Hi Jeff I’m only 17 and I wanted to paint my room so I watched all ur painting videos and my mom was so happy with how It turned out she asked me to paint the whole house and i did, IT LOOKS AMAZING. just wanna say thank youuu I was able to help my mom out and now she doesn’t have to pay someone to paint the house ❤️❤️
Congrats !!! That is awesome! This is why we do what we do. Cheers!
Love it! I’m using his videos to make walls in the basement for my room! I’ve put up all of the framing next step drywall!
I am so impressed that you not only wanted to help your Mum but you took the time to learn how to do it properly. You will go very far in life. Many of your peers (my children included) dont have a great work ethic. Congratulations to you and your mother for raising such a great kid.
Best advice you're going to get.. "Women are crazy"! Good luck kid..
You sir, are AMAZING!!!
And yo' momma rocks!
Great job, you know what you need to do to get where your want in life, you know how to work hard to do things right and you know how to make a girl happy.
That is what it takes to be a happy man.
I'm not a man, but I know how to make one happy, or miserable... The man may wear the pants in the household, but we all know who he wants to get in them.... hey, just being honest.
You are definitely old enough to hear that.
Anyway, I'm really proud of ya, way to go 👍
Side note (my ex-boyfriend wasn't bright enough to do what you have done)
The amount of tips and tricks I've learned from these videos is priceless. You are an amazing teacher! Knowledge that only comes from experience.
FACT!!!!
@@Mrcool12684 '''lop
I think Jeff rolls his eyes and sighs more than my teenage daughter...
Love all your videos man! You're a great mentor.
Anyone else never gonna build a deck but couldn’t stop watching? Love it!
You are a true GIFT to any homeowner who wants to make improvements - the SMARTEST way!!! Thank you!!
Glad it was helpful!
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, I learn more from your videos than I have from anywhere else . Amazing ..
This guy is absolutely brilliant! I walked out of the room hours ago and left CZcams playing random videos. I've walked back into the room and I've been sat here, captivated, educated PLUS there was a Ric Flair reference. Actually subscribing.
This channel has something every other DIY channel does not have and lacks, (Heart and Pride Passionate and Caring)
Not only is this super informative, I didn’t realize Jeff was so funny. I laughed several times. I absolutely love this guy.
Im supposed to be sleeping but this is the best real life movie DIY ever...Awesome work with tips and tricks.
Thank you. Now get some sleep. Cheers!
It's beautiful work, I love to watch true workmanship and contractors taking pride, care and caution in their work. Great job!
I love your common-sense approach to building. I am currently renovating my grandmothers house so my wife and I can live in it morgage free, and your videos have been excellent. From framing, to siding, to sheetrock...electrical...plumbing. Love ya man!
Boy, would I like to have a sit down with this guy and just listen and absorb... Great teaching technique, easily explained and with a lot of sense... I am glad that you have your channel and that all of us can learn...
BEST DIY GUY EVER! But seriously this guy’s tips are priceless! I just finished a deck using at least 4 new tips I didn’t know before and this job looked so much better and the home owner, who has 7 rental units (so they’ve worked with a lot of contractors), was elated with the strength and finish of her new deck! This make me very happy and gets me a lot of referrals! Believe me, no matter how much you think you know, this guy will teach you something!
Cheers Michael. Never stop learning.
@@HomeRenoVisionDIY One of my favorite mantras and easier than ever with all of the exceptional content you've given us all.
I really could not overstate how much time and money your knowledge has saved me! Still, what amazes me is how much I retain from watching you. I'm sure my end result is nothing close to yours, but you truly have a natural gift for teaching that I can see in everything I learn. Thank you again.
We need guys like this in the educational system
I learned more from this one video than I have reading numerous books and watching many other videos.
THANKS!
First of all this guy has a lot of amazing tips but the fact that he does not want to use safety glasses is really disturbing. You can know your tools all you want Hell you could have MADE THE TOOL but it only takes a second to lose your EYES. The thing I'm worried people will follow his example and not use good safety practices.
