In this video, I’m going to DIY a patio paver deck along with landscaping and a fire pit. While going over the costs associated with doing it yourself verses hiring a professional contractor. Price breakdown for both.

People say "Happy wife, happy life" but I think it's more "Happy spouse, happy house". Great job on the project!

I’d be in heaven to have a hubby who is a DIYer! Great job!!! I think you should be very very proud of the job you did! Some wives don’t appreciate having a handy hubby. Just my 2 cents 🤷🏻‍♀️ and why isn’t she out there helping you? I’d like to know where you got those banana trees? They are huge!

Wonderful work! As a landscaping contractor, I see a lot of other peoples work. You do better than lot of the professionals I see around the Midwest! I would highly recommend renting a sod cutter to remove sod! It’s super cheap and does all of the hard work for you.

Man that looks amazing! Great job. I don’t understand how an HOA can regulate your backyard. But I’ve got the same problem. I should have made a YouTube video like you did. Brilliant! Anyways great job. Love your work
