Wow!! What a difference already! Can’t wait to see it all finished! Nice! 😎

[@dusbus2384]

If it's not cheaper than Carhartt which I know is good fit and quality I can't do it

[@JohnBuildsIt]

@@dusbus2384 same price range, and Ariats work pants are way better in my opinion. Gotta give em a try👍🏽

I wish I could turn back time to five years ago when we demo’d our deck and magically have that crescent bar. Great recommendation.

[@debiperkins]

After stepping through a rotten spot on my deck, I am demoing it. 64 year old widow who helped build our house. Yes, my leg looks like I was in a wreck, hence the demo. 😂 I bought a Cresent bar last summer. This thing is amazing!!!! I am able to pull the boards up with no problem! It was well worth the money. I also have a deck wrecker, but, I’m not even going to use it. Wish me luck!!!!

[@JohnBuildsIt]

Awesome!!

[@mattjames8683]

I think that skirting actually looks really good! Nice Job, already a huge transformation!

[@JohnBuildsIt]

Yessir! Thank you!

[@johnsmith-fz3qk]

Shocking what tradespeople will cut corners on when they think they are hiding their shortcomings. Nice fix, very therapeutic watching someone skilled restore something 👍

[@JohnBuildsIt]

Thanks John! 🙌🏼

[@bobcougar77]

What makes you think a tradesman built the previous deck? Did he mention it?

[@tinawiebe9391]

Love this transformation so far.💪 Excited to see part 2!

[@JohnBuildsIt]

I’m excited for it to be done too 😂😂 haha thanks!

[@kathyphetteplace6053]

I love the fresh clean updated look so far!! I can’t wait to see it all come together!!

[@JohnBuildsIt]

Thank you!!

[@debandmike3380]

Great tool to use. looks like those are twist nails I've got ring nails to deal with. I was told by SW not to prime deck boards but just to use self priming stain which is basically a paint.

[@FredD63]

Looks good .. when I build and sometimes rebuild decks I use a 1/4” composite spacer between rim joist to allow for water drainage and to prevent wood rot in the future… composite fascia would look good instead of paint but do what’s in your budget .. 🇺🇸👊🏼🪚🔨👊🏼✌🏼🇺🇸

[@JohnBuildsIt]

Yea I do too 👍🏽

[@philshock3805]

Looking fantastic, John! I think the skirting looks great. Although in my area, I'd consider adding some sort of screening behind to keep critters out - mice and snakes can easily fit through those gaps. You may not have to worry about that where you are though. Can't wait to see part 2!

[@JohnBuildsIt]

Thank you! The gaps are smaller than the lattice atleast. I was surprised how clean it was under the deck with no remains of anything haha. We’re in the country but thankfully we don’t really have an issue with them getting in the house, which I’m most concerned with

[@nolongeramused8135]

In the long run it's cheaper to spend the $$$ on improved materials rather than making a run down to the lumber store. No more painting, staining, sealing and then eventually having to replace the whole thing. Also, you tend to not discover you need to replace the deck by putting your foot through it.

[@JohnBuildsIt]

Absolutely!

[@tebelshaw9486]

15 years ago, I flipped all the boards on my huge deck and treated them, now the whole mess needs replaced due to rusting deck screws and wood warped in the Florida sun. Wish I had bit the bullet and replaced with Trek before the price tripled. 😢

[@jask320]

It is enormous. It would take me the whole summer to reno it😂

[@CplcDesbiens]

"Subscribe for more workout tips." Hahaha! Good one! 🙂Great video.

[@michaelgrimes8828]

Can’t wait to see the finished deck.

[@JohnBuildsIt]

Me either! 😂

[@jhowe5571]

I like your building philosophy, over engineering everything ensuring strength and longevety! 😁

[@JohnBuildsIt]

Might as well while I can! 👍🏽

[@timscott3311]

Can’t wait to see the finished product!

[@JohnBuildsIt]

Me either 😂

[@johnstup4479]

Looking good! Will be watching out for the next installment.

[@JohnBuildsIt]

Thanks man!

[@kevinhopson4291]

Looking good 👊🏻 can’t wait to see the finished product.

[@JohnBuildsIt]

Me too lol 😂👊🏼

[@sumosprojects]

Hard work never killed anyone mate & this looks absolutely ace, well done 👍🍻

[@JohnBuildsIt]

Absolutely, I appreciate it!

[@aaronolmstead8731]

Another awesome build! Great job!

[@JohnBuildsIt]

Thanks!!

[@TheBeautyBusNYC]

It looks absolutely amazing!!!

[@JohnBuildsIt]

Thank you!!

[@Hvn1957]

I really like the clean newer look. I have a micro-mini version of this coming up next year. Not to make you nervous, but be careful around the bees. It is possible to develop an allergy over time, and the fact that you swelled up may be an indication of that. Not saying it’s definite, but might be worth consulting a medical professional instead of listening to some internet moron like me 😏😏. As always, enjoyed the video!

[@JohnBuildsIt]

I must have! They never used to faze me haha but this was brutal

[@DIYwithDennis]

Nice video! Mine is scheduled for next year

[@JohnBuildsIt]

Nice! Wanted to do this years ago.. finally made time after prices increased a bit 🤣 haha

[@taylorhopson9740]

Looks good already!

[@JohnBuildsIt]

Thank you! 🙌🏼

[@kellyscott5611]

Great job so far!

[@JohnBuildsIt]

Thanks!

[@kattenfrederik618]

You deserve a like, cause them damn bees!

[@JohnBuildsIt]

Haha thank you!!

[@1Tibs1]

That’s really nice.

[@seanmcguire7974]

You've done a great job btw

[@SnickasBah]

Very enjoyable vid.

[@JohnBuildsIt]

Thanks for watching!!

[@carlosdelascuevas6140]

What amazes me is that lived through a dozen years a didn't make a thing to the deck. And for the next owner ready to redo everything at any cost! Can't understand this way of thinking!

[@JohnBuildsIt]

Not sure what you’re saying, that doesn’t make sense.

[@whocares6698]

Did you spray fpr the bees?? Hope you didnt get too sick.

[@zZiL341yRj736]

Also if we're to fall, you're not getting impaled on a bed of rusty nails, lol!

[@JohnBuildsIt]

Absolutely! Lol

[@jeremychagnon4428]

What's the finished product look like bro nice work

[@JohnBuildsIt]

Check out the second video! 👍🏽

[@joshheaddon6215]
