It came out very nice! I wouldn't have left the OSB facing the elements though. Water will make that swell and chip off after a couple of years. T-11 siding will hold up much better and given the design would only have taken 4-5 sheets. Enjoy it!
Looks awesome!!! I’m building the same structure for my patio. What did you do for flashing on the roof where the house and the structure meet and if you have any pictures or videos would be greatly appreciated!
I put flashing under the edge of the steel roof and overlapped it with the roof of the porch. However in hindsight I'd suggest putting a proper shingled roof on, drip edge and caulk the seam
Good point! We made the wood frames.then wrapped the screen and stapled it to the frames. Put the frames in the window opening from the inside and screwed in place. Thsi allows us to remove and replace the screen if required
I used 8" x 8" rebar post holders. Drilled them into the deck and blocked and support underneath. www.google.com/url?q=griffbuildingsupplies.com/products/post-saddles-with-rebar%3Fvariant%3D44177035526463%26currency%3DCAD%26Dproduct_sync%26Dgoogle%26Dsag_organic%26Dsag_organic%26srsltid%3DAfmBOopLLIPZUVljcHtElG7TY9Rzo3VzHjWw41PCGCP1qrnRzVUJKxyQrc0&opi=95576897&sa=U&ved=0ahUKEwidk52C6ryFAxU8lIkEHcmqD3sQsDwIoAQ&usg=AOvVaw37vcEis3Ur-55LW8wcyfqr
I would have thought you would have wanted a header to support the roof where you removed soffit and fascia? The existing looks like overhang that you attached the ledger board to.
Awesome. Looks very similar to our cottage. Curious to know what the dimensions of the the screened in part is. Also, if you needed a permit? Not judging...just curious. We want to do the same thing. Thanks. Also, what part of Canada are you in?
Awesome, am in the process of getting my plans approved by my County, I will be using the same design due to the cantilever on my deck. What’s the height of the beam?
Post just on top directly over the support below to carry the load. I old structure is super solid so that made me me feel more comfortable. Been over a year and hasn't moved at all.
Wow nice job, looks great. I have been told that a similar build is too heavy for my deck? My deck is only 3 feet off the ground, is NOT attached to the house, Free Floating on cement pads. Do you have some idea of what kind of weight you have there? Are your main beams away from the house sitting on ? or Just over your ledger boards? In one picture it looks like you cut into the deck? another shows what looks to be post cleats? Then the two posts next to the house? Are they sitting on the ground or deck? I see you braced them to the house. Last question how well did this build go through winter? I am in central Ontario and worry with the kind of snow storms and this year Thunderstorms if I would need to over kill the build? Thank you for sharing, This project has been on my mind since we retired here and that was just pre co-vid, so you are aware of issues we have been dealing with as to getting things done. Enjoy your place and stay well.
I figure it's about 1,000 lbs because the roofing is light weight. My deck is affixed to the house with pillar supports back and front. The 2 main beams are in post cleats that sit directly above the posts underneath with additional blocking for support. The 2 posts next to house are sitting on the deck. They are only for the walls and do not carry any of the weight load. I threw in an L bracket to keep them square while building it - they have since been removed. It made it through the winter with no issues, movement, etc.. still level plumb and square. Adding in extra support can hurt IMO. Better to have too much than too little.
@@insanitycarnival27 Thank you again so much and what a lovely job you did. Can't wait to see what i end up with. lol Can only hope it turns out as nice as yours. Enjoy and relax, you earned it.
@@insanitycarnival27 Thank you again, this is very helpful and its's great you have had no issues. I currently have a canvas type gazebo and it's getting old and wearing. Think I will finish out this year with it and then see what the lumber stores are asking? for material. but thanks again hope you get to really enjoy it
wow, that is so cozy and beautiful!! love it!
Wow very simple but very beautiful, can’t wait to start my project thanks for this amazing video.
Beautiful. Thank you for the inspiration.
love the project and love the views of the lake, thanks for sharing

Beautiful project!
Awesome, recommend siding to complete the look
Good call!
Very nice
Im curious how well that vinyl flooring and 2-way tape held out.
Still good?
Still Good!
It is beautifully
Would love to know how you installed and framed the screens
Good point! We made the wood frames.then wrapped the screen and stapled it to the frames. Put the frames in the window opening from the inside and screwed in place. Thsi allows us to remove and replace the screen if required
nice work nice view
Beautiful
Can you please build us one
Would you mind sharing what a rough estimate of the cost of this project ?
$3500 for everything complete including the roof.
@@insanitycarnival27I take it that Canadian not US correct
@@The.Artistic.Squirrel correct canadian. Most likey 30% to 40% more now
Looks great! How did you install the posts? I want to do this in my backyard

Well made and solid editing
Did you seal the gaps between the siding and the posts?
Yes I used foam gap filler on both sides
Hi! Husband and I are looking to do something similar, do you remember what this might have costed you when you did this?
It cost us $3,500 Canadian
Awesome. Looks very similar to our cottage. Curious to know what the dimensions of the the screened in part is. Also, if you needed a permit? Not judging...just curious. We want to do the same thing. Thanks.
Also, what part of Canada are you in?
The porch is 12' x 12 approximately. I always recommend getting a permit!
I would prefer all three sides open to get more light in.
How to do seal up against the vinyl siding where you started your room
@@jamiegray4569 spray foam
Are those 6x6 against the house and at the beginning of the video? I am about to try to mimic this design for my porch in a week or so.
Yes 6" x 6" There only there for the sides to attach to. They don't have any roof weight on them.
Nice💪🏽
How much does something like that cost?
It cost us $3,500 canadian
What are the post holding the roof up sitting on the deck ? I want to build a roof over my 16x20 deck.
Yes the posts are sitting on top of the deck using post form brackets. The posts sit directly over the posts under the deck to carry the load.
@@insanitycarnival27 was there any concerns with attaching the ledger for the roof beams to the existing fascia of your roof.
@@guscabo3073 No concerns because I lagged them into the roof trussing which is super solid.
Awesome, am in the process of getting my plans approved by my County, I will be using the same design due to the cantilever on my deck. What’s the height of the beam?
What do you do with water that blows in?
You don't get much but mop it or use a towel
Did you just put post on top of existing deck or did you feed all the way through are you comfortable with the new structure on top of the old?
Post just on top directly over the support below to carry the load. I old structure is super solid so that made me me feel more comfortable. Been over a year and hasn't moved at all.

Do u have picture from the top ? Of the roof see how it looks 😊
Sorry no I dont.
A/C is on? Or from inside of house flowing?
I changed the original porch light fixture to a plug and ran the lights from there.
that is Top !
Is a permit required to attach it to the house?
I always recommend that you get a permit.
any notable drainage or water dmg issues around the bottom sill plate?
I added evestrough to keep water away from the sills. But yes there is some staining. Any suggestions?
Put SLIDESHOW in the description... disappointed to see its just snapshots and not BUILDING like the description says!
Sorry you wasted your time and the video of our project wasn't helpful to you.
