Outstanding! I did a search on this because I'm getting ready to do this same thing to our pool deck. Yours came out great....this was inspiring. Well done. And, thank you for taking the time to post.
Great work Sir. Stumbled upon your video while looking for diy videos on post wrapping. Your video was the first and only video I needed to watch. Keep up the great work of creating content. I’ll be following and watching. 👍
Good job with your patio. It looks amazing... One word of advice, a bit late but will help others is when you are framing up you 2x4's (4:32) , you need to have them at the corners vs the center. Like that, when you put the cement board on it, you can secure the edges to the 2x4's. You use the same amount of material and this will help stiffen the cement board and will help from the structure flexing and the mortar cracking/breaking off. You always want your base as sturdy as possible to prevent cracking and eventually stones falling off. Other than that, it looks awesome!
Thank you for posting this comment, I was wondering that exact same thing.
That's solid advice. I wish I would have done that. Thanks for watching and sharing. :-)
@@myacrehouse3500 what do they mean above in laymen terms? I want to do this to my back porch posts since hard to find people to do such small jobs, but do want it to last.
@@beckygreer1426 he had 2x4 at the center between the corners of columns. he had a total of 4 in the middle of each side.... move those to the corners you use the same wood and your backer board will have wood to drill into at each corner (better than in the middle) which will help with movement (expansion and contractions) which results in a weak spot and later cracking and tiles falling off....
@@operationhotshotinc.6887 ok. I get it. thank you for explaining
Wow, great video tutorial! Beautiful results and an awesome home.
This video has everything. Cool dance moves, food reviews and most importantly, good diy info
Man the stone work on the columns looks awesome. Great job
Fantastic job on the stone work and making the video informative and fun to watch. Kudo's !
Good job. You are living the good life. God Bless you and the family.
Amazing video! Definitely gave me the confidence and knowledge to do this on my patio beam!
Great job! Looks amazing! Thank you for the inspiration.
Thank you for sharing. Absolutely beautiful work and effort!
This was wonderful ... Nice job and, I like the how you painted the tops white and they're flat so you can hold a beer or some other cocktail .... That taco looked delicious, too.
Good job bro! I just got my house and I’m definitely going to give this one a try thanks for the video!
You did a very nice job! You inspired me to do some for my pergola ! Muchas gracias
Wow that came out beautiful!! I hope you make more videos in the future!
Loving this channel, good vibes, great DIY projects
Nice stuff man and beautiful home you got all the views and the land. Good luck!
Turn out FANTASTIC!
Planning similar projects, doing some research.
Couple of questions:
1. Why didn’t you put weep holes in your masonry ? How the water will be escaping that porous stone?
2. Why didn’t you put membrane on top of cement board? Like in the shower stall or when cladding houses or building outdoor kitchen before facing with stones.
3. Why did you secured 2x4 in the center. Wouldn’t corners make more sense for install of cement board?
Thank you in advance to anybody who can answer those questions. I never did any stone work so am a tad apprehensive not to mess up 😂
One word : FANTASTIC
Que bueno que nos pone todos los pasos a seguir nos está ayudando bastante
It’s super nice. Thanks for the ideas
Looks great, I'm about to start wrapping my balcony posts tomorrow.
Wow you did a great job brother! You're very handy. Keep the content coming. Now I'm inspired.
Absolutely lovely!!! 😍. A million likes from me!
Great video and your work looks amazing! Thanks!
Great video and you did an awesome job!!! I’m going to be doing this on my front deck which is elevated with posts underneath. I made a hosta garden down there but it just has the straight posts and needs some extra pizzazz. Thanks for sharing your techniques.
Thanks for this dude and taking the time....looks epic 🙌 👌
Great job! Very inspiring. I'm building a pergola on stamped concrete, and your video is just what I need to make the post covers and give that "WOW" factor.
Did you ever finish your pergola, i am in the process of building my gazebo also on stamped concrete and looking for more ideas
@@MrLIFEISTOOSHORT I competed the stamped concrete, I used Mayan cobble stone for the stamp, the color is U26 Lanon Stone with R14 Walnut release. I’ve received so many compliments. For this year because it took so long to run the gas line, I only had time to build the Grill Gazebo by Backyard Discovery. Next year April 2023, I plan to build the Cordova Gazebo which will be the perfect match. That’s when the post stone covers will add to the look of my Tuscan style backyard. I’m so excited. I can’t hardly wait to it’s completed.
That came out great! Nice job!
Yo. Brother man. Awesome job. I live when you say that stones remind you of your childhood. Mike from Mauritius🇲🇺 Island.

