Looking strong

 


Speaking of strong, just one person built this yesterday. Step risers are tricky! And the day before, he did all the demolition himself.

As far as decks go, this isn't a big project, but we were expecting a crew. It doesn't matter, as long as the job gets done right. Our worker is Romanian and has a strong accent, but good enough English. He is obviously experienced and very anxious to please us.

Still, after detailed consultations with the company salesman and a written bid/contract, it does seem odd (and somewhat inconvenient) that we're having to explain the project from scratch as we go along. Anyway, so far so good, and we certainly can't fault his work. 

The footprint of the deck isn't larger, but those wonderful wide steps should really open things up. And instead of that boxed in look, we'll have open railings. One more dry day before heavy rain comes back. Let's see how much he gets done today.
