Adding a Gazebo To An Existing Deck | How To

We wanted to build a roof over our entire deck but the cost was too high for our budget. So, we decided to buy a Backyard Discovery 12' x 10' Brookdale Gazebo kit from Sam's Club. (affiliate link) This gazebo kit completes our 2021 deck makeover! This hard top gazebo kit was easy to assemble and had easy to follow instructions but there were struggles when installing it on top of our deck. I had to brace the existing deck to prevent it from collapse. We also had a very hard time getting the roof sections on top of the assembled gazebo. The instructions stated it would take two adults. But we had five people to put the deck roof on and still had struggles. Of course, it likely would have been easier if the gazebo had been installed on a slab or on the ground. You can see full resolution images below the video on this post. See how we did it in this video.
