Habitat for Humanity

Security (privacy) wall
Lafayette, LA

We are most impressed by Ron and his staff to design and build a quality VOBB wall for security of the neighborhood.

habitat for humanity 32 A great job!!! (VOBB blocks are for structure only. Stucco or some other coating will be applied to make the wall look "pretty".)

 

NOTE: VOBB block are for structure only. These block must have some covering to make the final project look pretty.

Most importantly, Ron went to other VOBB job sites before starting his. We think that while VOBB is simple, people need to pay attention to the mistakes made from prior jobs to prevent the same. Smart people learn from other people's mistakes.