Great job thanks for the info
I replace my 4 x 4 post that was holding up my carport with 6 x 6 posts I think putting some rock on that it’s gonna look great I appreciate the information you do very good work
I have 4 x4 posts on front porch. 2 dry tall posts hold end of the roof above entrance. How to replace them with 6x6? Thank you for your advice. Then I would do the same as this video.
That stone work looks so well done, you do have a lot of patience Rolo, you got it from your Dad! 😂💕💕🤗👒
I really really enjoy you video thank you

Great video thanks 🙏🏻
Great job!!!! Thank you
Quedo con madre!!!
Beautiful
Outstanding
Beautiful bro
I enjoyed your vid mucho. I'm thinking of building a simular patio overhang and thought I would dress up the posts as you have done. The only thing I would do differently is inset the posts a little more from the edge of the cement slab. Great job!
Yup typically your stone should be flush with slab but to each there own !
What Wes’s the okay base, 2x4’s?
Sorry what was size of base?
I like this!
great work bro
well done video congratulations
Great video friend
beautiful thanks for the detailed video, this is what i’m planning to do in the future.
My wife has a honey to do list for me to do and this project is on it. Thank you.
many thanks!
Dope video make more 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Great video!!! Thanks for all of the hard work putting it together!!! Just a couple of suggestions, however. The caps of the post should be pitched away from the post slightly. I they are flat the way that you installed them, the water will collect on top and some if not all of it will run down inside the structure and cause warping and / or rotting. All horizontal surfaces should be pitched away from the structure. Was that fiberglass mesh that you put over the cement board? Other than that, looks great!
Awesome , it's a wrap
very very nice..
Nice job
Looks super well done , what’s next 👍☘️
Very very nice bro
I think you did a great job. Thank you, I am going to do my three columns out back as well. Thanks
My favorite part 9:41 because I tell my wife the same thing 🤣
Very nice job ,but I think a little slope on top would be a good idea to not retain water when rains
Hi -- thanks for the tutorial! one question:
1) What type of mortar did you use? and did you use something different for grouting the lines?
2) Anything you would do differently? (getting ready to start this and hoping to mirror as closely as possible!
Thanks
Other than the fact that you really should be using pressure treated lumber, especially where it touches concrete. Those 2x4s absolutely are going to rot under there. Concrete leaches moisture constantly, especially a pad that gets wet like this one. I may have even left a small gap at the bottom between the concrete and the wood. Good guide though! Thx for taking the time to help out!
Would adding a layer of sealer to the wood keep it from rotting?
@@StallionFernando Even pressure treated lumber should be sealed.....so yes you should, and it will help, but you should always use either pressure treated lumber or a wood that is highly resistant to rot. Usually PTL is by far the cheapest option because exotic woods that are weather resistant are VERY pricey...
The construction concept is solid, but his fundamentals are missing. He definitely should be using pressure treated lumber, he has no drainage between the posts and the concrete, and he also has no drainage between the cladding and the concrete. He’s got no slope for the caps to drain water away from the column, so all that water will go straight down into the column and expedite that inevitable rot. It’s pretty on the outside, but he will be repairing this whole pergola pretty soon.
@@dibbspot hey is it possible for you to please go into detail as far as how you would include drainage between post and concrete and what you mean as far as him having no caps to drain water from the column. Thanks so much, hope you’re having a great day!
@@someguy9538 (It’s been 2 months so I don’t quite remember the video).
Most (if not all) building codes require a stand-off between post and concrete that it sits on. Without this, the water/moisture will wick from the concrete into the post and cause rot. So basically, the post should be floating about 1 inch above the concrete instead of sitting directly on it. Do a Google image search for Simpson ABU44 and you’ll see examples of how it should be. These bases do the job for us and saves us having to figure it out. You can get them in many different sizes (4x4, 6x6, 8x8 etc.) from your hardware store.
The same applies to the siding that he installed on the post. Even though they are composite and won’t deteriorate for a while, the fact that they are directly abutting the concrete means that any water that gets behind the post and the cladding will collect there. That’s unnecessary moisture building up on the already untreated wood. If he leaves a 1/4 inch gap for water to drain, it will help keep the moisture down.
As far as the caps, he just need a simple slope to drain the water away from the center of the posts toward the edges.
All of these sound really simple and stupid, but it makes a big difference between a 12 month structure and a 10+ year structure.
Hope I made sense with that simple explanation. If RUclips allowed attachments I’d draw it for u.
Columns came out nice .if you would go all the way to the top how many supports would you need
