This is an awesome video. This is exactly what we got quotes for to be done by contractors/hardscapers and they all came back over $16k. Insane. For a 15ft patio pit area.
This video gives me confidence that we can do this ourselves!
Thanks Brittany, good luck!
Looks good. I’m thinking of doing something similar with mine, but perhaps using cobblestone instead. And after doing a couple of tiger projects, sheds, I agree, removing the grass is the hardest part. We’ll that and carrying the pavers from the store to truck, from truck to yard, then from yard to their final location. You’ve made a New subscriber out of me. Us average dads need to stick together
Thanks! And agreed haha
Well done! And enjoyed the humor in it as well! Thank you for sharing all the details and what you would have done differently, AND the cost breakdown!
Hey Carla, your welcome, glad you enjoyed it
This looks great! You strike me as the type of dad who has good taste in donuts and one wheeled vehicles
I've done that kind of work before at a rental property and in my own yard. It's back-breaking work! I like your channel. Subbed. See you on the Discord.
That's ace nice one 💯
I laughed and I learned. Thanks for the video, AD. This turned out great.
Thanks for the rave review Ariel, glad you enjoyed it
Woah, that turned out great!
Thanks!
True homeowner hard work! Thank you!
Thanks Stacey! Always trying to put some sweat equity into the house
This video was very clear. I enjoyed your voice over. You did a wonderful job with your fire pit and flagstone patio.
Thank you for the kind words Stay
About to start this project in my backyard. Great video!
Thanks Chris, good luck!
Doing some spice ups on my house, and you've convinced me to go "all out" and make a flagstone patio as well. Looks fantastic! Well edited video, love the drone shots and the great voice over. Keep it up, cant wait to see you blow up. New sub!
Hey Levi, thanks for the feedback! Glad it entertained and inspired, and I really appreciate the sub.
Cheers

Thanks Mr. Brian
@@AverageDadChannel You are very welcome Mr. Average Dad 😀
Awesome❤
Good Job
Thanks Darrell!
Nice😊
Thanks!
Wow your epic
epic comment.
Looks awesome. Why did you decide to not cement the bricks together?
Thanks MKA! Are you talking about the fire pit surround bricks? I went back later and made it a “smokeless” fire pit (also have a video on it) and wanted to be able to adjust or rework as needed. I about have it how I want now, so may use high temp construction adhesive between them this fall so they stay put.
@@AverageDadChannel Yeah - there is a split amongst folk about that and was just curious as to your thought process.
Average Dad, above average fire pit.
Above average comment, thanks Jared!
Hello what was the size of you circle from edge to edge in the center? Nice work!
The entire patio is 15 ft in diameter and the pit area is about 32" in diameter
thanks for watching!
where did you get your stones from?
Menards!
Is there a reason you didn't opt to put in a weed barrier?
Hey Mike, honestly I just didn’t think to add it at the time (somewhat followed Bro Build’s patio video and they didn’t use any). It probably would’ve been good to do, but very surprisingly in retrospect, after 12 months we haven’t had any weeds in the gaps. If I go back and put down polymeric sand this fall hopefully that will negate any concerns going forward.
What type of sand?
Hey Tyler, I just used generic construction sand and it has held up fine, almost no weeds still after 2 years
What type of Flagstone is this?
Hey Neil, I’m not positive as I bought it off fb marketplace, but I would guess it’s sandstone (I’m in the Midwest if that helps at all). It was all about 1.75 to 2” thick.
Where did you get that much flagstone for 100$?
Facebook marketplace, it was an exceptional deal but usually you can find people selling some that never carried through on a project or did a large project and had leftover
@@AverageDadChannel great idea, not sure why I didn’t think of that
How to secure the edge
It’s been working fine without a defined “edge” for us but I’ve seen others use brick pavers as a border
