Re: Plywood Deck Core Work

A quick note on holes in the deck, there are twice as many as necessary. All the deck hardware was pulled and repositioned at some previous point in time. And incidentally all the deck hardware that...

Re: Plywood deck core work

Cheechako, I believe you're right in that there was moisture in or on the wood. Some sections that peeled off show wood that looks darker and a bit like it may have mold spots on it compared to...
