Yeah that would be a lot easier, pulled and replaced mine a couple of years
ago. Mine were too warped to go this way. Just get a big pry bar and pull
the old boards up. I'm sure you will be a lot happier with the result.
Fortunately it's a job you can do piecemeal.

Good luck

I need to replace the surface on my 200 ft sq deck here in SC. Can I
just nail/screw new deck treated/composite boards over the 27 year
old treated ones (maybe at a 45 or 90 degree angle), or do I need to
remove the old ones first?
