[QUOTE="sierra1995, post: 340694, member: 1059"] I've done two decks at my place. One is a 12x14, all green treat, 5/4 deck boards. it is attached to the house and has footings below the frost line. The new one I built, is small, 8x3, with steps down to a large patio. I used the top of the line composite from Menards for the decking, white PVC for the risers, and Menards aluminum railing. Like Risingsun said, I think that the "hidden" fasteners added a bunch of extra work, so I pre-drilled holes and use the small head colored fasteners. It is sitting on 4x4's that are resting on the concrete patio, not fasted to the house. In the photo, I don't have the north railing completed yet.
