Very helpful informations

I'm a german landscaper. We need more good stuff like this in our country to make better gardens and to learn from the skills of people which use there imagination.This book has show every detail to me how to make special kinds of wodden decks.

Good enough to read twice

I borrowed this book from a co-worker and have read it with great interest. I'm here to purchase it because the information is so clear and appropriate. Tips for making a deck last and how to repair and maintain a deck. This book will help you make it right the first time. Every home owner should have this in their library!

The best deck building guide by far.

I work for a lumber dealer and one of our areas of expertise is decks and deck estimates. When customers ask for a book or something to help them through the project I always suggest "The Complete Deck Book". I have reviewed many books for my company and this was the only one that stood out.If you are planning a deck project, this is a must have.

Everything you need

I built my deck almost entirely from this book. It's especially good at the structural engineering detail. Some other books try to steer you away from doing your own design. A nice photo selection, but no plans for any of the fancy extras.
