UNBELIEVABLE Backyard MAKEOVER! Boring Backyard Turned Into Decked Out Paradise!
What happens here
After the deck framing is complete, prepare the ground beneath a designated section of the deck for a concrete patio slab. This involves removing debris and creating a level base. Install wooden forms to define the perimeter of the concrete slab. Mix and pour concrete into the forms, ensuring it is evenly spread and screeded to a smooth, level finish. This concrete slab will serve as the base for an outdoor seating area.
Goal: Create a level concrete patio slab beneath a section of the deck.
