How To Build a Covered Patio | DIY Porch Part 1
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 พ.ย. 2016
- In this video I show you how I built a covered patio or awning on the side of my shop. I walk you through how to set the posts in concrete using concrete anchors and post brackets. How to set the header and all the rafters. Then how to lay roofing paper, OSB decking, and Onduvilla roofing shingles. In part two I will deck the underside of the awning, add lights, and trim out the underside as well as the boxes.
Big thank you to Onduline for sponsoring this project: goo.gl/7Q1HGG

Welcome to the official April Wilkerson TH-cam channel! I’m April and I’m the creator of Wilker Do’s. I am an obsessed DIYer and Woodworker. I'm not professional or have any training, so I just pick the project I want to tackle and figure it out step by step. On this channel you will find a variety of content like DIY home improvement, How-To’s, construction, design and more!

This woman is so motivating. There isn’t anything she won’t try. She explains everything even her mistakes!!
I was a professional roofer for many years. I was super impressed with how you took into account from which direction you could see the tiles from the ground (from your porch) and you overlapped them in such a way that the overlaps were not so visible. Not many people think about this aspect. Good work!
@@abigailarizmendi1261 😂
It's also the same overlap orientation as the rest of the roof, so just makes sense.
Lucky husband . Beautiful, smart and handy wife.
I love how thoroughly you explain every detail!
you are a rockstar! i love how you're not afraid of tackling a project for the first time!! what an inspiration! keep up the great work and videos!
: ) Thank you, I'm hoping my courage doesn't one day bite me in the butt.

What Shad said...but don't loose the courage. Life is less fun when you worry more about failing than not doing. Just keep your safety gear working for you and you'll be OK. :-)
One thing I love about April she just go at it and don't stop. Awesome start to a great addition.
: ) Aw thank you Mike.
So proud of her & whomever loved her so much to teach her all of this! ❤Love learning on her channel. 👍😉❤
I know! Isn't that persistence? And she's ok & asks for a hand when she needs it. Humility. We need each other, not ego's. 👍You go, Gurl!
You have done an amazing job and a brave and courageous lady. Tackling what is basically a man’s job and not afraid of getting your hands dirty not to mention overcoming the challenges that must have arisen doing this job! Kudos to you!
Thank you for another great DIY video! Also thank you for listening to suggestions from those who have done similar projects. That's how we all learn to improve our product.
WOW...I swear girl, If I see you building whole house next; WOW. Keep up the good work. It's nice seeing women in the trades.
Great job April! I like the longer video and you managed to show a lot of the steps in detail which was great. 6 minutes a week just isn't enough.
That's good feedback. Nobody has commented on the longer format.

April we wouldn't mind even if you made these 30-40 min episodes! We love your work :)

