🔷 ABOUT US 🔷
We're a DIY family building our "forever homestead" from 15 acres of raw undeveloped land in Tennessee. All of our content is family friendly and safe for everyone to enjoy.
In today's video we continue building our new 12 x 10 free standing deck on the back of our 1988 Palm Harbor Single Wide Mobile Home. Today we show how to build deck stairs -- completely from start to finish. We begin by building concrete forms, and mixing and pouring our own concrete stair landing pad. We then frame up our stairs with store bought stringers and other materials to build a strong, sturdy, and code-compliant set of deck stairs for our home. Let's go!

I'm proud of all 4 of you. How far you've all come. How much you've learned. How you, Sam, are willing to learn from mistakes. You, Angela, for not being afraid as a woman to jump in and work hard and be someone little girls and women alike can look up to. And to the glorious feral children for being willing to learn from your Mom and Dad and also brave enough to try new things. I'm proud of you all. ❤️ I'm so glad you guys started this channel. Keep it up! High five! And a hug!

[@beckypage6041]

Deck and porch looks wonderful, can’t wait to see the new furniture on it! Stay safe 😀

[@chitza3270]

OMG! I’m in the middle of laying a concrete block foundation and digging a French drain. I dislocated my SI joint and I’ve been flat of my back all day. All I could think about was a video from Sam and Angela or Doug and Ashley would get me through this!! Ahhhh. Relief. Thanks guys.

[@sam-and-angela]

Goodness! Happy to help, but hoping for a quick and full recovery for you! Yaaaooouucchh!!!

Wonder Woman! You sure are Angela! Loved hearing the boys play in the background! Looking great!

[@sammcgee180]

Nice job Sam on the steps and the deck Angela you keep sam straight, yall have a great day I've been off grid for a couple weeks

[@janetboozer4415]

Well I know if any projects are done by Sam and Angela they are done right. Great job. Love them. 🥰

[@kathycortez232]

Me too

[@kelleygiambro7542]

So nice to be able to walk up and in the house or out and down. No more using a ladder to do that when you want to do some work inside. Looks great.

[@mlm7598]

Looks fabulous. I thought I saw you both chillin out in a lounge chair on the back deck. LOL Hopefully that will be soon! Beautiful job on the deck and stairs. Looks fantastic and knowing you two it will be sturdy as heck. You two are an awesome work couple and really stick to it until the end and doing it together. Blessings and I am so thrilled for you guys........can't wait to see you grilling and having dinner on the deck!!!!!! :-)

[@suearblaster7355]

I love those black screws they just finish off the deck along with the other black accent parts. I am so glad to watch your journey. God bless your family

[@therealcraigsutton2740]

Great job Mr Sam & Ms Angela!!

[@tracymankey9314]

Sam you are a good carpenter your wife is a hard worker deck is beautiful

[@redmapleleaf4617]

You tube finally did something right for me when they offered your video moving the trailer a few months ago. I thought, hey, that will be cool to watch and I've never missed a video since! Otherwise I'm a bit put off by you tube for all their censorship but so glad they introduced me to you two! My favorite Tennesseans! lol

[@sam-and-angela]

That is awesome to hear! We are very happy to be able to provide you with a little escape and enjoyable content. :)

[@lindajc123]

Just a little concerned about the slab sticking out down by the first step. If you have your hands full and are looking at the first step, you may trip on the slab sticking out, but not sticking out far enough to be a step. Make sense?

[@jennifervalentine7519]

Sam, you did a Beautiful job! You both are Wonderful together! I Love watching! Thank you 🤗💕

[@janetkoball44]

Great job. The front and back look strong and good looking. I appreciate you all teaching us. See you next time.

[@sandrahoglan7452]

Love those decks, can't wait to see how Angela puts her touch on them.Many wonderful nights setting outside. Love this family I think your awesome.

[@rubberdc]

Good afternoon Sam and Angela , hope youre doing great today , erm this week.

[@JABBO56]

Wonder Woman & Super Sam. Happy for you guys.🥰🥰🥰

[@HoneyHollowHomestead]

Looks AWESOME! How about a shot of Sam and Angela chilling on the deck with a tall glass of iced tea. 😁 (Move in date fast approaching?)

[@rubberdc]

I DO love the way Angela shrugs and smiles atthe same time , fully enjoying her steps .

[@bubbasthoughts899]

Sam, if I may, I would use a 1/4" or 1/2" router bit on the handrails to get rid of splinters accidents, most people use the 1/4" bits but I love the 1/2" more, just my taste on it,, Later

[@barbaradoye1989]

Beautiful! So excited for you and your family! Can't wait to see what Angela bought! Take care!

