This book is Awesome! I love the Lean-To-Shed the most (page 98). The plan ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxe9yi0sulKgsp0VJJCIrLWWkvVqcU7LFR is to attach it to the back of my brick house. I also like how they walk you through the many different steps of construction, which is important for the less experienced like me.
You guys did a great job exactly what I’m trying to do at my house but I can never explain it to any contractor that comes by for an estimate. This is perfect!
That's a really great job you did there. Very impressed. In Australia, we do things a little differently, but I love those steel brackets. Usually, we notch out the posts and insert the beam, which would have been tricky with such a thick beam. Metal brackets definitely have their place there. Nice work.
Audience, Hello Sandy and good afternoon. I'm looking for a good contractor in my area to close in my existing covered patio. I'm have also considered adding a luxury covered patio next to my enclosure. The way you completed yours looks fantastic. I think you built yours right on the bullseye. Kudos on your next upcoming DIY projects.
All in All I give you guys a -A, it could have been a A+ had you used a skip loader on the concrete and learned how to use a Circular Saw but, yeah...you guys are Awesome....love the Pup
That looks great I like the style it seems too me that the reason the wood on the front is soo wide is because it has to be and the roof was cut for the same reason too get a little more length thumbs up
One of the biggest benefits of going DIY, is so you can save money! Yet, I see a lot of people asking for a rough idea of cost without a reply? Seems like something almost all people watching are curious about... even a ballpark!
bluesti3 I’ve answered several times. Plus I have a blog post with more details. But it is very different for everyone based on where they are located, what kind of construction is allowed where they are, etc. I don’t like to give an estimate to give a false information. The video was more to document our journey and hopefully inspire someone, letting them know you can do hard things if you really want to. 🍊
Nice job. I am also in the east Valley and would like to have something that can stand up to micro-bursts and monsoon and block the sun. That cross beam looks like it will do the job.
We went with the big beam so that we could span the 30 feet and not have to have posts in the middle of the patio. That way nothing to block the view from inside.
Great work, I love it I am about to be furloughed next month so I am thinking about building a gazebo in the backyard and I was looking at the Simpson strong ties. The beefy black hardware gives a nice touch and almost industrial. Great work I am inspired.
Those post and beams where definitely over kill for a middle class home , also those tiny screws to hold the post and beams together are gonna break easily with the first winds , should of gone with at least 5/8 bolts and nuts with washers to hold those suckers down good cause I wouldn’t be able to sleep at night with using those tiny screws
nice patio cover, what made me stop at your vid was the glue lam... I'm trying to span 16ft with only 2 beams... not sure if it will happen. Yes Simpson brackets are the bomb.... great work, looks good
Can’t really tell in the video but did Simpson mention that the posts should be 3/4” off of the base plate so the posts can dry out ? I really like the design y’all came up with and incorporated it into our 40’ container cabin build we went out 12’ from the box ( container) to the lvl beam which has a 1/2” plate steel sandwiched between the lvl’s to create a flitch beam. So a big shout out to y’all for your diligence in design and want to. Your build really looks terrific.
This is probably now in the top 10 craziest videos I’ve seen on UA-cam till this day. I applaud you for the good creative video you made. How long did it talk you to make this video?
What are your plans for the floor? Extending the slab, demo old slab and pour all new, leaving the slab and installing pavers on top and extending out to the new roof line?
We plan on taking out existing slab and then pouring 2ft x 4ft concrete pavers with an aggregate finish. It has changed a couple of times, but that is what it is for now.
Thank you so much for that wonderful video and information laminated beam I would like to do the same thing to my back porch and be able to put a kitchen outdoor kitchen in it couldn’t figure out how to spend the beam that long without a brace in the middle which I did my instructor view of the pool like yours thanks again
Cover the beam in the front, exposure to water when it rains, will cause separation of the 2 by6 eventually. I know its exterior glue but is will still happen over time. Trim out with some 1 by cedar.
Seems good so far! Was easy to talk to about his My Shed Plans [Go Here=> *WoodBlueprints. Com* ]. Guided me in the right direction & helped me understand everything & in the end it was what I wanted
looks great I'm gonna use this a s a guide to put our patio cover on. FYI i notice the link to strongtie in your description is mis-typed and doesn't go to the strong tie website.
I cannot, for the life of me, find the brackets that mount the big beam to the posts. I’ve been all over the website! They have the T and L brackets, but those look soooo nicely done
Wish you would’ve filmed more of the entire process including the roof as that’s something important for those attaching to their roof line. I’d say the trie star of the show is that handsome devil Aussie you have! My two Aussies would love him! The best part about an Aussie, besides their unmatched intelligence, is that fluffy butt!!! Lol I really like the end result which is why I complained about needing more footage. So glad you didn’t stain your wood! It’s gorgeous as it is and really compliments the black accents. I personally will use timber framing methods of strong ties except for of course the base. I’m shocked out how much concrete was used! I’ve seen many other builders add a simple square of concrete and basically like what you’ve done with installing the brackets while the concretes is wet, just never to the degree of cement you used. I’ve seen others who merely stick their posts in ground (depending on what kind) without concrete altogether as well. It’ll last you a long while though
Our footers were on the big side because of the large span but a little big due to a miscalculation, but better bigger than smaller. I got the info from our architect. As for the roofline part... that was the part I was the least sure of so didn’t want to share too much of it if was not done correctly. But so far no leaks! And yes Aussies are Awesome! Thanks for your feedback and watching the video!
I love that you explained some of the engineering required for this project and still managed to keep the video down to 11 minutes. Fantastic build!
Thank you so much! It was tough to fit everything in there... plus everybody’s situation is gonna be different. 🍊

