~My Fix For The Posts:    • ROTTING DECK POST SOLUTION UPDATE... ...  
~Video on my Conduit Railings:    • Conduit Railings with Surface Mounted...  

‪@RRBuildings‬ agrees with me:    • Post Rot is real  

Before making an ignorant comment, please read below.

*This is my personal deck and while I know these posts would have lasted MANY years to come, I didn't want to deal with replacing them when Im retired.

*I know from previous experience once rot gets to this level and all of the pressure treating is gone, the bugs love to get in there and things accelerate dramatically.

*The point of this clip: show you a side by side comparison of wood in concrete vs steel hardware 8 years later.

*YES, if you have better pressure treating or you coat the posts with motor oil, tar, etc they will last a whole lot longer in concrete!

*Did i waste my time/money doing this repair? IMO no, concrete is cheap and my labor is free. It only took me a day to repair and it looks much nicer with concrete footers.

*Are there benefits to putting wood in the ground? YES! Increased lateral load resistance.

*Location and soil type is a huge factor on how long YOUR wood will last in the ground. ( I happen to have very moist clay soil and a lot of termites in my area)

*Do i have issues? YES! I'm plagued with trying to make things perfect and build things to last at least a hundred years. sometimes I wish I wasn't this way, but unfortunately I am! it makes me happy to overkill and build things right... no matter how many tries it takes me or how much money I waste on it. (consider it a hobby i suppose) `
