And the deck V2 is done.
Here is the old area/deck before they started all the work. The deck looks so small it’s hiding behind the BBQ and all the stones.
Here is the new deck. It’s much bigger, better and more usable. It really does make a big difference and change the whole look. All in all we are pretty happy with the progress so far. However, I am relieved they had a day on another job yesterday, as grateful as I am for the progress I was a bit over the endless hammering. I think it took them about 4 full days in the end. Not bad going.
And as a bit of a bonus here is the before and after pics showing the new step for the laundry. Pretty happy with that! It means I can now actually stand on it with the laundry trolley and not have to balance on one leg. Mike is a little sad about retiring his makeshift step that we have used for almost 4 years now (I wasn’t too bothered) but he seems quite attached and wants to find another place for it somewhere.
Now we just wait for the next phase to begin. Will it be the tidying up of the front door or will it be the BBQ area… Watch this space.
