What better way to spend a long weekend than moving 10,000 lbs of concrete blocks and sand.
The pictures are a little deceiving; the actual patio in 12'x28' (looks smaller in the pictures)
Here are the before and after pictures, enjoy …. Oh god my back hurts …






As a side note you will notice that every block around the perimeter needed cutting, being cheap I bought the 7" diamond blades for a skill saw from Princess Auto for $20, add a little water from the garden hose and we cut about 90 lineal feet of concrete blocks, wore out one blade and I don't expect my "very cheap" 25 year old B&D skill saw to last much longer

Jeezus...my back hurts looking at that. Looks vere nass...

Got some pics of my own to post up...but I forgot to bring the camera in the house...

very nice!

ciao

Damn man, Nice work!!!


Wanna come to my new place and do my patio like that?

Thanks Tyler
As for your patio I don't think you would want to wait for me to finish (this one took 2 years from the time when the Bobcat came and excavated,) nor do I think you could afford me (I charge by rhe hour, from job start to completion ).... but who knows, maybe in a few years I may be looking for another job ...

Wow, that looks great...but what goes there, or should I say parked there?

shhhh , don't tell Joan

I can't help but notice that there seems to be a patio in your parking pad...well good thing you have a portable garage to put up over top of it.

holy moly, beautiful work ian! Nice attention to detail

wish I could've helped.