[@trxtech3010]

I have fun doing concrete. You seem like you got a pretty good hand in it. I would ay let the Concrete set up a little longer before running a trowel over it. Great work guys I am loving it. I absolutly hope KZbin pays you guys what you're worth! You deserve every penny. Just FYI I always give 1 Ad Click per video, hope it helps.

[@carolweyandt2925]

Everything looks great, can’t wait to see what you guys will do next. Keep up the good work. Stay safe and God bless

[@reneebrown9391]

Soooo close to moving in!!!! Great job. Sam, I need you to come re-build our deck and porch cause I know it'll be done right! And of course, you'll have to bring Wonder Woman!

[@carolmartell9051]

Sam and Angela are the best 😃

[@ericjohnson1008]

Okay y'all are now the deck masters. Y'all are getting things closer and closer to be done. It's getting exciting.

[@dianamartin9295]

I think all 4 of you work so hard and are in your home very soon to get some enjoyment

[@kscheuerman5378]

Sam, you and Wonder woman did a fantastic job!!! I will see you next time. God Bless you both

[@hollyhasegawa6095]

Hi Sam and Angela, this back deck is so awesome, I really love how it turned out and I agree those handrails are so beautiful, it really does make it look so complete. That back deck is so large and really great to hang out on, I wish that I had someone that could build me an awesome deck like this. My son and his dad have a covered deck that they will be fixing the bottom because the wood is damaged because of the weather getting it wet with the carpet the previous owners put on it, but my ex which is my son's dad is a contractor and really good at building and fixing things. I was so excited to see this video it was so much fun to watch, and I will be looking forward to your next video. I hope you have a great week ahead, sending love and hugs, bye for now. 😂🥰🤗💜💜💞

[@kristiecarver6923]

Awesome job w the deck Sam n Angela as always! I laughed so hard when Sam was arguing w the handrail n said oh no that's no how we roll 😂😂😂 ... N Angela beautimus is so a word!! Y'all have a wonderful weekend 😊

[@larrypurfield6744]

Great Job Sam & Angela👷‍♂👷‍♀

[@alancall5113]

Teamwork make the dream work Nice job I could never work with my wife like that . She is a definite keeper👍

[@lechatbotte.]

Looking better and better with each video. I love how you adapt improvise and overcome the obstacles. Can hardly wait for move in day. That was just a baby 🦈 drill lol

[@seekerbee4494]

One step closer to moving in, yeah!🎉

[@dorothyweimer9173]

I can't wait to see the deck furniture Angela bought on there.

[@ktshorty4808]

I think it will be so handy to drive to your back deck and unload groceries right to your pantry and kitchen!

[@erniepenny221]

Brilliant job you two have made, how about using a round over router bit to edge the top hand rail and around the top. Regards

[@RichardCWard]

Sam and Angela, you completed another fantastic job on the deck and steps and hand rails. Well Done

[@onemorchatykathy]

I just have one question? Coming down the stairs on to the concrete landing, is the depth of the landing deep enough for a ‘big foot’! It looks like you step off onto it and half your shoe will be in the dirt.

[@number1pappy]

Engineered screws has been an amazing leap forward in deck building! I remember back the the 80s helping my dad build a deck and having to use bolts 🔩 and nails because Engineered screws wasn't a thing back then. Atleast it wasn't for us. Deck looks amazing by the way. You build decks like I do. The only difference is we had our beams going the opposite direction, only because we wanted our deck boards going the opposite way you have yours.

[@LambieSamba]

I put a penny between the boards to allow water drainage. Be careful in the rain guys, those treated boards are slippery, warn the boys! There is a 'non-slip' tape you can apply. Good job on the pad and stairs!

[@patriciawalsh8234]

You two have done such a wonderful job on the decks and doing awesome things to your home,hope you get to move in before cooler weather 💖

[@amymiller950]

So impressed with your work! Most importantly you look like you enjoy yourself.

[@barbaraburke1676]

Hi yall, I had binged watched all the deck building videos and waited to see the finished work to make a comment... Awesome job on that back deck and front deck😉👍🤗

[@oleman490]

well if everyone was as happy as you two building there would be lots of carpenters, handymen etc out of work;;;lol;;;;still looks good;;;;the humor kinda like icing on da cake;;;;

[@carriecardone3984]

Just found your channel. I am so impressed and motivated. We too left NC sold our home and are currently renting in East TN. We are older and now wiser!! We are thinking of doing much the same as you did in the next year or so. Absolutely love you guys!!! Keep up the great work

Aww, you're too kind. Thank you!

[@angelacross2216]

Gravel will be a great foundation for your eventual concrete pathways. Beautifully proportioned deck. It looks perfect.

[@sam-and-angela]

It was kind of our thoughts too.. gravel for now because it's quick and cheap. Then later it should be a good base for concrete. :) Thanks!!

