What happens here
The wooden staircases, including risers and treads, are fully constructed, providing access between the different deck levels and to the ground. Following this, the circular patio surface is installed over the prepared gravel base. This involves carefully placing individual pavers or stone slabs, ensuring they are level and properly spaced. Any remaining stone work, such as accent pieces or capstones on the retaining walls, is also completed.
Goal: Complete all wooden staircases and install the final patio surface.
