Flagstone Patio and Stone Steps on a Sloped Lot

Project Overview

A sloped backyard is turned into usable space with a flagstone patio, a fire pit area and stone steps leading down the grade.

On sloped sites, drainage and step layout need to be solved together so water does not run across the patio or undermine the steps.
