What happens here
After all wooden components of the deck are removed, conduct a thorough site cleanup. This includes gathering all remaining scraps of wood, nails, screws, and any other debris. The goal is to clear the entire area, leaving a clean, level surface ready for the next phase of landscaping or construction, specifically the ground-level patio. Double-check the area for any hidden hazards or forgotten materials.
Goal: Ensure the site is completely clear of debris and ready for new construction.
