- A basic understanding on how to build / frame deck stairs
See more details www.askmediy.com When building deck stairs if you're building them wider than 36" you'll need to use a center stringer. - Хобби
I've watched several videos on how to build stairs. This is, by far, the easiest to understand. Thanks so much for taking the time to explain this in layman's terms!
I'm a "do it yourselfer" and have watched several videos on how to do the stair stringers. I was still confused until I watched this video. This video was so much easier to understand and now we have 2 sets of stairs built without a problem. Thank you.
He is a super teacher. Simple and detailed to understand under 10 minutes. Bless you, man.
Loved your work. I'm an Australian carpenter living in Japan and have been out of the trade for ten years. Looking to get back into it soon so need to brush up on my skills. Thanks to guys like you I can gain confidence by your ideas and knowledge .
i am impressed of your ability to actually instruct properly..
i been watching many stair videos and they dont know how to tell folks how to do it properly, so good going
Thank you very much. It's because I built so many on them and teaching one of my guys on the job site and be exciting lol..
Thanks Dominick, I've done a lot of DIY over the years, but never any stairs, so I appreciate the time and effort you put in to making this video.
Nice to be able to avoid some costly mistakes, but more important is saving my family from breaking their necks.
Dominick, I watched many stair videos before deciding to tackle building my deck stairs. Your camera jumped around a little but it was the best I've come across. You didn't get too technical and explained how to build the stairs in simple straight forward fashion. Managed to build my steps perfectly. Thanks for the information. Keep up the great work. Moe A.
Great job dom
Great lesson. Excellent craftsmanship and a very effective teacher. Thanks Dominick.
I like this guy, hes like your favorite Uncle that comes over to help you out around the house and teaches you stuff. Good video.
I've seen several videos on how to build stairs and never had the guts to put them to use, but I used your lesson and today I built two sets of stairs for my deck and will do the final set tomorrow. it was very easy and not scary at all. Thanks
Oh boy!! Finally an explanation that makes it all make sense to me. I kept buying prefab stringers that I had to retrofit and always had a slither of a step either top or bottom. Thanks
I've watched this video every time I build stairs (three in total). In my opinion, stair building is the more difficult part of deck/landing building. I've read SEVERAL articles on how to do it. All I have to do is watch this when I have to do stairs again, and I quickly realize that all those articles were a waste of time!!!! Thank you very much. You made something difficult easy, and with humor. P. S. Thanks for clarifying not to throw the ruined pieces at a loved one!
You know when I made this video my now X wife was inside. I should've smack her with them. But that's a long story.lol Glad I could help out.
Finally I've had a chance to watch your video with perfect audio sound. This is excellent explanation and tutorial as well. Keep doing good job body . Thank you once again. This is my project for tomorrow.
Awesome, thank you very much.
Dominick, last night i watched this video, today i built my first set of steps. It turned out perfect and was quite easy due to your video. I thank you very much and stay cool man.
Great video I have tried to get my head around stringers and your video just made it so easy and simple to do. I measured and cut the first one today and it was perfect,now I have my template for the rest. Thanks alot.
Thanks for the effort here. You made the process simple, and easy to understand. Saving me much time and effort.. Owe you a cold drink for this one...
Dominick great video! i am a rookie @ DIY. and your video was a great help!! i built my wife and I a 3 tier deck and the stairs look great!!! thanks!!
Wow! Once again you make it look very easy and explain everything very well. Awesome video! I can't wait until the next one.
thanks for the in depth instruction...very few videos take the time to explain how you arrived at the numbers!! thank you and beautiful job
Oh my gosh, I had a guy do a set of my steps for me, now I can contact him to do the other set of steps. Sooooo, I prayed about and watched your video and I cut my first set of strings, actually I cut 3 cause my steps are 4 ft wide. An I got to say so myself, I did a darn good job, thanks to pray and your video. Thanks so much.
Dom you really did a great job with this video. You made it really easy to understand and covered parts that I couldn't find on other videos. You did a better job than Tom Silva on Ask This Old House. I don't think he covered the top or bottom cuts and didn't explain it as well. You also showed using blocks for outside stringers which saves me buying those expensive metal brackets. Thanks again Dom. Great job!!
Awesome video! You are a wonderful teacher.
Great video Dominic. Thanks for your efforts and sharing your knowledge.
Always my pleasure.
LOL we built a deck ourselves that actually looks and works better than a contractor would of made all from watching youtube.
For our deck stairs we used your tutorial and we thank you for this video!!!
Excellent!

