What are your suggestions for replacing an old deck?

Frequently Asked Questions
Replacing an old Deck I just wanted to weigh in on your questions as someone who built decks professionally for 15 years.

If you use new treated joists and a good grade of wood or composite decking along with Deckmaster?, the deck should last as long as your house. If you attempt to save money by using these old joists, they will fail long before the rest of the structure.
