Summary of the video and exclusive content :
 
Pascal Tremblay (The Clever Gardener) is a Webmaster and certified contributor to the website Gardening Homesteading USA-UK-Canada. He shares with us, among other things, his numerous projects presented step-by-step on topics such as gardening, DIY, and self-sufficiency.
 
 
In this video, Pascal Tremblay, a horticulturist and DIY enthusiast, presents the construction steps for an elevated wooden deck and a covered wraparound porch on a country house. Piles, framing, decking, railings, staircase, and decorative elements inspired by traditional verandas.
 
 
 
Content of the video :
 
We carried out major renovations on our house, which was built in 1952.

To give it a country-style look, we decided to build a covered porch with traditional decorative elements. The period-style porch will wrap around the house.

Additionally, to take full advantage of the stunning view of the Saguenay Fjord, we also built a large raised wooden deck at the back of the property. Underneath this wooden deck, a storage space will be added.

  • Demolition and installation of the rim joist.

  • Install the screw piles for the deck and porch.

  • Wood framing and joist installation.

  • Deck floor boarding.

  • Railings and staircases.

  • The result: A charming Victorian-style country deck and porch.

No-Grass Front Yard Landscaping Ideas
  No-Grass Front Yard Landscaping Ideas
   
  The Clever Gardener (Pascal Tremblay) shares how he transformed the front of his home with a beautiful, no-grass garden. While front yards are traditionally covered in turf, demanding hours of mowing and upkeep. A fresh, eco-friendly trend is turning things around. More and more homeowners are swapping their lawns for lush gardens or vibrant vegetable patches. And with good reason: these urban gardens not only offer a touch of beauty and charm, but they also promote self-sufficiency with homegrown fruits and veggies, all while staying kind to the planet.
