Repairing a deck

454 Views 1 Reply 2 Participants Last post by  carpdad
Do I need to use 6x6 pressure treated posts over 4x4 pressure treated post. The footing is 5ft apart. It's a raised deck. The deck is 12ft from the house and 20ft in length. There is only 2 beams holding up the joists at the moment so I'm aiming for the 4x4s

4x4 treated tend to twist and split more, so even if you're allowed, it's better to use 6x6.
