This is a before picture of a of the deck it’s going to be removed in place that deck will be one car oversize garage with sunroom above and cantilever deck off the sunroom.

This home is located in Wellesley, this is the after picture of an oversize one car garage added on to the end of the house and above that we put a sunroom with a cantilever deck.

This picture shows the excavation is started the deck has been removed. Depth is 4’ below grade for the tooting and the foundation.

This picture shows the forms going in for the footing, notice the rebar. The 10” foundation sits on top of these footing and the foundation is also anchored to the existing foundation wall. (it is called pinning)

This picture shows the forms going up for the foundation wall, the footing has already been poured so these forms sit on top of the footing notice the rebar going in between the forms for the new foundation wall. Please note between those two guys there are two anchor bolts being placed with will be imbedded into the foundation for a Simpson Strong wall, which will be placed on the four corners of this garage.

Picture of the anchor bolts that are embedded into the foundation, about 24 are going into this foundation. Placed on the perimeter after the foundation is poured there inserted into the concrete while it is still wet and sticks up just enough to put the sill on.

This picture shows the foundation has been poured, the forms have been taken away anchor bolts inserted along with the Simpson Strong wall anchor bolts.

This picture shows the foundation has been backfilled the garage floor has been backfilled but also compacted. Wire mesh installed for the concrete floor and notice the pinning to the existing foundation of that opening you see is a cut into existing wall which will allow a door way from one garage to the other.

This picture shows the new garage concrete floor has been poured, the floor is actually about 3” higher in elevation in the rear of the garage which allows for water runoff towards the garage door.
