DIY Weekend Deck Project Part 4 Installing Deck Railings

DIY Weekend Deck Project Part 4 Installing Deck Railings

In this project Jeff tackles a weekend deck project. The plan: to salvage the existing frame from an old deck, re-structure, and lay new boards, skirts and rails. This project enables the homeowner to save a lot of money! In this project we used cedar for the purpose of the video; however, using pressure treated will work just as well and cost a lot less. So start saving and start building it! An it’s only going to take you a weekend!

The only thing that screw did on that upper left bracket was bend the holy smokes out of that nice bracket.

i think people get confused on the difference between brick mortar & concrete

Earl Laamanen says:

If the deck settles or lifts while the building doesn't, won't that mess with your stair rail that was attached to the brick wall?

Stephen Mayne says:

Wael Harb says:

Cudda Brown says:

U really had me on the rails..lolol..great looking deck maxx…great job Reno Ninja

A P says:

Great video as usual! Curious though, you're in Canada where they use the metric system (to my knowledge anyway). Why do you always seem to measure things in imperial? It seems so much more difficult and less precise to say "49 and 3/8", minus 1/2" equals 48 and 7/8"", instead of like "1200 minus 15 equals 1185mm".

nick panico says:
