fire pit/entertaining area. A little hideaway from the hustle and bustle

- Materials:

bricks, render, tiles, gravel, grass,new fencing,plants, black mulch, fire pit.cement, paint

Drainage, tiles , tile glue, grout. all items where supplied by Bunnings

- Tools:

Laser level,tape measure, brick ties, cement mixer, trowels, shovels, small digger, grinder tile cutter outdoor tile trim

- Step 1:

tore down the existing walls and fencing, leveled ground and set up and bricked the retaining wall and added plumbing and drainage. Then we added the cement border to keep grass and gravel seperate. Then we rendered the retaining wall and laid tiles on the steps. Once that was all dry we painted the retaining wall and the gravel border. The fire pit was next then finally we hand laid the grass ( winter green ****) spread gravel then went plant shopping. Once this was all complete we were able to run the new fence down the property line.
