Deck the Porch With Pressure-Treated Pine

Before heading out of town, we began constructing the frame for our porch deck. After drilling a hole in our footing for drainage, we put together a deck frame made of 2x4s that are connected with 2x6 girders. Then, we lifted the frame into the porch cavity and leveled the structure by placing wooden shims underneath.

Yesterday, we completed the porch by screwing deck boards on top of the frame and making sure to space the boards evenly. We now have a sturdy deck on top of which we intend to spend countless hours in rocking chairs.

All decked out (again),
