From there, it was on to the Deck – Porch - and driveway.
Did the deck first – as that first step from the master suite was a little rough.
Used trek for the decking – best material ever
Rails
Finished product
Porch was next on the list – did this in a couple weekends
Foundation wall
My attempt at stone work...just look at the gut on that guy
Little concrete later.
Little paint to the wall…
Then – on to the driveway.
1st, needed to get rid of the existing jungle and vines
And I wanted to level out the front yard
Old wall was falling apart
Can’t do all the work without one of these. Best 8 grand spent ever
Starting the retaining wall. These things were 50lbs each (IIRC)
And the concrete work. I had to do this over several weekends…
Brownie points with the wife – little flower box
And the finished driveway
