We built a BACKYARD PATIO

  • In this video we chronicle, from start to finish, our backyard patio project.
    ----
    FAQs:
    1) Is the patio roof flat or sloped? The roof is sloped 6in from the house to the edge of the patio. This is the lowest possible slope in accordance with building codes in our area. Though not shown in the video we install 6in flashing where the patio roof meets the fascia.
    2) Why didn't you show how you wrapped the columns in stone? We have a separate video where we show that process. Check it out here: Stone Wrapped Columns Video: • DIY Stone WRAPPED COLUMNS
    3) What color is the stain? We use Pecan by Ready Seal
    4) Did you pour the concrete pad? The concrete pad was the only thing we contracted out. We had to prep it, grade it, and do the rebar ourselves. My uncle (who lives down the street) was pouring his patio the same day and he was kind enough to let me place an order for extra concrete. It saved us money since we didn't have to pay for the truck, just the concrete and labor.
    5) How much did the project cost? We spent around $2K-$2.5K on the project. Most of the materials were purchased before the increase in lumber costs.

    • @myacrehouse3500
      @myacrehouse3500  2 роки тому +40

      It looks flat in the video but it is sloped. We did the lowest allowable slope per code in our area. It drops 6in from the house to the end of the patio. It's flashed well and we have had no leaks.

    • @johnwaters7920
      @johnwaters7920 2 роки тому +4

      Yes nice video the same question. When you have a patio cover you need a pitch 1/2” fall per foot.This looks like there is no fall not even 1/4” per foot. So when it rains the water will go back towards the house. Also why didn’t you include the wrap around your posts with the nice mason work.?

    • @oneofgodschildren
      @oneofgodschildren 2 роки тому

      I was just about to ask why he didn't slope it a little bit? Idk where this is as usual nobody tells the state it is. I'm in lower Michigan and no way would this pass code.

      The concrete pour was the only thing we contracted out. I wish I would've recorded them pouring the slab. The only thing we did ourselves was frame it out, grade it, and put the rebar in.

  • @Helpfulchase
    @Helpfulchase 2 роки тому +3

    Question for you. With your screw pattern on the tin roof and the fact you did this vertically from the house do you end up with leakage or damage to your rafters? I have seen a couple types of tin roofing where when done this way they aren’t as wide and overlap the previous panels screws to avoid this or obviously if done horizontally from bottom to top and a slight over hang from the natural roof you end up with no leakage. Just wondering if you used any type of caulking or sealant? Looks great and that back yard is going to be even more amazing when that tree you planted really grows in! Beautiful country

    • @myacrehouse3500

    • @myacrehouse3500
      @myacrehouse3500  2 роки тому
