Hey Everyone!
My wife and I recently purchased a home and I've done several renovations around the house (new kitchen, painted the house, new shutters, new landscaping) and there is one thing left on my to-do list, but I'm hesitant and wanted some advice before I proceed.
On the side of our house, we have a door leading to our driveway. There is currently a hiedous white metal awning. Eventually, when the money is there I'd like to build out and make a small porch, but until then I'm stuck with this god-awful awning.
I would love nothing more to just ahead and rip this thing off the side of the house. I'm just hesistant to do so, I can't really think of any issues it would cause, but I just want to double check I'm not missing anything big. I know the moulding around the door frame and trim would need some serious water proof caulking, but other than that is there any reaso nI can't go home tonight and suprise my wife and get rid of this thing? Our back door does not currently have an awning and I do not notice water leaks or anything.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!!
