When you pull up to the the Hebert residence, one of the first things you notice is the large set of concrete steps leading up to their side entry, with a walkway leading only part way to the patio. When you take the walkway (or grass) to the back patio...you discover what used to be a beautiful patio years ago but now needs a little face lift.
We decided that the steps needed an overlay and the walk needed re-doing. We had so much fun designing the back patio and fire pit, complemented with a sitting bench incorporated into a retaining wall. We removed some of the old pavers in one part of the patio to create an inlay. What a difference vertical elements and some new pavers can make!