Always a good time to watch a video about big decks! The wife loves a big deck...she's particularly fond of our neighbor's deck and spends a lot of time on it. That is somewhat concerning; so I'm gonna use your tips and start workin on getting her a deck she'll tell her friends about!
This was actually really easy to watch. You have a calming voice and speak in a way that's encouraging to anyone to give something like this a try. Thanks for sharing.
Cheers Chris!
Jeff you are the man! Taking all of the nonsense out of getting things done. And you do it all with a pleasant disposition while seemingly not to even break a sweat. I'm giving you two thumbs up.
This was great! I have no intention of building a deck at this time, but I just couldn’t stop watching weee into the night 👏👏👏
I appreciate the videos. Built my deck a few months ago. I used camo screws from watching your videos and love it. I live in Southern California and am cheap so I used 2x6x12 Doug fir for the decking with pressure treated 2x8’s for the framing. It’s all solid as a rock. I primed and painted the decking with exterior products so hopefully it will last along time. Thanks again.
Cheers well done!

Learning every time something from you, HAPPY MAN.... God blessed you and yours, but I have to say that you are very happy and love what you do!!!😘🇨🇦
Just tiled my master bathroom using a lot of tips from your channel. Thanks so much! Your ideas saved me tons of time and money.
Looks like you had a good time in chat! Glad to see it!! Sorry I missed such a long Premier. Thank you for the video, Jeff. It's so full of quality information!
I am in Leamington Ontario Canada and just recently found your channel. Thank Goodness I did. This is amazing. I am learning how to build so many things from your channel and you make it so easy and make sure to explain every detail. I like your short humour too, gives me a chuckle. I Have a passion for building and now I have all the tools right here. I am definitely looking to support your channel and anything I can purchase through here I will. Thank you so much! Don't need a man now, I can just do it all on my own!! Wooohoooo! After greenhouse and gazebo, ill be doing my roof in spring and fix my falling down house, YAY!!
I have the camo grip...great tool, I bought it because of you. The new camo extended tool is great! No bending over....saves you back
So much knowledge here. My brain is soaking it all up and learning why things should be done a certain way. I am in the middle of a porch deck and these videos have helped me tremendously. Thank you!
This man is the sales rep for Safety Squints Eye Protection Co.
Serious? That's hilarious.
Hey Jeff!! Your videos are awesome!! You explain everything so well and though! I must admit, your videos are VERY entertaining!! I just had Total Knee Replacement surgery on Monday the 21st so I have all the time in the world to BINGE WATCH YOUR VIDEOS!! That was funny, when you installed the door and found out THERE WASN’T ANY DOOR HANDLES!!! Funny to watch your rage meter!! Sooo funny!! I will be joining your club deal as soon as I get back on my feet! I do a lot of DIY around the house! Thanks Jeff (and Michelle and your two sons) for caring enough to put out QUALITY videos!! Thanks! Manny
I'm been building things for years and I still found this interesting. Great tips. If wood didn't cost more than crack I'd build something this weekend.
😂😂🤣 I hollered at your last sentence cause the price of wood is ridiculous.
the crescent adjustable pry is amazing. Ive had mine for about 4 years now and shes still kickin. Great video!
THE BEST !!!! Even my wife enjoys watching your videoes..

i recently started a job at Lowes selling lumber and drywall and roofing and stuff like that. these videos have actually been invaluable to me to figure out what all of the options are and what the difference is. i never worked in construction, so i don't have the first hand experience of working with these materials. the thoroughness of these videos has taught me things that i have actually been able to use when talking to customers. the segment about wood grains was amazing. the section about trex decking is also great because we sell that, but i was a little confused about how it was installed. now i know that and a lot more!
I love the chalk line tool and the tool that squeezes the boards together
"This is kinda like an AR" hahahahah! I live in Canada as well, love it!
Perfection does'nt exist. But you graze it;) Thanks for all these detailed instructions. I made my first deck last year because of all the nice videos. Now i want a 3 seasons porch! Keep up the best work around on youtube!
I feel like I know how to build all kinds of decks now, only problem is that I don't own a house! lol your house looks awesome Jeff
😂 maybe your landlord would like a deck? Earn some free rent💪🏼
@@littlecookie318 A decent deck and tools will cost a whole lot of rent..