Increments of 4ft... 4, 8, 12 16 etc. Lumber usually comes in these dimensions. Less waste. The onyk exception to this is 10ft. That works as well.
This is the first pergola video I’ve seen that’s been properly built and structurally safe. Great work!
Thank you! 🍊
This structure is not going anywhere.. even Tsunami will not hurt this structure, it’s so strong. Built to survive anything. Good work 🙏🏻
You guys did a great job exactly what I’m trying to do at my house but I can never explain it to any contractor that comes by for an estimate. This is perfect!
Awesome job, I clapped after I saw the difference, also love that you and you husband worked on this project together- Again; awesome job!
I'm a master carpenter. And I get impress. Whit you patio. Congrats 👏 looks awesome 👌
Those brackets definitely steal the show great job.
They do indeed.
You're amazing woman and your job was wonderful and perfect.
Thank you so much! 🍊
You're welcome and I like work with you someday.
Simp

Great project and great video, Sadie! I loved watching it! Totally inspires me.
Yay! Thank you so much for checking it out Erin! I appreciate the support!
All you need now is a paver patio and outdoor kitchen and it would look awesome
Right! I am hoping this fall we can get some of that done. 🍊
That thing came out awesome. Good job.
Thank you so much! We love it. 🍊
Wow that looks great!!!
Bent's Woodworking Thanks Jason! Maybe when your in town next we can have a meet up here! 🍊

Beverly Roemer Awesome! Happy building! 🍊
It looks awesome...all of it! I especially like the pairs of columns on each end with that robust beam. Good job and thanks for sharing your project!
Awe thanks! I appreciate that. 🍊
Literally having my contractor build this right on. Thanks for sharing.
Awesome! I'd love to see a pic when they are done.
Thinking about building this as well, do you have any pictures of your build? Thank you.

Usually, we notch out the posts and insert the beam, which would have been tricky with such a thick beam. Metal brackets definitely have their place there. Nice work.
Wow! Like it so much. It is what I need right now. A diy cover for my patio. Great job. God Bless you.
Thank you so much! 🍊
Congratulations. It looks like it's going to look amazing !! Thank you for sharing this beautiful work!👏👏😘😘
Ariel Palacios Thank you so much! We are enjoying it and can’t wait to finish the flooring and paint the house! 🍊
fantastic! that was great to watch! Thanks for not editing out the errors of the build. Greg (garden grove, CA)

Thank you! The front beam is wide because of the span and the roof is cut to get the height so we don’t block the view from inside. 🍊
The dogs crack me up. Looks great .
Thanks! The dog is Oscar!!! 🍊
Wow that's a hell of a footer for a porch roof
Indeed it is.... part of it was due to the span and part was a little miscalculation on my part. But better bigger than not big enough. 🍊

Very nice to watch video of people knowing about construction I like wonderful guys

Absolutely Amazing Renovation
Thank you so much! 🍊
Simpson Stron Tie products are excellent. I built a pergola using that hardware and it never fails to get a "wow".
I agree, their products are AWESOME! And are what I get the most compliments on when people come over. 🍊
Awesome job! Looks like a fun hang out.
Tim Kozak Thanks Tim! It is... maybe a Desert AZ Makers meetup is in order! 🍊

Oh but it looks AWESOME and has had zero issues for the past four years! 🍊
Low IQ comment tbh

Good lord that roofing job is a hack.not the metal the shingles However this project is awesome. Very detailed and great video.

A very well done to all of you

It was mainly for the 30ft glulam.

Tommy Gunn Heck yeah they are! 🍊
Wow it’s simply amazing!
Thank you so much! We really love how it turned out. 🍊
Totally awesome 👏
Great job you are a worker very impressive!!

Thanks for the idea. We have the beam sealed for now.
Beautiful! I love how it came out 😍
Thank you! Me too! 🍊

I cannot, for the life of me, find the brackets that mount the big beam to the posts. I’ve been all over the website!
They have the T and L brackets, but those look soooo nicely done
The are CC or column caps and ECC end column caps. We special ordered ours black powder coated. I hope that helps. 🍊
Wow that is beautiful congrats!
Thank you! 🙌🍊
Looks amazing!
Good job! Great narration and accurate description of the process!
Thanks! I think editing and story telling is harder than building, but I am getting better with practice.
Amazing
Robert Garza Thank you! 🍊
A Little bit too extreme but it turned out great, goodjob
Thanks! We love it. 🍊
Great job! I love it! Drastically improved the overall appearance of the house.
Thanks! I agree. Now can’t wait to paint the house! 🍊
How much did it all cost?
Amazing work!
It's nice hands down but i think its little over kill
Thanks! It fits our needs perfectly.
Let wi I’m b I’m
You put so much work into it, it would've looked 10x better if you just shingled the add on to match the rest of the roof.
I love how the metal looks from underneath and the sound when it rains is awesome. It’s perfect for me. 🍊

Thank you! Thanks for watching! 🍊
Make sure u get a crane...
I really like it.
Pedro Aguilera Thank you so much! 🍊
really nice job.. do you think similar structure but stand alone (without leaning against the house) would work as well..
I am Montagnard I like that porch
Thank you! 🍊
Am looking at doing one like this but 20x30 thank you for some ideas
Glad I could help. Happy building.
Bravo!
ELLIOTT MORIARTY Thank you! 🍊
Beautifull build. The dimension of the front beam, was that for looks only or do you expect much snow??
Thank you! No snow here… the thickness was for the span. 🍊
