[QUOTE="LDUBS, post: 512709, member: 21536"] I think I would keep the pedestal bases and not worry about it. I have two pedestal bases in the middle of my deck that are seldom used. I walk over them all the time and hardly know they are there. They are a low profile dome shape, very similar if not the same as the one on your front deck. If you want to fill the holes, I would get exterior ply or hardwood scraps. Then make a simple stepped plug and epoxy it in place. Like this maybe: [ATTACH type="full"]119815[/ATTACH] An alternative (maybe easier) approach would be to cut a rectangular piece of wood that will fit through the hole. Then glue/screw it underneath as a backer to support the round plug you will epoxy in place. Kind of like this: [ATTACH type="full"]119816[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
