Synopsis

Add living space to your home at a fraction of the cost of an addition! It's great to relax or entertain outdoors, and a deck provides the perfect space for these fun times. Plus, it increases the value of your home! You don't have to be a construction whiz in order to build one; as long as you have some basic skills, you can get the job done quickly--sometimes even over a couple of weekends. This one-stop guide shows you how to do a professional job while holding down costs. And don't worry about a slight error--every stage is made as correctable as possible, and most small mistakes can be fixed at a later point. * Plan your deck and lay it out: consider location, size, and shape, access to the garden, and views.* Install the footings: dig holes, build forms, place the concrete, and set up post anchors.* Frame your deck, and add stairs and railings.You'll be enjoying it in no time!
