Brick Patio w/ Pergola
|
|
-
The 'before shot' with the existing 10x15 concrete slab --not much space for a family of 7! -
The 'umbrella stage' --we completed our patio in stages --after adding the brick we used 3 large umbrellas for shade --this is BEFORE adding the pergola. -
-
Our new 12x40 pergola --we spend so much time out here enjoying our space. We hope to add wisteria or confederate jasmine very soon for extra shade.
We started out with just a 10x15 slab of concrete (before shot) and after lots of patience and hard work we turned in into a 12x40 patio w/ pergola where we enjoy lots of fun family times and grilling. We still have lots to do with the yard etc but one project at a time!