We installed a covered patio and use it all the time. We are the only ones with a covered patio. Great place to sit, watch it rain, protect our equipment, keeps the sun out. An amazing addition to our home. Good job.
Amazing shingles. 👍👍👍. 2-1-2023
That is awesome! Yes, it makes the world of difference. Thanks for watching.
You are such an amazing person. Love watching you figure everything out so easily and correctly. You do great work.
Hello .. name Khaled Saad Al-Otaibi of Saudi Arabia .. I am one of your fans .. I have benefited a lot from you .. I wish you success ..
I like when you giggle with excitement when things work out. Great job on everything! Looks amazing!
Looks great! I work alone frequently and a couple hundred spent on a laser takes a lot of physical work out of decks. Control line helps with deck ledgers and finished decking height, ground height variances, and notch layouts all at once. Well done!
Good job, April who teach you all that super work, I wish I can do all that house build work n not wait somebody will do it! What a joy, I am proud of you. Im learning from you so much. GOD BLESS YOU.
You freakin rock April!!!! Ive done roofing and that's hard work so you should be proud of yourself. you did a awsome job. I love how you just use common sense (which is not very common these days), when you build things. The end result looks fabulous. keep up the good work.
: ) Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed the video.
Well done April. Maybe use some bracing timber and clamps when installing the posts but as you say, first time. Also, a quick and accurate way of measuring center to center of posts is to measure outside of post one to near side of post 2 at ground level.
Omg! Your amazing. I can't believe I just found your channel. New fan girl here!!! Girl power!!!
Great job! I work w/ a company who installs patio covers I was just curious and looked up theses videos and enjoyed this one!
I think this really came out nice. I am very impressed with those shingles. I am a luthier and I am going to be finishing up my own wood working shop next spring . I was going to use metal but after seeing yours I think I will check pricing of this type if it' comparable I think I'll try this instead.
Thanks April.
I can't imagine doing these projects you do, PLUS filming and editing afterward. What a nightmare. Thank you for all the work you put into this channel and I hope TH-cam pays you well!
Wow, you did an amazing job, and it looks great!
I cannot wait to see how you do the underside with decking, and lights!
Well done, April!
April, you are my Idol. You have inspired me.and I share your videos with my brother an my husband to show them how amazing you are.💐 🔨
You are an inspiration to me and my daughter. We love watching your videos together! Thank you!
: ) Thank you, that is great to hear.
Great determination , your choice of project , no problem , I wouldn't be surprised that you'll eventually start framing a house . Thank you .
Have a similar project in between house and garage. You confirmed my thoughts on how to level posts on my pronounced double sloped patio slab but only video I could find that explained the process and so straight forward. Thank you for making this video!
Looks great! I enjoy watching you work, and appreciate your explanations as you go. Thanks for sharing!
Looks good! For future reference, you should install the bottom drip edge first and then your underlayment (synthetic tar paper) next. The underlayment should overlap the drip edge so that any water that has gotten under the shingles will flow out and over the drip edge. With your installation the water will actually end up flowing under the drip edge and may even result in more damage to the decking than a roof without drip edge installed. So just like you overlapped the underlayment as you installed it up the slope of the roof, you should overlap the underlayment over the drip edge. On a side note, if you ever install drip edge on the ends (sides) of the slope then you would actually want to put it on top of the underlayment. Keep up the good work!
Did you catch the width between the post?
Awesome job and very easy to understand. I love your videos and can't wait to see the finished product 👍.
Yes...she has been doing this for a while. I would be hard for someone like myself to do job of this magnitude without some years of experience....Kudos!! I look to reaching this level one day!!
You have become one of my most watch channels in short time. Thank you April.
Thanks for watching! I sure appreciate it :)
Girl, you rocked it!!
Everytime I watch April, "I've never done this before." That's when we know we're in for something good.
I am so in love with your project I have watched so many videos intensipating my own project you have given me so much confident
All I can say is wow young lady you know what you doing I'm very impressed keep up the good work good video.
Great job. Looks awesome. Like the shingles.
brilliant work, you make it look so easy.
Thank you, it was kinda easy. The concept is easy but this one was a lot of hard work. I was very worn out at the end of every day on this one.
How many days does this video cover? This seems like a HUGE project.
Wait until you're almost 50 and doing these projects. By the time evening comes, I've had it! :)
You are not selfish . You share knowledge. Thats 👍 great. April
You go girl..So glad to see you take the initiative to try something new!!!! Great Job.
I'm very impressed! Soon I will be doing one of those jobs Thanks to you. I live in beautiful Cicero Il. I'm a big fan of your work Blessings:)
That looks awesome. Great work!
I'm a retired roofer, just got to say you made that look easy, what you did in 3 hours, I;ve seen people take longer lunch breaks, well done April.
This is inspiring for me as I am looking to change my tin awning to shingle awning. You have done a perfect and neat job, keep up the good work.
April, you never fail to amaze. Nothing is too big or too hard. I wonder what you will be doing in 5 years time? "Today I'm going to be building a 12 story office block and suspension bridge"
On ya mate.
Haha a suspension bridge probably won't ever be in my wheel house, but who knows!? ; )
April...I know. It's just a project with drawings, engineering, specifications, materials, inspectors and employees and I'm sure that bill baggins doesn't see anything impossible! Am I correct bill?
....13
I try to find the positives in life. April is a very smart lady and I'm sure could achieve many things. Just paying a compliment.
Funny, most of the time the people I dealt with staggered after their joints. Your work gets more amazing with every build. You tackle some big projects. As always I enjoy your work, thanks for taking the time to share it with us.

