This week’s video post is from Bill Race from Pulverman. Bill installs Fiberon Composite Decking at DeckExpo 2010 with Fiberon Hidden Fasteners and the Ballistic NailScrew Driver.
Thanks Bill and the rest of the Pulverman team for their expertise at DeckExpo. Were you at the show? Let us know what other fastening systems you saw at DeckExpo 2010 below!

Start by doing some planning with pencil and paper. Then find a deck design tool. On the Fiberon website is the Deck Designer, which allows you to get basic 2D or 3D layouts of your deck plan. You can print a list of all the materials you will need to build your platform and footings, making your trip to your local lumberyard easy and fast, as well as all the locations near you where you can buy Fiberon composite decking.
Most composite decking manufacturers provide instructional videos and installation instructions on their website, which will give you the lowdown on how to build your composite deck. Once you’ve designed your deck, make sure you have the tools and materials you need, as well as instructions for installing your deck. Now you should be ready to go.
If you’ve done your homework beforehand, building your composite deck (hopefully with Fiberon) won’t require much more than a little time and patience.
Send us pictures of your Fiberon decking and we’ll post them to our Facebook Page.
