Porch is getting rebuilt, new front door on and apex roof on top




Back Garden



There was soil at the top of the steps retained by a bit of wood, which collapsed on me so i've dug it all out revealing an extra step



Steps need rebuilding as they are quite steep and unstable, need some ideas on what to do?





I've started to build up the wall at the bottom end of the steps, as they were open and its quite dangerous, put some timber battens as its my first attempt at building a wall so want it to be as straight and level as possible so it will be strong enough with the height



Landing is pretty much done apart from glossing the skirtings/architravels





more to follow .............

Looks good mate, and the wall looks like a very good job, although I'm not a bricklayer so not exactly an expert!

You better get on with it though - won't have much work come Monday
