Extending our Existing Terrace and Balcony
Work Started 22nd June and completed in early August 2009

Our existing Front Porch
Designing and Building a large Extension to our First Floor Balcony and Extending our Front Porch into a large Spacious Shaded Terrace started off with some rough ideas that we both had. During the process we changed our minds many times or decided to add or change something. We had a lot of help from Meechai's family and especially from Lek (Meechai's sister) doing a lot of the work of contacting the builder, getting estimates and sending us lots of photo's of the situation before we start the project.

Although we spent many a morning enjoying our breakfast and morning coffee the porch was far too small for us to dine outside with the whole family, hence our plans for extending this space into a royal sized covered terrace and at the same time extending the first floor balcony into a huge sunbathing area.

In this photo you can see the arched area downstairs (front right) with directly above it the small balcony leading off the bedroom.
