How beautiful, my friend, I wish I could do this kind of elaborate and beautiful work, but unfortunately I do not exist in my country. This kind of work is known to me that I am a professional carpenter and I have my employer and I have done a lot of difficult and elaborate woodwork, but unfortunately I cannot do what you do because It is not wanted in my country and I do not have the ability to do that because I have not practiced it before, even though I am a fan and follower of you on RUclips ... ... my friends, is there anyone who would like to help me and send an invitation to his country so that I can practice my passion in this wood industry and I will not forget His grace is always on me, and I will always remember him and I will never forget his favor. This is my number for those who want to help me and communicate with me if they want to do good and happiness for someone like me .... my WhatsApp number +962788565844 😭😭
It’s for the errors that I seem to learn so much. Thanks for including those that you had made and the corrective action taken. We learn by the mistakes we make but if we learn by those made by others - we will be better off.
I'm ripping up my deck (installed circa 1986) to make some repairs/changes. The framing is all pressure treated and for the most part it is in incredible shape. What I did notice, however, and this relates to your use of the joist tape, is that there were some joists that had significant water damage. My theory, is that the nails (yes, they nailed this deck down!) when moving over the years, let water into the boards. People forget that pt lumber is only surface protected. Any penetration/cut in the wood will let moisture in and then it's a countdown to the rot to settle in. So, yeah, I'm team tape now.
As always, great documentation-- more importantly, I respect the drive and hustle it takes to write and produce these videos every week. You are an effective small business owner. It is inspiring to watch this all happen from the outside. Be well.
As a non-native english speaker, I've just learnt a new word: joist! 😂 thanks Johnny. It's funny to me how you guys in US have a specific tool or material for ANY situation! Your shop must have one massive room packed with jigs hehehe Maybe it's why you are more time efficient than us in Brasil. We have to be way more creative here.
Last summer I worked on a composite deck where we also had a band trim around the edge and routed the raw edge. We glued and screwed some of the miters and in the effort of cleaning the glue with acetone we realized that the acetone stained the raw routed edge darker and it was basically a perfect color match to the top of the material. Kind of a happy accident, so we used acetone to stain the entire deck perimeter where we routered the edge. Pro tip of the day lolol
Using a biscuit joiner to cut slots for hidden fasteners on the picture framed solid boards, works very well if you choose to use hidden fasteners that are the “T” shape.
Awesome job and great work, but... It's like I was stabbed at the end by that masonry patio. Anyone else get "created the Mona Lisa then painted over it" vibes? 😂
Why build the wood /trex deck in the first place ??? Just build the paver patio right up against the house. It’s done all the time. Put a small expansion joint or even a stainless slotted drain/gutter along the house
@@rmaloney9976 Right? For all of the trouble that this tiny deck caused. From the protruding joist tails, the sealing, the blocking, all of the finicky and fiddly work to get the details of the facia just right... It all just seems like it was for a whole lot of nothing. If I HAD to do it this way, and was intent on butting a masonry patio up close to it, I think I would at least have just omitted the front fascia entirely and just wrapped the entire front of the rim joist with butyl and called it a day. I don't know, I mean I guess there's something to be said about the landscaping and hardscapes being less permanent than the house structure itself so there's that. I just can't get over how extra and purposeless it feels. Either way, not my project; not my business! 😉
Just a note: Add the tape. Even pressure treated will rot over time. 20 years ago, I put up a deck, tape had just started to be a thing. It was ‘expensive’ so I only taped the areas closest to the house. This year, there were a few areas of the deck that needed to be replaced… The joists that were not taped had actually started to rot. All the taped boards were like new.
Haha I loved the joist counter. I cant remember which part in the series had another specific word, but there was definitely one you could've used a counter for. Great vid as always.
Fantastic, dude! It's looking beautiful! 😃 Too bad they didn't let you make a bigger deck... But it's looking great either way! 😃 Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
I agree that using this composite materials and making mitered corners is tricky. We all like to have nice, tight joints but this requires spacing for expansion. It is almost counterintuitive.
Hi Johnny, great video! Thanks for your tips and tricks. I'm getting ready to do my deck. Can please provide link to the magnetic piece on top of your driver? Thanks.
Are there composite options that look more like real wood than this? I like the benefits of composite and lumber is insanely expensive right now. But I’m just not a huge fan of the look of composite. Obviously everyone has different taste, not trying to knock your choice here. Love this series it’s been super informative!
Yea man, no worries and I can totally see what you mean. This decking matches our deck on the main house, which is why I went with it. I like the look of some of the decking from Fortress, they've got some nice options.
Your main problem with the 1st piece of picture frame was that you were drilling the screws into the edge of the facia boards, instead of the joists. That's why they all kept tilting.
Okay not a bad job, but next time stagger your joints, this will allow for a better appearance even though you hid it, there are plenty of other reasons we suggest staggering, but looks good keep up the work
I am about build a deck myself and this helped with the facia boards. However it may be okay for your size deck but you should never use hidden fasteners with the grooved version of composite boards. Square edge boards should be used.
Good except for BAD idea of routing off the pvc capping to round the edge. The composite core IS made with some wood and when bare it can absorb water and mildew,rot and all the things that capped boards are supposed to eliminate. (the ends are not caped BUT are not seen)
@@craftedworkshop Exactly why the suggestion to gap the ends so they can dry out. BIG difference :THE ENDS are hidden so any discoloration is not visible.
Tell me about it, kind of a waste of material but I didn't want to leave it uncovered just in case you could see it through the gap between the block and deck!
Wow I was waiting for it to get dark. Me thinks Johnny is funded by his dad,or his customers are extremely rich 😳. Would be nice to have this much time on jobs
I am my own customer in this case, Brett, so I can definitely take my time. Also, I've got a newborn and a toddler so I don't typically work late. Definitely self-funded and these videos are how I make a living!
Why do this composite deck any way ? Why not just build the paver patio right against the house. Use a small expansion joint or a stainless slotted gutter. It’s done all the time and would be far less expensive than building this then covering it all up
I know it’s just the way the videos are published, but I just keep thinking, “Man, he spent all that time and money remodeling his shop and he’s been trapped out in his back yard for months. What a waste of rent on the shop.”
I mean, you're not wrong! I haven't spent much time in the shop since October but that'll definitely change once I get to building furniture and cabinetry for inside the house. Also thinking of making some outdoor furniture for the patio just to take a break from construction and get back into the shop.
Great video ogriopher. Terrible carpentry. Why Bother having an apron When you have a patio? Why bother with the deck at all with a patio? That entire deck was a complete waste of time and money