Great video, good clear narration, very informative and no annoying music. Well done and thank you.
Very, Very impressed with your video!! You covered everything perfectly! I will keep looking for all your videos!!
You go girl very impressive
Inspiring! I feel I can tackle this sort of project - with a little help from my husband. 😜
I loved this. Gives people insight on what some construction knowledge and initiative can do when you want to make renovations to your home!
I really like the look of those shingles! In a half decade when I'll probably be thinking of reroofing my house, I'll look into it.
you make it look so simple . . wish I am as skilled as you so I can make improvements on our house too . . Thank you for this video.
Thank you for the likes ☺️
Nicely done April, and great story telling.
High compliment from you Frank. ; ) Thank you.
April - What is:
a. total width
b. width between posts
Thnx
Hi Frank,
I also flow your Chanel as well
I appreciate your videos. You don't talk too much and there's some good stuff.
This is the BEST video for this project on TH-cam. This gal left out the blah blah blah crap that all the guys do, wasting your time talking about themselves. Leave it to a woman to simplify, no ‘ man speak’ here!😀 this project is an exact duplicate of what I plan to have installed, thank you so much! Very helpful!
You're an absolute beast! 💪
She’s a keeper, That’s definitely marriage quality!
Exactly, my wife can't even boil water.
@@virgingrandpa1920 But she able to do something else did not she ?
@@moefamous
If she was able to do that other stuff I think he would not be so quick and public to point out her other failings.
What a video. Clear and concise. Epitome of DIY how-to!
You killed it. I'm very proud of you. Very professionally done. HGTV you got a new star!
my goodness you are so amazing. greetings from MEXICO.
This was so good to see. Thank you
Hi cutie.mr.caribbean in nyc.which state u in ?
Beautiful colour matching to original house shingles !
Your videos is professionally planned , done and organised to design!
I have built a lot of projects, throughout my life from a house to a bridge that can take the weight of tri axel stone trucks . I must say as I watch your videos , they are top notch,thumbs up , also I like when you said I went with a 2x6 and I wish I would have used a 2x 8 hindsight, you 'D be surprised how that has happened to me. Great Work !
Awesome! You did a great job! I was hesitant to try to do something similar but I think I’ll try . Thank you for the video!
WOW, Your really cool very good job watched the whole job.
Very nice April. I love and also learn something new everytime i watch your videos. Keep up the good work.
Good job, looks great. I really like the look of those shingles. Looking forward to the next.
You are awesome. Great job.🖒😎
You have a lot of courage showing this on youtube. So many keyboard commandos out here with the shoulda wouldas.
Monday morning experts.
Only she's better than they are. They can Google, Copy & Paste. She can DO.
Yea god forbid someone who has been doing this stuff for a living chimes in to someone who is just reading a how to online and doing it themselves.

