Last time we put one of thee together, took us hours! And this was in the Atlanta Summer, everyone was dying of heat! LOL. I have to nominate you guys for the BEST DIY! I diont know any other channel that does as much as you! HAHAHA! LIKE 18. 👍👍👍👍
Aww thank you!! We love to stay busy! Tori is actually buying a house this week with her hubby so we will not be running out of projects any time soon. ☺️
With four of us, it took a whole day to get through all the steps before installing the roof. The installation of the roof took about an hour and a half with lots of muscles and ladders!
The concrete slab is 4”. We used a ram set to secure the back wall to to the concrete. You can watch it here at 1 min and 30 sec into video: th-cam.com/video/NLngVcUqwYE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=-GoklspH9wAvS9F0
I will also include it in the video description: www.homedepot.com/p/Yardistry-12-ft-x-16-ft-Meridian-Cedar-Gazebo-with-weather-and-rust-resistant-Coffee-Brown-Aluminum-Roof-YM11915/314861014
No, it doesn’t. We placed sealant that came with the gazebo kit. There are also pieces that also go over the seams of the cracks that blocks the water from coming it. The rain comes down from the sides of the roof
I hate it when the boxes aren't marked Open Me First which usually has the paper instructions. Then the boxes should be labeled in the order to open such as 1 of 4, 2 of 4, 3..4.. it demonstrates the company actually designed the product and assembly to be as straight forward as possible. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸
These units require a building permit throughout the United States. (Residential Building Code) Your local Building and Safety department requires structural engineering information in order to approve the building permit but when you contact Yardistry they absolutely refuse to provide this information. That's right they refuse. If a building inspector ever sees this the owner will be fined and forced to remove the structure. Ask yourself what Yardistry is hiding, why won't they provide the structural engineering information so you can legally build their products in the US? There is a warning in the brochures and instructions "may require a permit". As a result Costco has no liability, you're on your own. And believe me Yardistry is well aware of this issue. They just don't care. No homeowners insurance will cover injury or damage resulting from an illegally constructed structure. Buyer beware.
It took two years to complete the course work necessary to obtain an Associate of Arts degree with a major I construction technology and code enforcement. I've spent the last three months arguing with the City Of Los Angeles building and safety department over whether or not this pavilion could be permitted and lost my appeal. Calls and emails back and forth with Yardistry trying to get them to release structural engineering information required for a building permit and they refused to help. Thankfully Costco has agreed to refund our money and pick up the three boxes. What a nightmare. I've found out that many cities have an exemption for the smaller 10X10 structures but still require an application to ensure the structure will be properly anchored. And go ahead and laugh if make you feel better.
@@25kmgb I am about to receive my 16x12 gazebo from Costco tomorrow and also saw online my city's permit law, and yes 10x10 and smaller isn't required but anything bigger than that, which this is, will need a permit. However, I just asked my contractor who did my backyard cement and he said they put these bigger gazebos up all the time and not once has he heard of an owner getting a permit. Welp, I'm just gonna yolo it too!
Appreciate the input. This is quite the blanket statement that's not always true depending on your local code. You should always check your local code first before making assumptions one way or the other. In our county in Ohio, gazebos are grouped in with accessory buildings, sheds and playhouses whereas a structure must have a floor area larger than 201 sqft to require a permit. This gazebo came in at 196 making it exempt 😃

Just saw an ad from Costco about this gazebo.
Great video on putting this together, will watch it again when mine arrives.
I hope you find this video helpful! Congrats on your gazebo! We love ours!
Does the rain drip through the screws in the roof? Any issues or complaints?

@@Gonzo-z6n No, this is the colors that it came in. No staining or painting required
Great video and install. Did you anchor it down?
Yes, we used a ram set!
Looks good. Does it come with a gutter?
No gutters
How thick is your concrete slab? Did you use expansion wedges for install?
The concrete slab is 4”. We used a ram set to secure the back wall to to the concrete. You can watch it here at 1 min and 30 sec into video: th-cam.com/video/NLngVcUqwYE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=-GoklspH9wAvS9F0
How is this anchored to the ground?
Yes, we used a ram set!
hey you guys!
can you post a link to it, i cant seem to find it, maybe its discontinued.
I will also include it in the video description: www.homedepot.com/p/Yardistry-12-ft-x-16-ft-Meridian-Cedar-Gazebo-with-weather-and-rust-resistant-Coffee-Brown-Aluminum-Roof-YM11915/314861014
Those diagonal beams aren't low enough to hit your head right?
Nope, not even Brandon who is 6’ 6”!
Hi,
How long was the assemble?
It took about 20-24 hours to build. The roof required 5 sets of hands and 4 ladders
Does the roof leak when it rains?
No, it doesn’t. We placed sealant that came with the gazebo kit. There are also pieces that also go over the seams of the cracks that blocks the water from coming it. The rain comes down from the sides of the roof
Does any have the instructions and wood measurements.
The instructions are included
How big is the cazebo?
12.1’ x 16.1’
But what fun is it opening all the boxes
Such fun 😅😂
About how long did it take to build? Great video by the way.
Thanks! It took about 20-24 hours to build. The roof required 5 sets of hands and 4 ladders
Did you guys anchor it to the cement?
Yes, we did!

I want one at my house. Can you come build me one?
Sure, be there in a jiffy 🤪
@@stunningmisadventures Great, thanks!! :)
Don't worry most of the instructions are always fiendishly hard to understand...trial and error is the best way..
Hahaha, yes! There were many trials and errors!

Laziness is the only reason why I’m not buying this…
You can also pay Costco to install it for you!
@@stunningmisadventures That’s true. Thanks!
