Once upon a time,在那遥远(远离Toronto)的小山村,有一栋小木屋.一天,主人们决定在前后院里搭台子,铺砖子.工程从去年延续到今年.请看以下的纪念.如果看官们有高见,一定请留声.谢谢...

Good Job! -sadcaty(caty); 2010-9-23 (#6289312@0)

你把草地去了，扩driveway，不需要申请政府permit吗？ -blueseafog(海上的雾); 2010-9-23 (#6289470@0)

same question -foolzz(foolzz); 2010-9-23 (#6289505@0)
从图上邻居的路可以看出，sidewalk和riveway原来就有，LZ只是把通往家门的水泥路改铺成interlock的了，不是把草地去了扩driveway。 -shirly888(Shirly); 2010-9-23 (#6289528@0)

Actually, all of "水泥路" are added by owners/constructors. And most of people in my neighbourhood just use them as part of diveways. -atlantic_man(atlantic_man); 2010-9-23 (#6289547@0)

It all depends on your location/city, ratio of drivewy & front yard sizes, size of your garage, and number (side by side) of car(s) you want to park in. -atlantic_man(atlantic_man); 2010-9-23 {140} (#6289536@0)
By the way, that's way I use term of "Sidewalk" mainly (it means that as long as I have no car parked in it, it is just "Sidewalk" :) )
不用。住mississauga，我问过有关后院全铺砖和前院草地改花坛和铺砖。答复是：从节省能源的角度看，it's encouraged。但不排除每个城市有不同规定。 -copperbean(铜豌豆); 2010-9-23 (#6289546@0)

In my city, 40% of greens are necessary in front yard. -atlantic_man(atlantic_man); 2010-9-23 (#6289554@0)
多伦多肯定不行。当然，不排除很多人干了再说，“不知者无罪”嘛。再说，Building Permit 也要求的太严了一点。比如，按规定，“Build a garage, balcony or deck ” 需要申请许可，但我很少听说谁建deck申请的。 -shirly888(Shirly); 2010-9-23 {80} (#6289583@0)
google "When is a Building Permit required Toronto", one will see a full list.

水泥地面都是大家后做的(跟我们做"Sidewalk"一样).原带的只有沥青车道,车道旁都是草坪. -atlantic_man(atlantic_man); 2010-9-24 (#6290875@0)

只铺了"stone dusts"在"edgings"上,再放上些小的"鹅软石"在面上 -atlantic_man(atlantic_man); 2010-9-24 (#6290863@0)

Roughly, 1): Patio/Plateform: $1000, including pressure treated woods, nails, screws, hinges, etc, but excluding truck rental, tool purchses and "pricelees time :)" etc. -atlantic_man(atlantic_man); 2010-9-25 {167} (#6292504@0)
2): Sidewalk/Driveway & Patio: <=$3500, including Bricks, retaining wall blocks, 5/8" gravels, stone dusts, fabric filter clothes, edgings, and machine rentals etc...

你用料过于讲究。其实PT Wood很便宜的，但是那些铁件很贵，能不用就不用。那两根桩子可以直接灌地下，省不少水泥，纸筒，和锚固铁件。 -2841999(大力丸子); 2010-9-25 (#6292763@0)
Great job. Thanks. -torontoon(咕咚来了); 2010-9-27 (#6294504@0)
