With the popularity of decking techniques like picture framing the in field decking, it is becoming more and more important to take the time to measure the framing exactly with the width and spacing of decking in mind. If you have not really accurately built the dimensions of the frame to accommodate perfectly the spacing and width of the decking, then its probably easier to start at the edge of the deck and fit the last custom sized piece in against the house where it is less visible. If you start at the house you could end up with a very narrow board at the end. However in either case you will likely have to cut the last board to width to fit.