Excellent video! Whoever shot and edited this, did a great job! I learned a lot from it.
As a project recommendation, would you consider showing how to install metal interlocking weather stripping on exterior doors? This is the kind of hook and groove type metal interlocking weatherstripping usually made of strips of aluminum into routed out edges of the door that creates a lifelong seal around the door. This seems to be a lost art but saw it done once and it's the best seal I've ever seen. Can't seem to find an installation video anywhere on the web. Thanks and love your channel. Keep it up.
@Hello Mark how are you doing
You’re so awesome Jeff, so much detailed info. Great video, lots of tips
I love your work and content Jeff. And I really appreciate that you post long videos. Keep up the good work. Grettings from David in Sweden
Jeff is covering topics in this video that I've never seen before and I am so grateful to learn.
I haven't even made it 5 minutes in and im intrigued - this is amazing!
No kt
thats a great Idea with the PL adhesive and joining boards I'm doing a deck outback this summer Ill remember that one thanks Jeff
They say in the trade measure twice, cut once. Well I watch a lot of good people on here like your self and find I always come back to you for my build and tips. You have an amazing way of explaining every thing and other simple methods too which makes any job much easier if I follow your advice first. You also share your previous experiences too and revert back to what has worked better in the long run. Thanks a million for you help from these amazing videos, assisting me in my passion of woodwork and small home builds. I'm just a novice in all what I do but there have turn out really really well, well the wife loves them, and she I the only person I need to please. Take care in all what you do buddy, you and your loved ones and thank you for inspiring me to follow some think I've always had a passion for. Now I Watch Twice & Build Once.
Wow..... What an amazing channel. I'd literally have to watch this several times to fully absorb the needed information.
I don't know how many times I watched this video lol Everytime it awes me. Thank you Mr. Ottawa contractor, you are the best! Mind you, I watched maaaaany of your other videos but somehow, I keep coming back to this one.
Cheers.
The great thing about your videos is you make it interesting you're entertaining and you're funny so you know keep up the great work I've been watching you for over a year now and you've encouraged me to make a lot of things and I've done a pretty good job where I didn't have the confidence so I really really appreciate it guy thank you very much and keep them coming
Jeff you are the most talented craftsman I have ever seen nobody else comes close.
I learned so much in two hours. So valuable. thank you
Thank you that was an amazing video, incredible insight and detail
Really like watching yours videos full of tips and also learn lots awesome things I never know ;-) It's such a great lesson every single time Jeff.
Your videos are great and so helpful. Thank you for these. Just wish I found you before I built my 12 x 16 deck. Which started as 24 on center because of a plan that a woman in the Midwest that used 2 x 4s as deck boards. Ended up becoming 12 on center by the time I found my error. You were helpful to build part of my railing which came out perfect.
Only thing missing is how to build a deck foundation. Any videos on that? Appreciate everything you put out though!
not quite A-Z is it? lol
My favorite sunday morning, Jeff Thanks buddy
Cheers , glad you liked this!
Hi Jeff! I love your DIY videos. I have a camp and believe me, I will be watching and listening to all your building tips! I have to build a water shed and decking this year, so keep. those videos coming! Have you built any structures like pergolas or solariums yet? That will be my next venture! Thanks again!
You are addictive ! Can’t stop watching you work
Sniff... God I love the smell of cedar in the morning! Love it!
First, I LOVE your videos! I've become a binge watcher. That being said- we were in a position where we have to "restore" our deck. After taking all the decking off, we unfortunately discovered the *entire* thing had to be scrapped as every bit of it was rotted. Super unsafe, so glad we got started on the project. That being said- I am going to have to shell out TONS of $$ for the structural lumbar (at todays insane prices). I was able to get a big load of *used* Trex from a neighbor for the decking & it is in decent shape. It was a HUGE score. That being said... It was originally installed with surface screws. I don't see any other way to install it BUT to use those holes & surface screws. In this case- what do you recommend (specifically) for hardware/screws? I plan to line the wood stringers with Trex Tape. Is there an adhesive I should shoot into the hole in the Trex before the screw? I plan to apply Rustoleum Composit Deck Refresh as the final step. I would love ANY suggestion you may have with regards to making my not stellar options the best they can be!
