So I have a 18x40 that has a 2 tiered deck. 4ft walk around at pool height with steps down to a lower level. The lower level was built in 2007. It has since started falling apart. Deck boards, treated 5/4 are now rotting and support 2x6s are also starting to come apart. The area is 20x20ish.
We do plan to install an in-ground pool in the future so I rather not spend too much on the deck.
Besides changing out certain deck boards that are messed up, is there any other type of covering that could be installed quickly and cheaply, without a major resurface/rebuild?
Changing some boards are an option but the framing over the years has split and screw are pulling out or have rusted to the point that the deck boards when heated up pull up.

TIA
 
Some new lumber may be the last expensive repair.

Post pics to show us your situation. I have some other ideas but need to see the layout of the problem area..
 
best pics I have on hand right now.
