Solo Deck Build Time Lapse

[@fakename9024]

It looks great! The only thing I would change is the width of the stairs. Twice that width makes couch moving easy!

[@denisrho1019]

Great job, great video. But, I don’t think I am working as fast and precise as you do!! To increase my cadence maybe I should consider working in a time lap mode ; hi hi hi!

Nice!!🎉

Why did you not set the 6x6 post before framing the deck?

[@pseudo_76]

ey man, nice deck

[@LDSKIPPER1911]

Did you bury the posts or set them on a footer?

[@crowsgonewild]

They are set on the footer.

[@alvarezz09]

how far at the post between each other?

[@funentertainment4730]

Will look more nice if you install 4x4 solar light on each post 🥰🥰🥰

[@BrayZap]

Size of deck?

[@lucianavarro9606]

Exelente!

[@w.c.orielly9059]

SHOULD THE DECK SUPPORTS BE IN DIRECT CONTACT WITH THE DIRT??? AKA MOISTURE... I SEE HE USED PRESSURE TREATED WOOD AND THEY LOOK BEEFY BUT... WHY NOT JUST CONCRETE PILLARS ABOVE THE GROUND/DIRT LINE?? LOOKS LIKE A WELL BUILT DECK... I AGREE THE STAIRS COULD BE WIDER BUT THE DIRT GROUND CONTACT IS QUESTIONABLE

What Size?

About 3 days

Sorry, but eventhough the deck looks nice, I don’t feel it’s safe. This is a cantilever design, where did you get the plans? The attachment to the house seems a little short. I built this type of deck with a 16’ cantilever and was required by code to use 2 carriage bolts, nuts and washers or Screws (1/2”) every 16”. The posts just barely went into the ground and only 3 posts for 20’. I’m in a frost area and for 20’ I used 6 posts, 48” deep and 10” in diameter, using a beam (2…2x10’s with 1/2” plywood in between) above to support the deck joists. All wood and plywood were green. I didn’t see that any of your boards looked treated. Comments…..

[@scott5747]

Nice quick deck, but I don't think it would pass code in my area.

[@LDSKIPPER1911]

Why wouldn’t it?

[@scott5747]

What is holding up the 4x4's? There is no cross bracing for these and the footings look questionable as well.

[@CreativeBuildsFL-TX]

@@LDSKIPPER1911 Burying the posts isn't code. Also, 12x12x12 poured concrete is the minimum for that 6x6 because it's ledger attached and not a floating deck. I personally would have deleted the ledger and made two beams. Also, the stairs are not on a footing and do not have a landing. The ledger board connection needs to be verifiable, so if that house doesn't have a basement with access to the floor joist and the house rim, it can't be physically verified, therefore not acceptable. ICC Deck Construction 2021 book is a great book.

[@CreativeBuildsFL-TX]

@@LDSKIPPER1911 Also, the railing posts are not blocked in at all, if the front rail is impacted, it's actually in danger of peeling off the rim joist because the load is not set back appropriately.

[@chopshop523]

@@CreativeBuildsFL-TX your correct! This is a waste of materials if he gets it inspected. No where in America will this pass inspection. First off the post sitting in the ground and not being tied to anything is extremely dangerous. Uplift is a major problem. This makes me wonder how well the ledger board is attached.

[@sw8282]

Don't you think paper and gravel under the deck should have been done?

[@jordangordan8980]

Nah

[@richardthomas3858]

What did you use for your stair pad

[@crowsgonewild]

I use a few 4x8x16 solid concrete blocks with ground contact rated 2x12 placed on top.

My guy…this is a dream for me. What would it take for you to maybe FaceTime call or something and mentor me? I’ll pay you. I don’t have much, but I truly want to learn to do this kind of work on my own. I’m a father and a soon to be husband and want to own my own business one day.

[@mattortosky1077]

I’ve taught a few guys through the years and it typically takes about 2 years full time to be able to comfortably handle the variety of projects and to solve the inevitable problems that arise when doing custom 1-off jobs for homeowners (not tract homes which is the same thing over and over). My advice is to do like I did - start from the bottom with the goal of being your own boss one day. Never take your eye off the prize.
