I would buy a home that you renovated any day! Your work is impeccable! I was showing my husband the other day some of the homes you have done! The deck is going to look fantastic as always.❤
Sewing Bird, thank you! 🙂
I need a new deck and stairs to my mobile. Almost tempted to do it myself :P
Lori, go for it! It's not that difficult. 🙂 Thanks for watching.
That deck will probably outlast that house! The new owners could screen it in and have a really nice outdoor space. I’m anxious to see the tie-in of the roof from house to deck. My deck was attached to the house as it was built before the new ordinance took effect.
Kay, a screened porch is a great idea. We will get to that roof eventually. 🙂
Oh good I've been wanting deck instructions. I have a home that needs 2 decks.
moviemakerwannabe, building a deck is a great DIY project. Go for it! 🙂
You’ve come a long way in your video presentation and with the amount of details in your work your showing us now ,great job and keep the video’s coming sir.
Mark, thank you for your kind comments. I am really enjoying the RUclips experience. I am learning a lot. Thanks for watching. I appreciate viewers like you! 🙂👍
Wow it looks very professional i once built a 12x16 deck for my brother and learned alot from it. I may build one for a mobile home if i do buy one.
Great explanation. Thanks for taking your time and giving clarity.
Finally a deck build that you know what your doing, thank you
Good morning Ken.. You make the work really easy and the way you explain couldn't get any easier.... Once again.. Thank you for posting these excellent videos... Have a great weekend.
manuel, thank you! I'm glad to hear that you are enjoying the videos. 🙂
Very informative! Love your new intro!
Heck yes it was exciting! (pardon my language) ;)
Becki, 😆😆😆
Nice deck and appreciate all the detail. I am about to build one myself.
Beautiful deck. Thanks for the new video.
Sheereen, thank you. Thanks for watching and commenting. 🙂
I love seeing the flashing/water shedding details and the explanation. Also the wood preservative for the cut ends. I have made mistakes on these things before, so I appreciate the learning. I wanted to ask if in your area you have to slope your decks away from the house any, like 1/4 inch to 1 ft? Where I live we get pretty torrential rain sometimes. Although I guess with that 3" flashing you have no worries.? Thanks so much for showing the details. It really helps. I am looking forward to seeing the deck roof work. We have a covered porch and covered deck we need to do for our home, so it's really relevant for us. Thanks again.
Hi, Russ. I didn't slope this deck. It has the deck planks which are not tight and the deck will be covered. If it were an open deck or had a solid surface like Duradek vinyl then I would slope it. That 3" flashing really works to protect the building. By the time the water would get high enough to go over the top of that flashing it will be going over the edge of the deck. Thanks for watching and commenting! 🙂
I’m looking into buying a new trailer this year, they charge an additional 50k or so to upgrade to drywall… I’m going to room by room it, checking insulation as I go. It’s funny I stumbled across this today… we literally just sent out 3 loan applications
Great video!
Thanks
Great instructions, thanks so much. I'd love to see how you do the skirting and the full project . 👍
Damian, thank you. 🙂
Nice sized deck and increases outdoor living space. I was interested in how you put the hangers in after, I think we will try that trick next time.
Sandra, thanks. 🙂
I really like your videos
Matt, thank you. I appreciate you watching! 🙂
Hi..thanks for your video. It is very helpful. I'm am an amateur at this. I have a few questions if u don't mind. 1. Your 4x4 y you didn't put them in the corners of the frame work. Notice they are like a 1/4 from the edge? 2. The 2x8? Sitting on the 4x4 is it just siting there or it's nailed down? 3. My deck not going to be that long but I notice you didn't put any 4x4 on the sides for support...is that just over kill? Thank you for your answers in advance
Another great video! This one really helped me with some deck work I'm finishing up. Are you planning to do a video on building deck stairs?
Hi, Scott. Thanks! I'm glad you found the video helpful. Yes, there will be a video on building the deck stairs where I will explain in detail how to calculate rise and run, layout and build them.
This video will be up soon. I just finished the paver landing today that the new stairs are going to rest on.
I'm going to install the exterior doors next. Then I'll do the steps.
Stay tuned! 🙂 And thanks for watching!