Glad it was helpful!
I appreciate you showing your entire process. Including mistakes,, makes it wayyy more real. And actually is one of the reasons I watch your channel.
Thanks! We all make mistakes, hopefully you guys can learn from mine 😂

Love this series!! Your explanations are perfect and you geek the details. Bravo.
THIS HOUSE IS LOOKING SO SICK!!!!

Much appreciated! Definitely a ton of work to keep it going but I'm enjoying learning all of these new techniques along the way!

I have been following this project from Zimbabwe. Good job
Nice, thanks!

Big time. A less wide paver would’ve looked much more proportional to the tiny deck.
@@BrinkHouse and all that agonizing over the details of the fascia only to cover it all up anyway.
Didn't make much sense to me either. Should have at least been a step down to the patio.
Why build the wood /trex deck in the first place ??? Just build the paver patio right up against the house. It’s done all the time. Put a small expansion joint or even a stainless slotted drain/gutter along the house

Very nice tutorial. Can we use the kreg jig with and decking board brands? Can we use it with deck screws commonly sold at HD and Lowe's? Thanks
Comes with a drink counter so I don't have to keep track, Nice! Enjoy the series, keep it up Johnny!
Hah, thanks, will do!
Haha I loved the joist counter. I cant remember which part in the series had another specific word, but there was definitely one you could've used a counter for. Great vid as always.
Drip edge! 😂 I figured some folks might like the counter, glad that was the case. Thanks!
@@craftedworkshop 🤣🤣
This series is awesome. Can't wait to see the next video!
Glad you enjoy it!
We use Hardie soffit material for the fascia and paint it to match the trim, it’s a nice look.
If it is raining, then the joist will get moist. If it rains repeatedly, we will hear about the joist getting moist over and over again.
Great job bro 👌 am watching ur video from morocco 🇲🇦
Awesome! Thank you!
i whis this counter would have been there for previouse videos xD
nice work =)
I have nothing to say really, but I appreciate your content, and wish to help with the yt-algorithms.
Thanks!
12:38 in the future simply build the home after installing the deck to avoid this issue
Excellent video
Fantastic, dude! It's looking beautiful! 😃
Too bad they didn't let you make a bigger deck... But it's looking great either way! 😃
Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Hah, thanks! Definitely a bit annoying but the patio has more than made up for it, excited to share those videos with y'all.
Your information is beautiful and helpful I hope to be health and safety
clean work was a beautiful design enjoy master
Thank you very much!

