Small Deck Gets MASSIVE Makeover! - Full Build Time Lapse
What happens here
Begin by removing the old wooden deck structure. This involves detaching the existing deck boards, dismantling the railing, and breaking down the primary wooden frame. Tools like crowbars, hammers, and possibly demolition saws may be used to efficiently break apart and remove the old lumber. Ensure the area is cleared of all debris, leaving a clean slate for the new construction.
Goal: Clear the backyard space of the old deck structure
