What's happened so far on the remodelling

So pretty much one Saturday a few weeks back, I woke up and decided to start on the backyard renovation. I decided to start with the most dangerous part, which was the stairs to the garage apartment. The basic problem with the stairs was that they were built out of none treated wood that was painted on all sides and also built on the wall of the garage without any flashing at all to keep water and leaves from getting in between the stringer and the garage wall.  Here are some pics of the problems (the Befores)

As you can see the stringer is in direct contact with the siding.  Also the existing siding for some reason appears to be pieced together. 








Since the stairs and porch were in really bad shape it only took me about an hour and a half to turn it into a pile of wood.