Please don't stop posting
Definitely won't !
Johnny, what is the magnetic attachment on top of your dewalt? I would love to get something like this on mine!
I noticed that.
www.fastcap.com/product/prohold
@@okie-rider thxxx just bought one lol
@@okie-rider thank you kind stranger! Dp you use one? If so, do you find it reliable or more of a nuisance
@@pascalgagnon2080 warning once you know about fastcap products your wallet magically becomes lighter.
I love the video series, but holy nervous laugh, Batman!!
Nowhere near as bad as @LivingBobby channel
Awesome work bro!
Appreciate it!
Hello, I can't find the link to the Composite Wood Material? Did you order it through Alibaba? thank you
I am new to the composit deck.. The slider, does that come with the deck or you have to buy them separately?
Nice hat!! (Hi-wire enthusiast)
Thanks! Great beer!
The jig already!!!!!
Love this build series! Was wondering what tape measure you were using in this video? Keep up the awesome work!
I’m always ruining tape measures so have been trying different brands. These are made by Lufkin, they’re nice!
@@craftedworkshop Awesome, thank you! I'll have to check them out.
So, you make a face deck to cover it with a wall ?
Looks great.
Great video and am loving the series but i thought it was supposed to be a weekly thing!?
It was but getting enough done week to week has been super tough lately! Going to be more like 3 videos a month moving forward.
Hi Johnny, great video! Thanks for your tips and tricks. I'm getting ready to do my deck. Can please provide link to the magnetic piece on top of your driver? Thanks.
Glad it was helpful! Here's the link : amzn.to/3ugQ5ZN
Might want to bust out the caulking gun for those miters 😂
How does the boards expand when it has been fastened and glued down?
Is it me or does this tool pre drill the holes on the edge of the boards to high? Also seems like 1/4” gap is too big maybe 1/8 to 3/16?
Hey Johnny what are those EarPods that you have? For the color, they look like from the Jaybird brand!
They are Jaybirds! They work pretty darn well for hearing protection in my experience.
@@craftedworkshop thanks Johny for responding to me despite your busy schedule days.
Cheers from Wisconsin!!
Can it actually be called a deck if it only protrudes about a foot from the house?
Hey bro, will this be for guests or detached office etc? Good job btw, I have followed since the beginning!
This will be for our guests, mostly my parents!
@@craftedworkshop Nice, I am sure they will be very comfortable :)

Fiberon, look at their more premium products like this www.fiberondecking.com/products/decking/concordia-decking
Yea man, no worries and I can totally see what you mean. This decking matches our deck on the main house, which is why I went with it. I like the look of some of the decking from Fortress, they've got some nice options.
What was the Trex used?
Your main problem with the 1st piece of picture frame was that you were drilling the screws into the edge of the facia boards, instead of the joists. That's why they all kept tilting.
Im not looking forward to this project being done. Ive looked forward to every new video. Thank you for showing us the process.
Thanks for watching! Still quite a bit left to do on the inside and there might be another big series after this one, who knows? 😋
Drinking game: drink every time he says joist, board, or fascia
🤮
Some people like a small deck
who edits your video?
Also why spend money on the fascia to cover it up?
Why did you bother putting fascia boards on the deck if you were just going to put a retaining wall in front of it?
Okay not a bad job, but next time stagger your joints, this will allow for a better appearance even though you hid it, there are plenty of other reasons we suggest staggering, but looks good keep up the work
What’s the point to a 15” deck?
I am about build a deck myself and this helped with the facia boards. However it may be okay for your size deck but you should never use hidden fasteners with the grooved version of composite boards. Square edge boards should be used.

Wouldn’t that mean that every cut end would have the same issue then?
@@craftedworkshop Exactly why the suggestion to gap the ends so they can dry out. BIG difference :THE ENDS are hidden so any discoloration is not visible.
Why agonize over the face when you cover it with concrete patio anyway?
I wanted to show the right way to do it for people watching the video! Building this house is just as much for the content as it is for me.
Looks great...too bad the front got covered with the stone.
Tell me about it, kind of a waste of material but I didn't want to leave it uncovered just in case you could see it through the gap between the block and deck!
Wow I was waiting for it to get dark. Me thinks Johnny is funded by his dad,or his customers are extremely rich 😳.

Being composite, why would you leave so much space for expansion? I thought you could go closer, no being pure wood..?
Plastic expands when it gets hot. Just following the directions of the manufacturer.
@@craftedworkshop thanks for the clarification. It just amazes me how you guys in the US are mindful about any material expansion! 😀
Why not rip down the back board or the board next to the house
Uggh been waiting for a new video Binged watched all your other videos
Hah, nice man!
Why do this composite deck any way ? Why not just build the paver patio right against the house. Use a small expansion joint or a stainless slotted gutter. It’s done all the time and would be far less expensive than building this then covering it all up
The retaining wall and the footings on the house would have conflicted, hence the deck transition.
1:16 A Dozen!
🤣
Butyl. Butyl. Butyl. That's a fun word.

Hi first comment
Hey!
Joist
looks like toasted sand.
That's the smallest deck I've ever seen. That's what she said 😆
😂
One mans craftsmanship is another mans hackery. Yikes!!
Great video ogriopher. Terrible carpentry.
Why Bother having an apron When you have a patio? Why bother with the deck at all with a patio?

Where’s the deck 😂
you ruined the edges of the boards and the corners..taking it from a woodlooking piece of material to .. well crap thats obviously not.
You keep laughing every sentence. Not sure what’s going on there.
Because I thought things were funny?
Uhhh……. Use a few different adjectives please. The fake laughs also need to go. Thanks
Stop talking 🙊
