A GREAT video! This and a couple of your other deck videos really helped me successfully complete a deck using Trex decking. I also used the Coretex screws and one thing not shown in this video is pre-drilling each hole before installing the screws. The manufacturer recommends pre-drilling when using a capped deck board such as Trex, and I had a bunch of problems initially getting screws started, screws breaking right at the end of driving them in, and screws not seating properly in the decking. This guy's a pro and makes driving the screws look easy. Trust me, it's not. I wised up and started pre-drilling each screw hole and it actually sped up my work flow, and no more problems getting the screws in properly. So for all the DIY'ers out there looking at this video but planning to use another type of decking- especially Trex- tip #11 is consider pre-drilling when you're installing with Coretex.

I absolutely love the way you explained things while you went along. I like the way you went into detail about things and also some of the hacks such as clearing the water off with a leaf blower. The deck I am building is cedar planks, so it is a bit different but all in all very similar. Thanks again.
