To put a roof on kennels or not.

[CRISIS]

i plan on framing the inside of my kennels with 2x6's. then laying down a few inches of sand to level out the ground as flat as possible so i can place 1x1 pavers in there. i reckon it will be easy to clean, and hard for them to dig out!

sb, those are very nice! im curious what the cost of lumber is vs the cost of cement paver.... that set up you posted may just be the way to go.

I bought enough for 2 decks and didn't skimp on lumber. All treated... 4x6's for the feet, 2x6's for the frame, 2x10's for the floor and 2x8's on the front and back to give it a finished off look. And coated deck screws to fasten everything as well as joist hangers to support the framing.

I spent a little over $800 for both. Thank your for the compliment.

I have done pavers for years. I only have one pen like that now. I don't like it. Holds too much piss and shit in the paver itself, no matter how much you clean and hosing it down creates a moisture underneath that never goes away. I think any time you can get your pen OFF THE GROUND in some fashion, then it is best.
