Back garden refurb

You certainly have "the eye" and "the hand" @jowwy , creating something so pleasing, functional and harmonious. The dark stain on the wood looks very good, it sort of gives depth and form to the garden. I'll pinch that idea if you don't mind

How many times have you fallen off the change of level in the lawn so far? My friend has a similar step that looks great and keeps their first aid box well refreshed when their mates come over for drinks

 

Luckily for me i havent drunk for 14yrs, so no fally overs for me…….thanks for the comments, really appreciated.

 

You have done an amazing job, you should be proud of yourself! Wish I had half the talents you had.

Did you have any more new updates ?

 

At the moment im building a 4mtr x 8mtr veranda over the decking. I started doing it solo, but after putting up 3 of the 11 roof panels, i realised i needed help. So on the weekend i will finish the first section of 4mtrs x 4mtrs….and then order the panels for the next section and take a few days off doing anything while i wait for them to arrive

 

First roof now all completed…….2nd roof structure will get built this week and then i will order the polycarb to sheet it over.

Will also trim all the ends of the timbers on tuesday when my mate, whos 6ft 8 amd doesnt need a ladder comes to help me.

 

We are starting to get there now, got to fit the roof to the right hand deck and then trim all the ends of the timbers…..then paint the walls and fill the right hand two tier flower bed, with flowers lol

 

Not too shabby after a few weeks hardwork

 

Wow, looking good

 

That is looking super @jowwy - an immaculate bit of work - it'll be nice when you get the chance to sit down and enjoy it!

 

I sat out there today watching the fa cup final....was gorgeous

 

I need to update this thread as quite a few things have changed since my last update…….

 

Will take some pics tmrw, i forgot to do it when i was watering all the garden just now

 

A night time shot

 

I also recovered the front of the man cave
