How difficult would it be?

Question

Dismantel large decking, install at another house.

Answer 1

yeah what that last bloke said!

Answer 2

only one I've managed to take apart was put together with hidden fixings.  Screwed down decks are just as hard to get up as nailed ones as after 6 months all the s***w heads are full of rubbish.

Answer 3

It would need to be completely dismantled..

essentially, you would be building a new deck with used lumber....

It would be easier to start with new lumber.. and probably cheaper when you consider the time spent dismantling....

Answer 4

Buy new you will not regret it

Answer 5

Almost impossible. Get new decking and save the heartache.

Advice from someone who tried it

Answer 6

if it's screwed , should be o.k.

Answer 7

Difficult but not beyond impossible , if the deck is to fit in the same configuration , its going to be hard , but if you are willing to make use of what you salvage,  then   go for it , buy a nail punch and start punching them nails below deck level before lifting boards , the ends may need to be trimmed , turned and re coated after re fitting but on a tight budget it will save you
