Sand Point Living

Shed supplier told us this week, it is finally ready to ship and set it for us. Because we wanted the shed out of the way from our future cottage building, we plan to put shed on the edge of the padding, where it has a bit slop.  Adding a 2" clean crush rock base seems the easiest and cheapest solution to create a leveled pad for the shed, and it will be good for drainage under the shed anyway. We used 5 yard rock and took us 3 hours to make it as flat, as compact as we can.                                    The driver told me the truck just made the max height limit when he crossed the bridge - the only way to get here if you don't want drive another extra hundred kilometers through another town. They used car jacks to make sure the shed is leveled on the ground after it's off the truck bed. It was a tedious process with a lot of back forth adjustment. It is well done at the e...

Well drilling company decided the exact location to be by the side of the entrance as we didn't had much choice, the code requires 65 feet away from our septic field, and this is the only spot above flood line within the property. This means we have to make more padding to give access to the drilling truck. Oh well, that's another 7 load fills needed, it added a couple thousands more to the cost.  We couldn't be happier when we saw the end result, as it creates a bit parking space on that side of road.
