Paths, Patios And Driveways - Mid Devon Paving - Video

Houston, Texas (PRWEB) June 06, 2014

For more than 30 years, Wood Crafters has been one of the premier home improvement companies in the Houston metropolitan area. Recently, it announced the introduction of new services for homeowners who wish to add patios or porches.

Outdoor features are very popular with homeowners, particularly in Houston, where the summers are hotter. Some residential clients like to expand the exteriors of their homes for outdoor dining, recreation, or relaxation, when the weather is more favorable. To this end, Wood Crafters provides a professional staff that advises potential customers on the best solution for their design and budget needs.

A construction external to the walls of the back of the house, patios are perfect for holding a barbecue party. Wood Crafters, in particular, can design and build covered patios, which includes roofed structures to serve as shades from the punishing rays of the sun. Customers may also opt for a patio that stays independent from the building, but still remains in the backyard.

Porches, which are extensions of the front of the house, can also be open or covered. The covered option, however, is popular because of the sun protection it provides, especially if house occupants are sitting for minutes and hours there, chatting and relaxing. Another popular option is the pergola, which is like a more elaborate porch. It acts like a pathway, so it is ideal for homeowners who have gardens or pools at the front of the premises.

Wood Crafters advises customers on the most cost-effective or affordable solution to their patio and porch addition needs. For instance, while using wood to build patios and porches is cheaper, it is nowhere as durable as concrete, brick or stone. Similarly, customers can go with a deck to protect trees, while patio is a great choice for customers who want to avoid as much maintenance as possible.

About WoodCrafters: Founded in 1981 by woodworking veteran Bill Bunch, Wood Crafters specializes in a variety of home improvement services for the Houston metropolitan area. Besides patios and porches, Wood Crafters oversee the construction of residential features like pergolas, docks, balconies, waterscapes, outdoor kitchens, pavements, and fireplaces. Notable clients include athletes from the Houston Astros, Houston Oilers, and Houston Texans. In addition to an excellent A+ rating from the Better Business Bureau, Wood Crafters has been featured on Extreme Makeover Home Edition, and it just recently celebrated its 33rd anniversary in business. The company is headquartered at 10010 Thurleigh A, Houston, Texas 77031. For more information or to request services, Wood Crafters can be contacted by dialing 713-433-6026.

Creative Spaces Open Closed Patios

Off-the-sidewalk patios just outside Buffalos city limits. Pints of Michigan wheat ale with mildly fruity aromas. Fading sunlit views of fairways set within a Frederick Law Olmsted-designed park.

And a name historically assigned to graveyards for criminals.

Call it jarring contrast; call it dark Irish humor. Either way, call it a night out at West Senecas Potters Field, whose corner tavern charm joins with its Cazenovia Park-side patios to offer one of the areas best clandestine summer draft and dining locales.

Planted just over the city line at the corner of Potters Road and Woodcrest Drive, the pub stands as a successful marriage between West Seneca and South Buffalo: the former provides the address, whereas the latter provides the alehouse ambiance. Neighborhood denizens can stroll up off nearby Tampa Drive or Tudor, pass mounted family crests and find rounds of Bud Light under a trio of mounted flat-screen TVs. City residents on Cushing and Tuscarora can walk into the barroom, order pints of Labatt and bask in classic South Buffalo interior decorating, with Timons 1975 Manhattan Cup championship twine just down the wall from a placard for the Blarney Castle Ladies Social Clubs 2014 Meat Raffle (in St. Agathas McGuire Hall).

But when the Western New York weather turns from brutal to beautiful, Potters Fields front and back patios add an indispensable exterior element to the bars built-in benefits.

Patrons can grab two-, four- or six-seat tables and sip domestic bottles or pints of Blue Moon ($5) while lounging in cargo shorts and strap sandals. They can enjoy the early evening breezes while engulfing sandwiches like the Miss Piggy ($8.99), a pretzel-rolled option with pulled pork, ham, bacon and cheddar, but without an operational defibrillator on the side. If customers so choose, they can simply sit under the patio speakers listening to Springsteen sermons and enjoying the view of Cazenovia Park Golf Course, the circa 1929 nine-hole expanse added to Olmsteds original vision and residing just across Potters Road.

