Building a MASSIVE Deck Part 5 - Installing Deck Boards

What happens here

Install the side skirt boards (fascia) around the perimeter of the deck. These composite boards cover the exposed ends of the deck joists, providing a clean, finished look. Secure them using a drill and appropriate screws. Continue installing additional composite decking on the remaining stair treads, risers, and side panels, ensuring all surfaces are flush and visually appealing.

Goal: Complete the exterior finishing of the stairs and main deck edges.
