Any tips for removing screws holding down deck boards? They are black drywall type screws about 3" long. Most were countersunk, covered with putty, then the deck was painted. I'm near the ocean, so m

I've not tried it, but what happens if you use a left-handed drill bit, maybe around 1/4" diameter, and start drilling into the screw head (with the drill running in reverse of course)? Seems like it

Try this.......get a piece of steel tubing (like brake line) that has an ID slightly larger than the head of the screw. Sharpen one end. Plug the other end with a piece of dowel rod so that it won't

I think if I didn't care about the deck boards and they were in any kinda bad condition, I'd be tempted to use a chisel to split the board around the screw. But the holesaw idea sounds like it could

Eric - This looks like a useful product and it theory, should be great. The reviews do lead me to question the durability. With an estimated 200 screws with stripped heads, they would get pretty expe

When we removed our old deck our contractor recommended just using a circular saw to cut the boards along each side of the joists. We ended up with a ton of foot long boards (it was a large deck), bu

With a drill bit slightly larger than the shaft of the screw, drill out the head. The drill should auto center and quickly separate the head of the screw from the shaft. Then just pry out as if the h

That's what I did, except I used a chain saw - more fun. I'd consider using a metal blade in a reciprocating saw to remove the screws and remaining scrap wood, unless there's some reason to not leave
