Tear Off Old Decking the Fast and Easy Way!Until now, deck removal was best left to the heavy equipment like bulldozers and back-hoes. Corroded ring shank nails may pop up by themselves, but actually pulling them from the joist is a real job, and most crowbars, catspaws, and even sledge hammers are of limited use. The Duckbill Deck Wrecker was specifically designed for deck removal, and it works! This tool provides the leverage needed to easily pry up old, stubborn deck boards. It consists of two heavy gauge steel claws that straddle a single or double joist. Place these under the offending deck board and let the 17:1 leverage ratio do the work. The tool shaft is pinned to the head so that the head may be rotated 180 degrees for better access when working close to a wall or a deck rail.
When removing a deck installed with screws, first remove the screws with an impact driver or driver drill. Deck Wrecker will remove the deck boards, but pulling the screws from the joist generally results in severe damage (primarily splitting) making the joists unusable. 15-year workmanship warranty. Heavy-duty fiberglass handle. Made in USA.

Saves time and knuckles

Comments about Duckbill Deck Wrecker:
This tool saved me about 2-3 days of removing nailed deck boards from a 15 x 30 deck, as well as a few knuckles. What is virtually impossible to do with a flat bar is accomplished in seconds with this tool. If you're going to tear up nailed decking, this is a no-brainer.
As advertised this tool does the job!!!

Used the "deck wrecker" to renovate my old deck and it removes old nailed deck planks without breaking them. Saves a lot of time too!

I purchased The Duckbill after having a hell of a time using a sledge and a regular decking bar. I was a bit concerned about this new product doing the job, but when it arrived [...]and I tried it on my deck that was fastened with nails from hell, I almost cried tears of joy. Duckbill was so easy to use and saved so much time it was amazing. I would recommend this product to anyone who has decking to rip out!
It"s what it says

Saved the day removing deck boards. Started out removing nails with cats paw, I would still be at it without Duckbill Deck Wrecker.
Describs just what it does.
As it states in the advertisment it does what it says. I started out removing deck boards using a cats paw. If I didn't purchase I'd still be at it.
