Building A Covered Patio | Before & After
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
We added a covered patio onto our house and not just any patio... a patio with a 30ft span! This video follows our building journey starting with digging the footers, to finishing hanging the lights and everything in between... plus our learning experiences along the way!

Thank you so much! It was tough to fit everything in there... plus everybody’s situation is gonna be different. 🍊
This book is Awesome! I love the Lean-To-Shed the most (page 98). The plan kzread.infoUgkxe9yi0sulKgsp0VJJCIrLWWkvVqcU7LFR 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
