Deck Construction Technology

Once a small part of the backyard, decks have grown in size and importance to have achieved the status as a distinct and expected part of the home. Along with their rising stature, come an overwhelming abundance of products and parts to choose from. Our clinic presenter Mike Guertin helps you make wise and informed choices on fasteners, tools, structural components and boards plus tuning you in to the latest in structural requirements and codes.
