instead of perpendicular.
I noticed he never used a level upon building the foundation, can u pls explain why not..I'm a novice.
Ty
@@joshgold6165 He leveled the line after pouring the concrete and cut the supporting posts tot the height of the line. Each post might be a different height because of diffferences in the concrete height, but the tops will be level (with a deliberate, slight downslope for rain runoff)
Just built my first 8x8 floating deck just on deck blocks for a mobile home. My Bosch dot laser was a game changer to shoot in the height of my posts. I learned alot from this video to make things easier for next time. So thank you.
nice job bro... nothing like watching work on ur day off lol... you should do a second video of the stain and landscape part
I learned more from this video than in a dozen other videos I’ve seen on RUclips.
Fantastic demonstration video and great job on the deck. thanks
The dog back like the supervisor/boss most check everything :)

Wow someone that knows what they are talking about. I'm in the trade and I laugh at 90% of the videos I watch. You are very informative and thorough. I enjoyed the video, great work!
If your in the trade then you should know this deck is very cheap and half assed lmao
I agree I'm in the trade and this is the standard way to build a deck and it's very well explained except for the Hangers wich are unnecessary
That's a nice deck! Thanks for sharing. 👍
it's funny how the dog is literally inspecting everything lol
That's the "building inspector" he keeps mentioning
My dog does the same.
lol...building permit. Thats cute.
I hated every time he said "code" and "permit". Ok, lets call the inspector to see if this is secure. Worst case is you break a leg if you fall but that's solely your responsibility of using a deck. You can opt to not use it xD
@@scientist100 I dont know what part of florida he lives in but in my area its a fat ass fine. I cant get rid of my trees without having to ask permission and I have to replace them with another tree.
He prolly just wants to make sure so a 5k fine doesnt show up at his house.
scientist100 I mean.... he isn’t going to make a video and say that he doesn’t care if you follow code. Someone watching could come back saying they watched his video and something could come back on him for false information. And since he recorded building it, he could’ve been fined if they reported the video not following major safety requirements
To be fair, if its unpermitted, you're gonna have a tough task selling it. You are gonna have to demo it before it would qualify for most financing. The value a PERMITTED deck adds to your home value, offsets the ass pain to get it.
Almost all cities have permit requirements to build a deck. Decks 200sq ft or larger and/or attached to the house require a permit
beautiful work, thanks for sharing
An amazing deck, a job well done!
Thanks for no corny music. Thanks for your content.
I'm a fan of ceramic 3" deck screws. Stays tight for the life of the structure
Thank you for posting this video it made me really excited to do my porch railing and steps
Thanks for sharing. Awesome build!!!!
Круто! Всё быстро, чётко и аккуратно. И древесина видно хорошая
Vlad, could not have said it better myself!
I'm not in the construction bizz anymore, but its always great to revisit memory lane. Highest I've built is a 2 story house. Wish I had the chance to build a concrete slab warehouse/building before I left, but watching a deck getting built is fine.
nigga unemployed☠☠☠
Thanks for the video, I work for landscaping company were we do a wide range of installations from patios to wraparound decks, and I wanted to be prepared before show up at the job site, since I have to know so much about so many different skills hahaha
This is an incredibly helpful video. Thank you!!
I knew I had to hire someone to build my deck as soon as he said parallelogram.
🤣
My thoughts exactly. My ruler only goes up to 2 feet.
@@markweinreb2807 You mean 4 inches BAHAHAH!
Lol
Yesssss lol
