Before you create or improve your outdoor living space, a few words of advice.

Whether you hire a contractor or go DIY, installing a paver patio will add both functional space and lasting value to your backyard.

Sinking or uneven concrete can be dangerous. If you’ve ever tripped over an uneven section of sidewalk or slipped on ice formed in settled areas of your driveway, you know the risks firsthand. Concrete issues can impact the safety of your home, as well as its value; ignoring them can be a recipe for severe structural damage and serious injury.

As the rainy days slow to a trickle and the sun settles in for the summer months, we’re all heading outside. If you live in a typical Seattle neighborhood, you probably have little yard space and very close neighbors, which can make relaxing outdoors difficult. To help you out, I’d like to present a few project ideas to add a little privacy to your outdoor living space and help you make the most of the warm weather.

As one of only three 5-Star certified multifamily projects in Seattle, The Roost is a high-performing, energy- and resource-efficient building with 33 residential units and one large commercial space. Designed by Neiman Taber Architects, this building has many leading-edge energy efficient systems, including a rooftop solar thermal array that provides the building with most of its domestic hot water.

The garage is a very useful space that can serve many purposes other than housing cars, recyclables, and miscellaneous junk. It can potentially be a workshop, a game room, a place to hang out, or a fantastic storage space for organizing your overflow of goods.
