Covered Back Porch & Fireplace project

Posted By on September 30, 2007

Back Porch
The final construction project that will complete the original plans for our home is underway as the masonry crew finished the foundation. We are adding a back porch and outdoor fireplace (left elevation) that replaces an existing deck which houses our hot tub. The new stamped concrete is in place of the 12 year old wood deck and will be large enough to include a stone outdoor fireplace. I’m excited to have foundations in before the fall weather turns sour and look forward to getting the the cement poured and roof started. Stay tuned as I’m sure I’ll post again.

    Rich I really like the masonry work and the layout. Looks like you will have a much stronger and bigger porch.

    Thanks Tim. It will be nice. I’ll have you over to relax on a cool evening when we get it finished. (this could be a joke as it might take until winter!)

    A VERY cool evening unless you are going to side and insulate your porch ;)

    We are considering an outdoor covered porch/screened porch with fireplace. Can you send me completed pics?
