Challenges & Solutions
Challenge:
Figuring out how to make the new covered patio seem as if it was part of the original design to the home.
Solution:
We solved the challenge by extending an existing roof line with new metal roofing and built a new frame, following the removal of old shingles.
Challenge:
During the building process of this covered patio, the homeowners preferred the posts to be placed on the brick edge. However, upon excavation, we discovered that the footing beneath the brick patio was not deep enough to support the posts safely and securely.
Solution:
To address the insufficient footing depth, we slightly extended the roof and installed the posts on a newly poured concrete footing. This approach ensured the posts were supported by a foundation with the proper measurements, providing stability and safety for the structure.
