Rebuilding a wooden deck
I rebuilt my wooden deck 25 years ago with treated 4 x 6 joists. I want to rebuild it with composite decking. I would need to double up on the joists. The existing joists look great with no rot or termites. Can I leave them in place or is it stupid to reuse them? The deck is 6 feet off the ground in Southern California and gets plenty of air circulation, no freezing weather, and little rain. submitted by /u/NOPdowop [link] [comments]
