A New Front Porch

By Monday, March 17, 2014

Around the time we remodeled my bathroom, we also had the front steps redone. The steps that were there before were made of brick and matched the color of the house. When our contractor noticed that some of the bricks were coming loose, my parents decided it was a good time for a new front porch. They had been thinking about redoing the front to match the back patio which is all done in slate. It only took our contractor a few days to finish the steps and it made a huge change to the look of the house.

 They started with tearing out the old bricks, breaking them up, and then using them to fill in the bottom step. Then they added concrete and built the other two steps. It's a remarkable improvement!
