😀 3:05 "It's not my work... it's not perfect." That's what I say about the majority of projects I hire out to "professionals" and why I'm a DIYer. I can mess it up just as good.
Most people in the North East use G Tape on the under the deck boards and the fascia as well. Water is the enemy especially when it freezes and expands..
Nice video, what is the thickness of the fascia you are installing? I want to use white and everything I can find is 1" and this is going on an existing deck the thicker fascia is extending out further than the perimeter strip you mentioned. My concern is water and debris could get behind the thicker fascia. Thanks
This video answers a question I've had for a while: if it's acceptable to install composite decking in a Chevron pattern with the joist at a 45 degree angle.
Great info. I'm installing fascia on my deck today so I rewatched this video.
“It’s not my work, it’s not perfect “. That’s confidence it yourself

Nice job
If u allow a space for contraction at but joints, why don't u do same at corner joints?
Gary is the best!

Thank you
What is that thin fascia board? Cant find any that thin. Thanks
Can you buy outside corners for composite fascia or if not how to build them?

Use Versatex. It's white, and available in 5/8" and 3/4" thicknesses.
Thanks

it is but joist would need to be 12"OC
Why not hav ethe deck board run out 3/4 inches to cover the fascia ??
where did you get the corner molding
Dont you have to leave a gap at the miters for expansion? Hot sun is going to buckle those bad boys.
So is it taboo to use 8in wide facia board on a 2x8 rim joist? I heard its usually 12 in wide.
Use whatever you want. A 12" wide facia board will be good for both 10" and 12" joists. But if all you need to cover is 8"... 8" facia would be fine.
Safer to use a ball peen hammer...and som matching color elastic caulk at corner joints.
Thanks. What's going to happen to the water trapped in the Duxxback decking?
Sorry, I asked a dumb question. I see how it works now.
3 screws every 12 inches is so they can sell more screws
More closeups needed. Did you have color coded screws, you don’t say!
Do you predrill the fascia?
yes you have too
With composite screws, you do not have to. But it's still recommended. Just a cleaner finish.
with plans from the Stodoys, doing something like that was a pleasure.
7:45, there's always using your hammer to gently tap the tip of the material together.
yes! the ole manually tapped quarter round finish.