Mays increasingly balmy weather gave me the chance to choose that last option when I made my first spring visit to Potters front patio on a recent Thursday night.

I found the last open table in the back corner, dipped in the shade. After I settled in with a pint of Bells Oberon Ale ($5) amid Springsteens echoing vocal on Glory Days, I watched customers on the full patio order steak sandwiches, stuffed hot banana peppers and pitchers of Sam Adams Summer Ale ($17) as golfers rolled bags toward Cazs 8th hole tee box. Sure, passing Hondas and unleashed Harleys occasionally interrupted the view, but the maple- and cottonwood-laden course was there, hosting foursomes under some of the first summery weather of the season as the bars relaxed clientele enjoyed the same sunlight.

But this sporadic conflict between traffic and Calloway-accommodating treasure harkens back to the locales misleading name. When a bar shares its moniker with a defined cemetery for paupers and swindlers, you would expect to find a dank, rye-soaked bar with the rosy character of Nicks from Its a Wonderful Life, serving hard drinks for men who want to get drunk fast. Thats not the case with Potters Field.

Instead, the tavern hosts a hospitable barroom with Irish-hued South Buffalo (and West Seneca) comfort. Its outdoor solace caters to relaxed dinners or reunion rounds of cinnamon whiskey and stout. Located a mere nine-iron shot from a city-set fairway, its more like the neighborhood courses clubhouse than ominous boneyard.

Potters Field has corner tavern charm with an alehouse ambiance

A Halifax city councillor wants the municipality to launch a pilot project to test turning Argyle Street into a shared space for pedestrians and vehicles.

The trial could pave the way for a permanent transformation of Argyle into a pedestrian-oriented street, including wider sidewalks on the same grade as the road, permanent outdoor patios, more lighting and benches.

Waye Mason, councillor for downtown Halifax, plans to put forward a motion at todays transportation standing committee requesting a municipal staff report on the proposed pilot project.

The trial would occur during the construction of the Nova Centre and would help regional council reach a decision on a future permanent shared street.

The Planning and Design Centre, a local non-profit group, organized a series of public meetings on improving the Argyle streetscape in 2012.

The application of the shared street concept on Argyle Street shifts the street design from a car-dominant space to a truly public realm that emphasizes pedestrian movement, pace and activities, said the report called Sharing the Possibilities on Argyle Street.

Whereas conventional streets employ a strict separation of pedestrian and vehicle space, shared streets aim to transform rights-of-way into public spaces that support and encourage more people activity while supporting a harmonious co-existence with vehicles.

The street would be temporarily closed to vehicular traffic on weekends.

Removable bollards would accommodate occasional street closures and provide quick access for emergency service vehicles.

Closing the street to cars would open up the space for entertainment, markets or other people-centred activities, the report said.

Watch above: smokers in Martensville and Warman may have to butt out, outside

SASKATOON Smokers will soon have new restrictions in two cities outside of Saskatoon where the communities are working together to regulate smoking outdoors.

The Saskatchewan government implemented the Tobacco Control Act in 2002 and updated it to include bans on smoking in enclosed public places, in cars with children under 16, around air intakes to public buildings and school grounds.

Municipalities have the option to implement their own bylaws beyond the minimum standard set by the province.

The cities of Warman and Martensville signed a memorandum of understanding on World No Tobacco Day, May 30, agreeing to work together to create a new bylaw which regulates smoking outdoors.

Chera Doell who opened the Greek Villa Restaurant and Lounge in Martensville nearly three years ago, said her customer base is established and shes worried about the repercussions of the potential bylaw.

About 80 per cent of our people are customers that smoke, said Doell.

Doell expressed her concerns to Martensville Mayor Kent Muench when the two sides met last week.

Were hoping to build some kind of consensus with them about what they think would be the best option for them moving forward, knowing that in the end, were hoping to get to a smoke free patio, said Muench.

Neither city has written the bylaw yet but both say banning smoking outdoors at city facilities, parks, playgrounds, sports fields and patios are all options being considered.