You did an awesome job!!! I am working in building a roof over my exsisting deck so this helps a whole lot!!!! THANK YOU!!
April,Thank you for making this video he’s very informative and you make it seem so easy and I are love the products that you were using on the roof
Looks good! Instead of measuring the overhang for each shingle in your starter course, you could speed things up by snapping a chalk line across the roof to represent the top of the shingle.
Barry Halls told me all about you...
+E. Lectricity - Barry is a liar.
Pat Fenis Yes, he's a special kind of nuts, isn't he?
E. Lectricity sdo
Lmao good advice and username right here
It looks awesome and I'm ten years old !!!!
I'm 64 and jealous of your skills ,well done.
I'm speechless. Not only are you beautiful, but your very talented. You know, I've got some of my guy buddies that couldn't do what you do. You also more importantly love what you're doing and creating. Great job and nice video. Thank you!
Amazing, April! You have inspired me big time :) Girls can do anything!
Erin Longfellow Hello como ba la vida
Thank you Erin. Of course, anybody can do anything if they have the motivation. : )
April...I like that "Motivation Sermon" you're preaching!...did you notice what I didn't say?
Why not men?
Congrats on 300 K subscribers.
:) Thank you. You've been with me for a long time now.
April Wilkerson You're welcome. I'm glad to hear you remember me from the beginning. That makes me feel good. You've got an awesome shop, lots of talent, and are a natural at making youtube videos.
I keep thinking that I will not be surprised with the next video, because I will be use to you doing thing that are amazing.
But each time, I think WOW, she makes that look easy & easy to follow, if someone wants to do it themselves.
You are a super cool woman 😎😍❤️
When I grow up, I want to be just like you, and I'm 57 ❤️
Love you April, keep up the good work!
Thanks for sharing all your simple ingenuity with us ❣️❣️👍
Well you make it look so simple 😉😂
God bless you and keep you strong and safe.
I'm going to pray for the confidence that I need to do this project just like you did!!!💞💞💞💞💖😍🥰💯👍
Remember to wear your safety glasses at all times. Nice work!
2:13 Satisfying 😍
You really make America greater again. Great videos, much better than most movies. Thanks.
Your amazing wow wish i had skills like that.
Looks really nice! I have never seen those kind of shingles before.
Sand Plastic tiles are not new, more newish really. There is a Russian company making them and an African company too, both of which are on youtube and you can watch the manufacturing techniques for them.
Lowe's carries a type of these.
They do? I was thinking the idea was a good one; going to have to look those up at the local store!
Alonzo Branson . the ones Lowe's has come in sheets, and are like corrugated greenhouse roofing, but are sold and made of what appears to be the same material. apparently the product has to be painted every few years, as it fades. I looked into it a few years back, and while I thought it was an interesting product, I did not think it would do well in our Northeast climate. Maybe in TX it does better.

Absolute Queen!! I would love to learn how to do this. Right now I'm trying to figure out where to start.
I just happened on your channel and I am obsessed. You are so my spirit animal.
BS"D
Amazing work, skill and talent 👍
you are truly amazing
You do great quality work April.You do a much better job than most men carpenters.
You Rock April! Way to get it done!
Omg you are so amazing 👍
It's seems weird that American DIYers just don't seem to have SDS hammer drills, in the UK if you do any DIY you need one, they are just necessary since our houses are make of brick.
Absolutely (I'm from the Netherlands) and when doing things around the house you absolutely need one
Interesting. I live in the US and have one, but nobody else I know has one. It is amazing how well they go through masonry.
And in Germany you need a hammer drill, too.
I've had one for 35 years, the only way to go!
+Foeke van Veenendaal Everybody builds with what's local and cheap. Where I'm living now, stones, clay, and sand are local and cheap. That's why a lot of the houses in the neighborhood have 5 foot thick walls made mostly of native stones with clay and sand mortar. The houses last 300 years instead of the 30 years you get with balloon framing.
Brilliant work and it looks great. Loved the bit of banter at the end!!!
So far it appears as tho what you've done so far was part of the original house. I really enjoy watching your videos
Great project, for part 2 jump into the pool!
Andrea's Workshop tomorrow
I cant believe HGTV hasnt found you yet
Bikerchic is nice
HGTV is too focused on buying homes or flipping homes. Not upgrades to existing or, I dont know, gardens. They really need to rename the channel.
Bikerchic you can make a drinking game out of hgtv. Every time someone says space. You drink. They never say room.
The Cynic "In today's news, alcohol poisoning has surpassed all other forms of death, combined, for the first time." -Your favorite news organization
The problem with going to TV, is that you would lose control of content. With youtube she can be in complete control, and work as hard as she wants. Wranglerstar has talked about this quite a bit. Creators often do youtube because like it and can control their journey, while also enjoying it at the same time.
Great job. A palm nailer works really well with those Simpson ties as well as many other projects.
Nice to see an informative video that doesn't have annoying background music. Thanks!
Great job. I would like to know how much it cost?
