How to build a backyard paver patio all by yourself!

Been checking a lot of videos and i liked yours very much.👍 thanks for all the inputs.

Did a fabulous job ….esp with the monetary savings!
Lovely patio

great video. I am inspired to try this myself.

Respect!

Took your time, devised a plan and left room to improvise.

Very good execution.

Good work! Well it be safe for heavy rain? it won't be washout?

Thanks so much for this video! We're watching and rewatching, trying to do our own. Trying to wrap my peabrain around the slope/level issue....i sort of get the attaching a shim to the level, but it looks like you attached it on the end, while my brain says it would have to be on the underside of the level to account for the slope. Can you give a bit more detail about the shims on the level during the rebar and the 2x4 screeding process?

Very informative...and great job‼️

Thank you for this thorough and informative video! Nice job

How long did this project take you?

Thanks so much for your effort in making this video. You have me amped to improve my yard

Great video, lots of work. How did you get rid of all the sod and dirt. Good job.

Lots of hard work
Great job!

You did a beautiful job….having said that though the yard needs work still…that is where I would have choked with the whole job and the cost …..I am glad I saw your video it does inspire me, one thing you have that I lost sometime ago…you are still hardheaded…if you want to do something you will do it…at this point in my life I have to analyze the whole job including things like landscaping, I have to figure out the total cost…it is time for me to plan my job and see if is doable….thank you for sharing….

Excellent Video! Thank You

Couldn't imagine calling moss a problem. Yeesh

VERY nice job! An ambitious project for a DIY and you nailed it. I know it’s 2 years later, but I bet every time you step outside you get a little feeling of satisfaction from that hard work paying off.

Just done my path the digging was a NIGHTMARE hard hard work

Thank you for sharing!!

I dont like how the beginning of the new patio doesn’t start properly aligned to the left side of the back door of the house.

Beautiful

Great job!

I dont think people appreicate what we all just watched.

This job doesnt look hard but i can assure you, it is. When he said he pulled roots all weekend, he literally did that. Hes free time for the entire week was spent cutting out huge ass roots and carrying them over to a pile....all weekend.

Then you have the lack of taking shortcuts. It would have saved him weeks if he didnt spend the time grading the dirt and solving a water problem. Also, the rebar with the sand....99% of DIYers are doing all that. Its the right thing to do but the majority of people are going to skip that and will likely cause a problem down the road.

Then you remember that not only did he do all this.....he filmed it all. Imagine youre in the middle of cutting out roots, sweating your ass off.....and you also have to worry about the camera angle.

Bravo dude. Mad respect from all the other Dads watching this from the recliner or toilet. We salute you!

Looks awesome I am currently renovating my backyard by myself and your video is helping me a lot thank you!

Amazing job

put your cut piece in the middle or at the door/ choice

Brilliant job well done sir.

Give us a 2 year update.

Only a half inch of sand?

that was Awesome! turned out great! cheers 🍻

Nice work! Great video as well

So when you create the slope with the strings do you fill the dirt to the string? I’m still so confused on how to level and create slope for drainage with the strings.

Awesome video and content. Thank you.

Good Job Man! I like the turn out of the finished patio!

Oh wow, that is an amazing patio! also, the video production, the illustrations, all of it is exceptionally done! I'm very amazed with it.

Very nice!!

Dude you did a great job… hard work for real I have years in this business. You did great

Well Done! Nice work! One question: How deep is form the surface after compactor work till the the top of the paver? Total depth = Sand depth+ paver base thickness + Paver thickness? Thank you.

Hi ,
What is the name of those black things exactly.
Thanks

What an amazing Job!!!
We would love to put pavers in our back yard and we just do not even know where to begin...

I applaud you, man.

I just reworked my lawn, and that was grueling. I have no experience and made some mistakes, but the process itself was rewarding.

Job very well done! I'm 70 now and thinking of this process instead of a concrete pour. I will do all of this myself. This will be for a side graveled driveway that is a pain in the A** to maytain. Weeds and all. Thanks for inspiring my brain.

kick ass result, well done

Awesome work. Thank you. You are helping me think to do it myself.

This is one of the best videos I've seen yet for pavers. I had some work done by professionals and they did a very poor job in less than a year my pavers were moving and access sand kept getting into my pool. Plus pavers started to separate from each othere. Terrible experience for the cost. I'm going to have to possibly get the mess up fixed because they are taking a while to get back to me.

This is a very good video.

Great job bro! Looks very tidious but I’m sure it was all worth it when the patio was done and you saved all that money! 🎉

Nice job. Now put up some shade sails to enjoy that space year round!!

I don’t think he added 4 inches of stone. I think he tamped the dirt then rolled fabric then added the black paver base pad

I want to do basically the same thing but on a smaller scale in front of my house. Thanks for being so detailed, this really gives me an idea of what I'm looking at

Best paver patio video I’ve seen yet. Nice job.
