Removal of Old Deck

I never liked the tri-level deck that came with our house; then last year the hail damaged our siding and deck, so now we are getting ready for new siding, a new deck, and someday, a garden. The photo above is Circa 2002; just after we bought our house.

The back wall has been re-sided and the deck framing has been built

The deck framing had to be moved to put in a french drain

The french drain was built next to the foundation
