Check with your city, [building department ?] for any restrictions before you jet off to the home improvement center to buy supplies. Yes, I risk being a Debbie Downer with that suggestion, but its better to know the regulations before you start a project – – after all, they provide for the safety of you, your family and your property. Some folks come equipped with good common sense; but some need to be reminded about setbacks from flamable structures, etc.
Always a good reminder! Thanks Val!
