So I need to level out this space out before putting stepping stones in?
Want to place some simple stepping stones to go from back to front yard but the side of the house is sloping, I’m sure this was done for drainage reasons. But curious if I level it out will that be bad?
If you keep them close to the fence, maybe. I wouldn’t advise touching anything within a foot or two of the house.

I personally would not change the pitch. No one wants water in their basement. If you change the slope you could end up with puddles. I don’t have a side walkway either. I’d like to try those form and concrete squares. Maybe next year.

I would dig/level under each stepping stone so each is level, but otherwise leave the slope in place.

If it was sloped for drainage , why in the world would you make it level ??? Are you incapable of walking on a slope ?
