I took a week off work to build this patio and am ready for the honest feedback (and roasting).

Size: 20×8
Location: New England
Cost: -1900 in materials

I bought the pavers off FB marketplace from a landscaping company that had extra (400sf, only needed 190sf) and am planning to repeat this eventually along the driveway.

There’s a French drain on the side of the building before the pavers. Still need to put the gutters and downspout on to finish. Def could have done better edging on that piece.

The patio area is almost entirely shaded by a huge maple tree behind the building in my neighbors yard (he just had an arborist trim it). It’s slightly pitched away from the building for run off but it’s also got a bit of a wave to it from my lazy sand leveling.

    Looks great. A little shade grass seed for the patches in the middle of the yard and you’ll have a perfect little spot.