I have frost however in our mobile parks we have to have free standing decks no digging.
I want a deck just not as long maybe some day the price of wood will come down. However it cost to change how trees are cut.
How far back did you place the front supporting posts? Thanks.
Great work explaining as always Ken. I love binge watching your videos. Just to be clear, the ledger board of the deck isn’t connected to the home? I see screws but are they just holding the two beam boards together?
Kevin, the ledger board is screwed to the home. This is done to help prevent the deck from pulling away from the mobile home.
Although the ledger is screwed to the mobile home is screwed do deal with lateral forces only, that would pull the deck away.
Load bearing (downward forces) are supported by the posts and concrete footers underneath.
@@BCRenovationMagazine Understood. Thanks!
Now I know I need to redo my deck.
What was the price on this? Im building this one for my grandma.
Ken, how would you go about building a cover for this deck?
Hello, teaberrywmn. I would basically do what I did in this video. Not the whole addition, but just the deck. I would follow the same look and method of construction.

Thank you Ken.
Helpful video. I'm learning how to build a deck. Wouldn't the flashing go over the boards at the house? Otherwise wouldn't those boards will be sitting in water that's caught by the flashing?
Flashing should go anywhere where water may build up and rest. It’s primary function is to give the water a face to run along and ideally shed the water off instead of it pooling onto the wood which will eventually rot it away; that’s another reason why flashing at the ledger board is imperative it’s the main connection to the house - you don’t want that rotting.
It’s not very good to put flashing over the actual decking boards. It’s always wise to go overkill with flashing but water doesn’t build up and pool on decking boards typically and decking can always be easily replaced, your ledger board cannot.
@@kejada but wouldn't you attach flashing to the ledger board and have the bottom of the flashing go *over* the deck board? In the video, he has flashing attached to ledger board but then the bottom goes under the first deck board
@@BenBen-jl2ft I see what you’re saying. He has it going underneath the decking board because if he put it over the decking board he would be unprotecting the ledger.
He could theoretically run another piece of flashing on top of the decking board as well as underneath but then he would have aesthetic issues.
Pause at 23:42
It would make nailing the flashing underneath the door virtually impossible unless he removes the door beforehand.
The way he’s done his flashing in this is perfectly acceptable and will last a long time.
The only difference between me and him is I put mine on as soon as the ledger is up and I add another ‘lip’ to the flashing and make it into what’s called a Z bar so the flashing runs down the face of the ledger maybe half an inch.
Hope this helps. Flashing takes a lot of visualization (and theory) as you can see.
@@kejada super helpful. Would you then have a deck board sit on top of the z bar or most in front so the board doesn't impede the movement of water down the z flashing
kevyn, thanks for explaining. You saved me a lot of typing. You are right on point. 🙂👍
Is the Ledger board screwed to the house ?
Hi pacmanplayer. It is lag bolted to the main structure, but it is not load bearing on the main structure. It is lagged only to prevent the deck from pulling away from the main structure.
The deck itself is supported by posts and concrete footer blocks. Code in my area requires that decks be self supporting, stand alone structures.
@@BCRenovationMagazine you double checked your local code right? im absolutely positive you know more about this than I do, but im doing a deck right now too, and noticed in my local area, if the deck is connected to the house, and over 250 sqft, a building permit is required, while if its not connected to the home, it can go as big as 1000sq ft before needing a building permit. Either way you got a beautiful deck going on man! im building a 24x12 but mine is only about 3 ft off the ground.
@@GardenisLife Hi, Gardenislife. Absolutely, always check the requirements in your jurisdiction. Requirements vary widely and what is acceptable in one area may not be in another a short distance away.
In our area, there are four different jurisdictions and different requirements all within about an hours drive of each other.
Generally speaking, around here a permit needs to be pulled if the deck is more than 24" off of the ground or if it has any kind of structure built over it.
Repairs and maintenance are exempt.
Most of our work is done on first nations lands, which is a unique jurisdiction.
What size is that deck btw
16'x9' 2:00
Why is the house on blocks?
Mobile homes are usually put on blocks and leveled.
Great job! Well explained LOVE LoVe Love 💕
