spin_dry Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 I’ve got a small three seasons room (12x15’) that I want to install a patio above. The area already has a walk out door from the upstairs master bedroom so it’s just wasted space at the moment. The area is covered with a basic, rubberized roof with 2x8 beams. It would be a great place for morning coffee and posting here. I’m thinking a small bistro table and chairs. Maybe a couple or lounge chairs. I’ve looked into some composite, snap together panels with leveling platforms. They seems expensive for what they are. But the advantage is lightweight and easy assembly over a wooden deck. I’m thinking about going composite for weight and ease of install. There’s a variety of companies out there. Any suggestion or experience with them?

With railings it’ll be over $1000. Fuck that. Buttered coffee is amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