I realize this is an older post/thread but just had to say...... thank you for making this process clear enough even for ME to understand. Thanks again and keep up the great work!!

I watch a lot of youtube videos over 10 mins. A few of them are 2hrs worth or more. I think it comes down to your settings.

Best Fukn Stringer Cutting Video On The Entire Internet Fukn Fantastic!💯💯 SUBSCRIBED!!!!
First off sorry for the delay, for some reason I'm not getting emails for comments. Thanks buddy
Thanks I like how you explain everything
thanks for this video sir, you made it very simple, best video i have seen so far from now. normally we order stairs at work and we have pretty consistently used metal stringers on decks, but i feel confident now that we can move out of purchasing our stairs and i can start manufacturing our stair needs in our bosses shop from now on. i cant wait to see the rest of your videos. why is it all the other videos make it sound so complicated ? when it really was that easy?!?!
PS i would like to see a video of you doing routered grooves to slip the tred into, but i can figure that out on my own.
Why? one never knows lol.. Thank you.
exellent ! very through and uncomplicated bravo!
Dom u help explain a part I find confusing, the end of the stringer and the bigining. I am the guy contacted you earlier who got rid of knob and tube type electrical. I passed the inspection. This while caring for my frail Italian mother. You are good at making the complicated clear.
beautiful work
well done i loved it peter moore from ireland
Awesome, love hearing it. Thank you so much..
Really good video Dominic.
Glad you liked it!
Sir, Thank you very much for your video. Merry christmas!!
Good teaching bro thanks a lot
Great video
well explained
Thanks a lot
+fluorosco Thank you very much.
@56GOLDIE Yes, you should cut the 1 1/2" off of the bottom of the stringer. Then when you drop it at the top for the tread thickness the steps will still be level. No one ever shows this step and it is critical to not having a 9" riser at the bottom.
Gracias por subir el video animo
dominick's finest,nailing it everytime ....
Awesome. Thank you very much.
I have been noticing what an awesome instructor you are, but during this video I got really distracted thanks to your beautiful German Shepherd.
Thank you very much. Yes that was Joey. I had him since he was 8 weeks old but had to put him down last year at age 16. He was awesome.
Sorry to hear about your dog.
I enjoy your tutorials though. You helped me with some wiring also last year.
great instruction!
@MEFAD68 I love it when I help someone.
Thanks so much! Great Video
Easy and very easy. Thank you.
Glad I would help out. Thank you.
Simple and understandable!!!!!!!!!
Thank you so much.
Very good. Thank you.
Muchas gracias mifren.saludos de Durango México.dios te bendiga
Siempre un placer
good video man thank you so much
I know. I have just been so busy working. More to come this week.
@Dispyto4u You welcome very much.
VERY GOOD VIDEO THANK YOU..
Thank you.
From 30 years of building experience, I have found that 6--61/2 in. makes a much easier stair to climb.This of course depends on height and age. Good video, well explained. best wishes, Bill
Good job Dominic !
ron picnia
thanks awesome video
@miamitreasurehunter You welcome so much.
My deck height is 15 inches and I am using 5.5 inch risers how would I design this?
@ste670ler Thank you so much. I do try to make it easy for anyone.
Fantastic!
Muchas gracias biejon
Hello Dominick....great video...just one question. At 4:29 in the video when you lay out the first step what is the measurement from the end of the 2x12 to your framing square? It looks like about 2 inches or so but you did not measure. Is this dimension critical??
Great post
Cool, very helpful Thx.
Always
