The bad news is the scope just expanded to include expanding the patio.
The good news is we hires a mason to do the finish coat of stucco.
Man, one little engine fire and now you are a stone mason. Condolences.
I built it originally so nothing new. It needs to connect to the garage powder room and it would be nice to have a more defined fire pit or fireplace area.....the thought at the moment is the wall across the back will move 3 feet closer to the pool and the patio goes straight across to the garage. Still thinking.
The other more work project is the house garage doors need to match the new doors so yesterday was demo day
I need to frame the arch and get the base stucco on it so it's ready whenever the mason shows up to do finish coat.
I have a ton of shrinkage cracks in the base coat on the front of the garage, no idea why there and nowhere else. I'm going to fiberglass mesh tape them and do a gray finish coat with some acrylic , same texture as everywhere else hoping that gives me a better chance of no cracks in the real finish coat.
Finishing anything stucco stuff is my #1 priority because the mason is scheduling July, but he thinks this is a 1 day job so he may be able slip us in earlier and o want to be ready just in case.