[@normaanderson3758]

Great job Sam and Angela. Your home is really starting to take shape. The decks just add so much to your home. Both decks look beautiful.

[@deannamarie4149]

Looks sweet like I knew it would. You both work well together.

[@Peachy08]

I use that ladder mesh in my garden. They make great little trellises. Everything is looking great!

[@budcmour]

You did an awesome build on that deck! I didn't think about it on the last video, but when Angela was using the spacer jig, I noticed there was no marking on the side of the it to give a reference for the height of the balluster. So if anyone duplicates the jig for their own railing, add a pencil mark on the side to mark the top of the balluster placement. Great ingenuity, Sam!

[@longfellowsgirl7765]

Love watching you guys at work. Almost time to relax and well deserved too. Say that little ditty you played reminded me of Herb Alpert and his tijuana brass !!! Lots of energy loved it. 🎶💃🏻🕺🎶

[@mikepetitt9624]

You guys the deck looks great! Love how the railings turned out!

[@secretlocketsparks8092]

I used to own a Barbershop and I had men that wanted me to pick there face and I'm telling you you can squeeze out that thing on your lip and it will disappear 💞 And your decks are both beautiful. Good job!

[@buckpowers4837]

You do a very professional job and you both are perfect examples of working together and achieving great results. Hats off to the whole house project and when do you show both of you just relaxing with a glass of sweet tea.

[@sam-and-angela]

Thank you so much 😀

[@lindapearson2376]

Both decks look amazing! Pray you will enjoy them for years to come & make many precious memories.

[@bhp8086]

I find your videos extremely helpful. They also crack me up! 🤣 Thank y’all.

[@sam-and-angela]

Happy to help all around!

[@tamistone7344]

Hi Sam and Angela! The deck looks awesome! You did a great job! Question, are you going to stain both the deck and front staircase, or clear coat to leave it looking natural? Or? You're gonna tell me I have to wait and see! Lol, right? I'm excited to see the new furniture Ang got! Have a great weekend! Almost there guys!!! 🙌

[@timnewman1172]

The best product I have found for waterproofing wood outdoors is a varathane spar varnish... it is NOT cheap, but really works great & lasts a decent time...

[@tamistone7344]

@@timnewman1172 good one! Yes I meant to say varathane, not clear coat! Lol! I agree with you, it keeps the natural color, which I like better then stain! Thanks Tim! 😃

[@crinkle2649]

So glad you didn't fall.

[@carolynhostetler8641]

I like the finished look of the front deck.

[@lbarney56]

Great work! Cool finish music from Mr. Alpert very appropriate. This deck will make your move in easier. God Bless Y'all 🙏🙏🙏.

[@sam-and-angela]

Thanks 👍

[@debbiesmith851]

Beautiful & spacious deck!!!!!! It would look nice also to have a face board on each step (think that’s what it’s called) Will you be staining the deck or sealing it? Great team work 👏👏

[@michellelaclair]

SAM YOU ARE A GENIOUS!!!!!

[@joycejones2979]

I like your work. You and Angela get the job done! The decks are gorgeous!💕

[@NavigatingChaos]

We did our own sidewalk. Sooooo easy! We used 1 x 2s and basically bent them to our will into a shape all the way to our driveway. It's about 25 feet...maybe a little longer. We put relief boards using lattice wood, in between every 4 feet or so. Then we poured. It's only 2 in thick, but it hasn't cracked. We poured it 6 almost 7 years ago. Way cheaper than paying someone, and it took 2 days to do.

[@mmoats4294]

You guys are very good at building decks. I’m very impressed at the quality of work.

[@janmilos5975]

You guys are amazing to watch. You two make it interesting to watch cement dry and you're added humor makes me want more content. Keep up the great work on you're house remodel. I'll be watching

I aint never going to build stairs or a deck but I find myself just watching and being amazed all of you working together and just getting it done. Its beautiful. Just yesterday you were moving down the road wondering if the house would stay together...and it sure did.

[@sandramarshall7712]

I love those hand rails also. Great job!

[@mariawhite1328]

Woo hoo! They stairs look great!

[@kingkong7617]

Both decks look really good and are you going to apply any wood preserver and stain the decks?

[@NavigatingChaos]

You have to give the pressure treated boards time to dry out. In a couple of weeks, they can test it with some water...if droplets form on top of the wood, they have to wait a little longer. Once the water sinks in...they can stain or paint. If you do it before then, it won't preserve it like it should.

[@jeytex3161]

Sure looks good ! To think that is a free standing deck and is rigid, great job!

[@sarahkirkpatrick9779]

I would love to see your first video but can’t find it. Love to see trailer at beginning if possible can’t get enough of you guys.
