The Official Press Release

Real Outdoor Living $10,000 Backyard Oasis Contest Winner Announced

Huntsville Resident to Receive Complete Backyard Makeover

(Tyrone, GA) – Huntsville resident Annie Laura Smith was recently named the Grand Prize winner of the Real Outdoor Living Backyard Oasis Contest, entitling her to a complete backyard makeover worth up to $10,000.

The Backyard Oasis contest opened in early May 2009 and concluded on August 31, 2009. Homeowners throughout the Southeast were encouraged (via ads in Southern Living magazine and online) to enter to win a backyard makeover featuring a project or projects constructed using pressure-treated wood. Ms. Smith was chosen as the Grand Prize winner via random sweepstakes in early September. Additional first- and second-place winners received gift cards to the home improvement retailer of their choice.

Sean Lintow, Sr., owner of SLS Construction, was chosen by Real Outdoor Living as the builder for the project. Once on board, he visited Ms. Smith’s home to research opportunities and help define the scope of the project. Upon his recommendation, Ms. Smith’s old, outdated-looking deck – which spans the entire backside of her home – will be torn down and replaced with a stunning, two-story addition. Deck boards, railings, joists and ledger boards – all if it will be replaced with strong pressure-treated wood designed to withstand the elements.

“We’re going to install the decking on a 45-degree angle to improve the look of the deck and promote better drainage next to the home,” said Mr. Lintow. “This will add a sharper, cleaner look to her home and the finished product will look great!”
