Small Deck Gets MASSIVE Makeover! - Full Build Time Lapse
What happens here
Construct and install the deck staircase. This involves accurately cutting stringers from heavy-duty lumber to create the angled support structure for the stairs. Once the stringers are securely attached to the deck frame and ground, composite decking treads are installed onto them. Pay close attention to consistent tread depth and rise for safety and aesthetics. The staircase provides essential access between ground level and the main deck.
Goal: Provide access to the deck from ground level
