Hey all,
I just bought a house that I'll be upgrading before I move the family in. The major contruction (new kitchen) will be handled by my contractor but I plan on laying a brick patio off the side of the house and doing some landscaping. I plan on laying bricks on a dry bed of crushed stone + sand after I figure out how to level the area.
I'm having a sliding door installed to lead out to the area. I attached a pic with a crude paint over of where the door will be. That tree against the house will go plus the hedges will be squared off.
As far as covering that basement window I have two other plus a bulkhead so I'm only worried about how to fill in the space.
Any suggestions on the leveling?!? What about steps to the door?thanks.
