We’re Getting a New Porsche

Porch! Did I say Porsche? Well, before all is said and done, I could easily buy a Porsche for what this project will cost us.

Back story: the porch was sinking and falling off our house due to a poor drainage plan and very bad construction. Essentially, they built this porch on loose fill rather than compacted soil. We had to demolish the old porch, clean it all out, and pour a new footer for it that DOES rest on solid ground. Frankly, it turned into a MUCH bigger project than we expected.

This project started out on May 3rd — and wrapped up with new sod completed finally on August 1st.  Yes, about 3 months.  It was a long journey … or, I mean, “growth opportunity!”