Great video great tips. Learned so much thank you for the lessons, keep them coming. God bless.
Thanks, will do!
Man what you do have help me too much to fix my home, i am doing everthing now as you do it.
Keep it up you are the best 👍👍👍
Safety 2nd. Production 1st ... Yes! 👏👍 My Diy projects just got easier, finding you! Good stuff! Keep it up
We love a handyman/carpenter/diy'er that is all about as little waste as possible and the environment 🖤🖤🖤
Great job at explaining . We are rebuilding our house . Great tips.
Great teaching, awesome, learned so much with your videos👍👍
Great content and comprehensive treatment of the subject!
When you pulled out the two by four to frame out the lattice work I was thinking I don't know to each his own but I think it would look better to use 3/4 in material but when you showed us the technique with the 2x4 I said to myself myself I think he's got something there
So many tips in 1 video I am going to need to watch it at least 3 times. Next time I will take notes and the 3rd time I will make sure I didn't miss anything the first 2 times. I will probably watch it a few more times during the project.
I worked in building house and decks . I learned thing s from this channel .Even some new tricks . Thank you
Dude that bit around 26:45 is solid af. The splinter from the center grain of the lumber never thought about that. Ofc I dont know jack about wood or anything related to that but you explained it so well.
Geez I like this guy!
I'm still about 12 - 18 months out from this stage for the Japan renovation, but just watched this video, and already have ideas about what I want to do with it! Cheers! - Scott from Japan
Cheers Scott. I love the timeline since this year will be hard top get materials and they will be too expensive anyway. Cheers!
With any luck I will be able to travel by then! love me some sushi!
Beautiful Job Thanks for sharing your skills.
the amount of stuff iv learned on this channel is insane and i can't believe its free lmao good stuff man bought my house about a year ago' and iv been hooked to this channel since and iv done alot' 💪🏼
Also worth noting that with composite, it's recommended to use 12" joists
I agree.. always use the Cerveza when making decisions during a build :D
Nice to see real life deck building. Great teaching
Amazing Jeff, as usual you provide so many tips and tricks....side note love have w angry you get over splinters and guys who spend too much time looking at lumber. FYI love the drywall videos.
Right on
You should wear a cool cotton weave, button up instead of a hot stretch knit on warm days. You would stay so much cooler!!!
I also like the knowledge you disburse. It shows a nice heart!
Thorough video. Talk about Big Deck Energy!
He's going through which side up or down and I'm sitting here like "Trex it is!".
I've learned so much from your channel. THANK YOU, god bless
Pal, your a fking beast, honestly. Being an electrician for 7 year in construction, everytime I watch your vid I feel like an apprentice again. Aside from being a freaking great pedagogue, you are funny and charming. Keep up the good work my friend, you contribute in an awesome way to this world, I love your transparency.
Lol The leveling of the post "get it close, doesn't have to be perfect, take some pressure off your self" Thank you for that I have been kicking my self for 4 days because my posts are real close but weren't dead on level. I feel alot better about it now thank you so much love the video great info
Great job showing the clips and how you need to use them to suit your build type.
The reason there is two different kinds of clips, is you use one type each (solid and slip) for each horizontal member, when doing two horizontal rails. If you've ever installed a closet rod it's a similar thing, solid circle for one end of the rod and a circle where the top is cut out. For those horizontal 2x4 rails in that kit you would use one solid clip with one slip clip for each horizontal 2x4 rail. The directions I read had you attach the rail clips before installing the railing. Which if you install them that way you will need the slip side to rack your spindles followed by the top rail. I like to install the whole thing as a monolithic unit. ;) Great tips and tricks.
Loving your videos especially now that I just bought a house...getting a lot of tips to fix up the house...thanks a bunch~ oh if you take video requests, can you do one one how to install fake windows with led lights? Like the ones they have at IKEA showrooms?
Absolutely love this video, that cedar just pops with your house 👍👍👍
Best decking video
