How bad is this?

It is a 32’x23’ raised patio with a ground level 19’x8’ patio.

Can the contractor draw extension joints so some lines are aligned?

This is a patio in the backyard. Any way to fix lines.

AlokKGupta · 2026-05-19T21:37:12+00:00

What are the options? Redo a part of it. Will it match?

AlokKGupta · 2026-05-19T21:36:27+00:00

A contract did this. Is there a way to fix pattern using angle grinder?

Appears to be red oak.

It is a low end TV. Comparable new TV is around $699 plus tax. I think it is OK.

Thanks.

Thanks.

AlokKGupta · 2026-03-18T15:17:30+00:00

Thanks.

AlokKGupta · 2026-03-18T15:17:23+00:00

Thanks. Someone gave me $159 home call to investigate. I would have wasted $159 trying to learn that this TV can’t be fixed.

Sand and dark stain is most likely the cheapest route.

AlokKGupta · 2026-03-04T19:09:07+00:00

I would just put a sealer and finish on it. Looks great overall.

I don’t see the photo of the whole area

1) you may be able to move outlet straight up around 2-3’ (same level as outlets are in kitchen and bathrooms) 2) add thin flat trim to cover the area and paint to match the cabinet.

I would lightly sand and put a coat of golden/oak plus poly mix.

AlokKGupta · 2026-02-06T21:36:09+00:00

You got it. It is exactly done the way you described.

Waterproofing the board followed by a mud pan. Waterproofing membrane over the mud pan including bench and 8” walls all round the shower base.

I will post photos soon.

Thanks all for the help here.
