Enjoy this Incredible DIY backyard transformation where I saved over $20k by doing all of the work myself. This DIY backyard makeover involved a new fence, new deck, new patio, new shed, and much, much more!
When I bought my Fixer-Upper 🏚, the backyard was a DISASTER. It took a lot of work, but we finally got it cleaned up and transformed it into an incredible backyard where we can enjoy the outdoors!
This DIY backyard transformation involved quite a few different projects - and I have put together detailed DIY tutorial videos for each of them. See below ⬇️⬇️⬇️

@Caeric77 2 года назад

Watching this transformation was just so satisfying, especially since it's obvious that you took the extra steps to do it well rather than taking shortcuts (ex., tilling the ground before adding topsoil). Love the shed!

@dorothyk1925 2 года назад

I love everything, but my two favorite items are your planted seed for the grass and the privacy area for your garbage and recycling. I would love that for mine. So much work you put into the area from the fence, to the porch, the landscaping and the wonderful shed. The value you've increased your property is insurmountable! Really well done! I would hire you in a heartbeat 💓

@jahshuah 2 года назад

That transformation is incredible! One question I had was whether or not the cable running through the wood at an angle (to form the barrier on the deck) would eventually wear through the wood and cut channels in it due to tension. Has that ever been a problem? Would it be preferable to put something in the holes in the posts before passing the cable through (like a grommet or something)? Thanks!

@reef9999 Год назад

i was thinking the same thing. i had a similar project using cables and it warped after sitting in the sun and rain from tension of the cables. i wish i had atleast drilled and recessed and put a few washers or a grommet.
