Cool how do you like Finland? 🇫🇮

we put multiple pieces together and layout out and pre drill like atleast 2 at a time. for full ones atleast leaving last foot or two off for cuts. makes it faster

Awesome keep up the good work Guys

Love all the details. Thanks!

Dr deck you totally passed over what I think is the coolest past of the fascia. How did you do those corner pieces and the dividers for the fascia to go right up into for a clean look. Are those corner pieces something you fab together? Can you pls explain or show us if you made them. I love it

It’s called a deck fascia corner and seam guard. I see they are about $20/each

Yep I never got an answer so I went a searching. TREX and other deck material websites sell them. I bought and used them on a 14x27 Trex deck. The look is awesome. They do seem flimsy but give such a clean look. The have what I call "wings" on the back. You swrew them to the rim joist and the fascia kinda slides right in. So having a perfect miter cut is necessary. It gives you like an 1.5 inch on the sides of the corner as coverage. Highly recommend them!!! I thank God he showed them. Until I saw them in his video I never saw them.

Poor SOB he just ran out of time or ideas and left everybody hanging. Very sad...I wouldn't have expected him to leave everyone hanging.

Cap stock workes. I've done it. Use good super glee with activator

I have had nothing but trouble with fascias , trex , timberteck , never did anything to keep them from ripping off in the heavy sun , i use Borel synthetic now and i have paint made to match the decking color , what brand fascia are you using and did you ever have trouble with it

Do you run spacers behind the fascia even when installing under the picture frame overhang? To keep any water from just sitting between the rim board and the fascia and not flowing through or getting any airflow?

I need your help I see how you covered over your seams on your facia board can I do that with the corners also ??? Mine look like crap I’ll look for info to this here 😊😊

Question - what's the reason you didn't use something like the Starborn Fascia Screws and related Fascia Tool to countersink the heads?

Can you please tell me the model of the sliding compound Metabo saw you used to make the trim board cuts?

Any recommendations for doing a radius. Did it without a steamer about 8 years ago and they curled top and bottom pretty quickly. Is building a heat/ steam box the only way and only product to do it?

I loved your work in nacho libre’ !

What did you use to make the corners for the facial boards?

Do you need spacers behind the fascia boards for air flow?

Nicezzzzzzzzz Loved Your Video Thanks For The Tips Pro🤙🏾👊🏾 Don't Take My Idea 🤣🤣🤣

At the bullnose of a stair, I wonder what happens to the edge of overhanging composite decking over time. I was thinking of picture framing a deck with a single stair in one location. Is that a bad idea at the stair because of extra wear at the edge of the bullnose? Is it better to do as you did here, using the vertical edge of your fascia for the leading edge of the bullnose?

Great video! What spacing do you use for the screws on the fascia board? 16" on center?

I think he’s using timbertech and the install guide says 2 screws every 12”

Do you have any videos on how you make the trim pieces to cover the seams/joints? Also, I assume it works better with PVC, but feedback on doing the same for Composite (Trex)?

I'm asking the same thing. How did he fab those corner pieces and the seem pieces so you don't have one fascia butting up to another. I actually took another of the tricks he showed before. I cut off the side of the actual step board or Trex calls it sq board at like 1/8 and used it to hide the seem. He use this trick to cover the end caps on boards. Works great to hide seems but can't use it on corners. I want to know how he did those corner and seem pieces to slide up into

same, i want to know what he did on covering up those butts

Not sure why there's grooved boards at the edge. My deckorators deck has no visible grooves at the edges.

Where you get the corners and joint pieces?

@4:33 Why don't you cover the board ends of the deck with the facial? It would look like the steps you are setting on and give a cleaner look.

What are the transition pieces called?

That’s what I’m wondering

You know you had a video on G-tape but you did not talk about using it on the raw sides of joists before installing fascia boards. I believe you need to cover all these aspects. You know what to do but skip over elements that amateurs need to see. Looking at the decking by the door where your sitting and speaking about doing a fascia corner I’m trying to see how these boards were fastened as the edges look so close to each other that they appear you splined the boards?

Why so many screws ?

Confused...AZEK Fascia boards require Toploc Fascia fasteners that allow the fascia to “hang” on the fasteners. You pre-drill a slightly oversized hole in fascia that has a countersink that allows the head of the fastener to hold the fascia board. Your video shows fasteners used without pre-drilling which prevents expansion of fascia which will cause fasteners to fail over the years. Dr. Deck...you got this wrong!

I checked in with Azek before using their branded screws to fasten the fascia. Why would they sell something for a specific task and not recommended using it? schillings.com/wp-content/uploads/TOPLOCF100ALG.jpg

If you ever use Trex fascia you must use fascia fasteners that require the countersink tool. If you don't it'll void the warranty. I recently had to replace fascia on several decks I did... I originally fastened with 2 1/2" matching color cortex screws. 3 screws every 14" plus glue. It still rippled within 2 yrs. Trex rep said its because I didn't use facia fasteners with the broad head. Cortex style screws have no holding power. Lesson learned.....

@@RuthlessGaming5849 AZEC makes two types of fascia boards that require two different fastening methods. They make a “composite” fascia and they also make a 100% PVC fascia. The AZEC vintage collection is 100% PVC and requires fasteners and glue that prevent the fascia from any movement. Composite fascia requires fasteners that allow the fascia to “hang” on the fasteners so it can move when it expands/contracts with temperature changes.

I think I will stain rather than installing som yung facia...

You guys do get sunshine! Most of your videos are shot in overcast conditions and was starting to feel bad for you. Love your work but am shocked that building inspectors allow the horizontal wire in the railings. Kids make stairs out of them and it's a fall hazard. I think that's why Verti-cable came up with the vertical stainless cables.

You always edit the shit out of your vids leaving us with little to know details. You voice a lot of what you intend to do but you never show it. I will never know me and sub until your content improves
