Our decking project is finally complete! In this video I’ll show you how we built our decking and give you some tips if you’re ever tackling a project like this. We opted for a softwood timber deck for reasons I’ll explain on a later video. If you haven’t watched part 1 yet, this deck measures around 7m wide by 3.4m deep, so about 24m2. A quick reminder for the trolls, I don’t make sponsored videos but I love winding you up.

Looking forward to the ancillary videos, perhaps you could also add one "simple wood-working projects from deck-board off-cuts" ? Somebody from the road leading to ours had a deck laid about 20 years ago and they had a great pile of off-cuts to be chucked away so your's truly asked permission then took my wheelbarrow and filled it twice, it makes me smile as the deck was ripped out and replaced about 10 years ago and I'm still using up the off-cuts today ! 😉

I'm sure, like me, you reviewed many ways of protecting your joists. I used this tape a couple of years ago. I had to rebuild my deck around my hot tub, 😮which lasted 16 years. The joists were rotting from the top, probably from where moisture could get to. Anyway, I made the decision to use this tape. It was quick and easy to lay along the top of the joists. I also used it to seal all the end grain of my noggins, too. It was expensive, but I feel I made the right decision from the various other methods I reviewed. I used 3 rolls. I used composite boards to top my decking. I'm only a diy-er

@MrInterieurverzorger Месяц назад

@GosforthHandyman Месяц назад

@markgeezey1809 Месяц назад

Hi Andy, albeit from Birmingham, I live in Sweden and decking is unbelievably popular and very common over here. Much more than say brick patios. I don’t know anyone who uses this tape you have used on the joints and we have long winters with huge amounts of snow during this period, not to mention loads of rain as well. Almost as bad as Blighty 😂. As long as the wood is fully treated (impregnated) from factory and reasonably maintained over the years, it will not rot and last for many, many years. Sorry Andy but based on years of experience and much harsher weather, you have in all honesty spent £60 odd quid on something you didn’t really need. Albeit done a nice job. 👍👍 By the way Thompson weather seal does a great job of protecting the decking boards and stopping any algae and moss forming. 👍. Also no two boards are identical, so trying to get every board to line us to the mm is definitely a bad case of OCD mate. 😂🤯

@GosforthHandyman 25 дней назад

Ha cheers! I suspect the timber is much higher quality and better treated over there. 👍

@markgeezey1809 25 дней назад

I wouldn’t bank on that Andy. To be honest getting good wood here and especially quality sheet material is a nightmare and bloody expensive. 🤯😩. But love how you did the decking and always nice regardless to see a person take pride in their work. Definitely better than most contractors for sure. 👍👍

@GosforthHandyman Месяц назад

@retiree1033 Месяц назад

I used pvc DPC roll for the top of the joists stapled down. The deck was there for twenty odd years and the joists were still solid. If we didn't have to pull it all up because of a bamboo infestation it would still be there now. 'er indoors wanted a redesign with a couple of large raised planting boxes in oak and as I'm now over seventy we decided it was prudent to get someone in. 😁

@GosforthHandyman Месяц назад

That's really interesting to know! I've certainly seen decks with zero joist or timber treatment that have lasted 20+ years. Hope you got the bamboo sorted! 😬

@pompeyjim Месяц назад

Nice work mate. When I did mine, the boards were still green and absolutely saturated, so I decided to butt them up with no gap. I figured they can't expand anymore. Now I have a pretty big gap in summer and next to none in winter. This annoys me with timber decking. Sometimes I see people with 10+ mm gaps.

@RemnantsOfBeauty Месяц назад

Fantastic work! One quick comment, I've watched many videos similar to this and they tend to always use wider deck tape. Also, a perimeter board tends to look better, for the cornes they meet at 45 degree angle so it's seemless. Other then that, looks great!

@GosforthHandyman Месяц назад

@Sabreshift Месяц назад

Stunning attention to preserving the life of this deck. Take care laying timber boards one after the other though. Most of the time the boards are swollen in the middle more than the ends so if you pull them to a 5mm spacer each time you'll start bowing every board. Its good practice to mark out every forth or fifth board to a line then infilling each section. This looks great though top job 👌

@GosforthHandyman 25 дней назад

Yeah, checked every few boards and used different spacers to suit. 👍👍

@bockersjv Месяц назад

I’d have set the step boards at 90° to the main deck. Helps with the visual perception of a step too, especially for the elderly. Just a personal thing. Great video as usual.

@NorthernMonkeeUK Месяц назад

Hi Andy. This is a different brand name tape than what I use, but I'm pretty sure it's the same (vulcanised tape). Don't worry about that tape sticking. I would rather wish you good luck trying to ever getting that tape off again.

You've done a great job mate, looks awsome for the occasional sunny day we get in the Newcasrte area. About the step, did you use the cut ends in the same order and orientation as you cut them off? As you know, planed wood has 'nominal' dimensions and depending on the wetness of the wood, each plank will be slightly different. Great Job!!!

@GosforthHandyman Месяц назад

Thank you and spot on with your other comment! No, foolishly I mixed them up when I picked up the step boards which is one of the reasons I had to spend so long mucking about with the spacers afterwards. 😂👍

@freetolook3727 Месяц назад

One of the most common mistakes that I see people building decks is spacing the deck boards. After a couple of years, there will be plenty of space opening up between those deck boards as they shrink, believe me. I built my parents deck. My father and I pried each board tight against each other so there were no gaps between the boards. Three yaers later there were huge gaps between the boards, some as much as 3/4".

@GosforthHandyman 25 дней назад

Defo! With this being on a shady north facing wide we want plenty gaps for airflow. 👍

@stevebosun7410 Месяц назад

Great work Andy, as we've come to expect. Using the plain side of the boards looks so much better than those silly ribs, that then gather all of the detritus. Did you return the defective boards? They were terrible. Any thoughts about how slippery the deck may get?

I love your attention to detail. I think this is a case of an ‘amateur’ job being superior to a ‘professional’ one because you spend the extra time to be really thorough. I think the step would have been easier if you’d done it on the short side of the deck so that the boards ran longways.

@GosforthHandyman 25 дней назад

Cheers! We may add one on the short side too. 👍

@rfrisbee1 Месяц назад

I've read conflicting opinions about whether to fit the boards with a gap or not. Some claim treated deck boards *always* shrink, others claim the gap is necessary. Hopefully you'll do an update in a year or two so we can see how it's holding up. Looks great now!

@Mark.D.H. Месяц назад

If the boards are fitted after a spell of dry, warm summer weather they probably won't shrink much further and I would fit them with very slightly less than the desired gap. However, if fitted damp, or in the winter I would fit them almost touching, as they will shrink a lot in the warmer weather.

@adhafer4542 Месяц назад

awesome work Andy. A question on visitors getting under the decking, are you hoping the cats will take care of that?

@RobertSandell Месяц назад

My personal theory is that during the summer everyone and their granny wants to build a deck. So the decking lumber gets produced on mass with close to no regards to the quality because there just isn't enough lumber available to treat and make decking boards of. So you should probably try to build your deck early to mid spring so that there is enough quality lumber around.

@GosforthHandyman Месяц назад

Very possibly! Although this looked like it had been sitting in the builder's merchant for years! Some boards had tyre marks on. 😂🙄
