    Sometimes these types of videos make it seem like it's super easy to dig out the ground 4 inches. I like that you showed that not every yard is easy to dig. Some of us have to work with ground full of rocks!

    Really appreciate the extra work to make sure this thing looks good for a while and doesn't get overrun by weeds and grass in a year.
    So many people do quick and easy backyard jobs like this and everything becomes unlevel and a mess of weeds and grass after about a year or sometimes it takes just one summer of heavy rains to turn a backyard project into something that barely resembles what it once looked like.

      Coming from a landscaper, if it’s not too late, I highly recommend laying fabric between your stone and sand so your sand doesn’t settle into the stone over the years. I hope this helps and have fun!

    I really appreciate this video. I have a similar project in the near future. I’d like to make a suggestion for next time. All those planes tell me your folks liked the privacy. I saw many perennials in pots. I might have made a planting border along the deck & put the plants in the ground and put the walkway in beyond the border. A little less lawn to mow & some appealing landscaping that give privacy on the deck. Cheers!

    Good content, easily explained. When I bought my house it had identical pavers like you did in the end. I ended up redoing it because every time I walk, one foot on paver, another in between pavers. So I placed them in a straight line and removed the crack so it's brick-to-brick. Just needed to buy a dozen pavers more😊
