Grant porch renovation

The long-awaited before/after of Mark's parents' front porch.


The porch needed help on so many levels.  It was dreadfully narrow, covered in nasty carpet-ish miniature golf course-like fabric.  And those steps.  Please look at those steps.  How a woman who has gone through so many knee problems, including surgery, got up and down those steps day in and day out is beyond me.  Props to Sherri for being such a patient good sport as she eagerly waited for a better way to get inside her house.



BAM!  That's the kind of art my husband can pull off.  That man never ceases to amaze me.  He can take any idea and turn it into a reality.  Notice where the porch ended before.  They (Mark and Tim) added 2 feet to the original width.  And 6 evenly spaced steps with sturdy handrails replace the 3 different sized steps with no handrail.
