I Built the Ultimate Open-Concept Patio for Entertaining

What happens here

Use a mini skid steer (Ditch Witch SK800) with a bucket attachment to efficiently remove old pavers, broken concrete, and debris from the patio area. Systematically scoop up the materials and transport them to a disposal area or a dumpster. Once the old patio surface is removed, use the skid steer to level and grade the soil, creating a stable and even foundation for the new paver installation. Manual shoveling and raking may be required for fine-tuning the grade and reaching tight spaces.

Goal: Remove old patio surfaces and grade the area for new construction.

Tools and materials

  • Rake — Spreading and leveling soil
  • Safety Gloves — Hand protection
  • Shovel — Manual removal of debris and fine grading

What they say

Hide

It looks like a classic DIY paving job. Concrete work where someone simply poured concrete to make a walkway. I won't say I hate it, but I'm not thrilled about it either . A four with a minus for effort.
