you can do it yourself with some friends, speedy

most important part is measuring for the footings and making sure they're level...maybe you can hire someone to do that because the rest isn't rocket surgery

do a search online for instructions...hell, there's probably youtube vids you can watch

can knock it out in a weekend

I could do it myself.
If I was a licensed contractor, and could pull permits.

The little Village of River Grove Il wont allow me to build my own deck.

Fuckers!
