After about 2 months in Council approvals, finally, the patio roof went up. I designed and had this built (by professionals, wasn’t going to DIY this one) to collect heat during the winter months. It was completed just in time for summer, so I wont know how effective it is for the winter months until next year, but it has created a beautiful space regardless. A couple of shots here showing before and after of the patio roof going up. I have used Stratco 2000 Series Polycarbonate in Bronze to match the Jasper colourbond on the rest of the house. All of the steels were powder-coated in the Jasper also, which is a perfect match to the Drifting Drab (brown) fence. Next is the deck, which I have already started, that will be the next post.
