FRONT PATIO TRANSFORMATION — PART 2 OF 4
With the water problem corrected and the new concrete pads completed by others, it was time to begin shaping the new front courtyard.
Bob personally completed every phase shown here. The work began by laying out and building the new entry structure, carefully establishing the dimensions and elevations for what would follow. From there, the masonry block walls were constructed to define the courtyard and create a solid foundation for the finish materials and custom features still to come.
This stage required careful planning so the entry, walls and surrounding spaces would work together as one finished space—not simply look like separate additions.
Next in Part 3: installing the tile, stonework and custom details that transformed the structure into a finished outdoor space.
