So Ive been building a patio on the back of my house.Theres no shade outside, so it had to be covered, and the mosquitoes are terrible, so it had to be screened. Ill post the finished pics first, then the in progress ones after:
The entry side. You can see the bamboo screen on the inside to keep the afternoon sun out.
From the other side.
Looking in from the doorway. Theres 2 ceiling fans inside for maximum airflow.
Looking back at the door.
Standing in the middle looking out at the banana trees. Notice the hammock, it stretches across and is perfect for afternoon naps.
Chairs & cooler in place (I didnt build the furniture, btw)
Weird plant hanging inside. Its an antler fern.
Budzillas not sure about the waterfountain.
OK, now were Bud approved.
In progress shots below. Hidden in a spoiler tag in case you dont give a shit
Main posts set and deck built. This was over 2 weekends.
Roof framed up.
Decking shingles & hardi plank(most of it) installed.
Sides framed in and beginning to close in the bottom.
Bottom closed in, trim added, door installed, rest of hardi plank put on.
Screens installed. From here it was all inside work.
Ill answer any questions I can. In the mean time Ima go swing in the hammock.
