You are so easy to listen too, you have motivated us & given us tons of ideas. Thank you …I look forward to watching more videos. We are in Canada. Not sure where you are but is it possible to get a video to you of our yard & pay for your ideas on how to put things together?
Check your local ordinances before planting bamboo straight into the ground. Some places require concrete borders so it does not spread as bamboo is extremely invasive.
We just bought a house and the bamboo has overgrown to the sidewalk near the water pipes. The previous owners didn’t check and it’s going to cost us $2500 to completely try remove it before we put in a fence. So your advice is truly spot on!
I know. It seems the modern world needs it super fast. I do have some slower pasted videos on the same subject . Please consider checking them out. Thank u for your comment and support 🙏
@@BackyardDesignGuy We finished our initial consult and now in the next step of adding pictures to our folder. I am looking forward to work with you directly.
All these folks have beautiful backyards. Can you do some ideas for someone in the city (like me) my patio is literally 50 square ft. It is concrete floor with cinderblock 6' fence on three sides. It is a perfect 50 square foot square? I enjoy your videos.
@@BackyardDesignGuy That would be great. I can send you pictures. It literally is a blank slate. all dark grey. It was a complete renovation so there is nothing except an indoor outdoor shelf unit that I had in a closet in my old condo......that I can get rid of. I am in Phlly.
I already had a designer, but I am also thinking of using you so I don't go with whatever is presented to me. Two minds are better. What will be the "hourly cost" or project cost for a 10X20 outdoor 4-season enclosed space? I live in the PNW and many ideas seem to be better suited for a warmer climate.. I have some videos and some photos
Hi Nathaniel, we are based in Portland Oregon so I am probably very close to u. Feel free to email me and we can have a quick chat about your project micah@paradiserestored.com
the whole concept of movie nights, the speakers, the lights...is very good -smashing idea... if you do not have house close by and around your property....I think that is very selfish to have constant parties, noise, gatherings of any kind and submit the other people around to that...what about the peace and quite that the other people enjoy...that is intrusion of their space and that is classified as a nuisance...
Please DO NOT use bamboo unless you live on 5 or 10 acres because it is very invasive and you might be sued when it pushes the neighbor’s fence over and overtakes their yard despite all attempts to contain it!
Just abandon these ideas, to design the garden like an outdoor living room! It's a space for fresh air and nature, at night to watch the stars. Candles, torches, lanterns, a beamer to project a movie: That's good for parties a few times a year, can be easily moved away afterwards. Keep your good old garden chairs, BBQ, large party tent and avoid building fixed structures instead. No way to change them afterwards, except demolish and build again.
I love this channel. Please do a show on small rental backyards using things you can remove with ease once your lease it up and you decide to move. Thank you.
This video has so many great ideas! I've been struggling with my dog digging up my flower beds. When you mentioned gravel I realized that would be a win/win for my flower beds and walk areas! Thanks so much!

While the total 3D design might be expensive to start off with, it is much cheaper than having to rip out what you built in step 1 because you forgot to plan for the utilities needed in step 2. Most DIY people don't know everything it takes to design and build a whole backyard and will tackle things in steps. When step 1 is the overall design, step 2 will be running the needed utilities like power, water, speaker wire, low voltage lighting, irrigation, drainage and correct slope of the yard. If your step 1 was pouring concrete and building a covered patio connected to the house and step 2 is building a firepit area further out in the yard then you won't be able to run power, water, lighting or sound out to the firepit area without busting up the concrete. In your car example, it would be more like step 1 paint the car, step 2 fix the rust.

Hello, thank you for sharing numerous fantastic ideas. As an architect and rendering expert, I'm well-versed in drafting and rendering. If you require any assistance in these areas, please feel free to reach out. Appreciate it!
Nice ideas. I’m excited to tear out my rotting 400 foot deck and replace it with same size concrete or concrete pavers and small cover. I’m not very talented in building things, but will have to figure it out and do it myself. My budget is $500.00 max, that may be a stretch. How much does things in your video cost?
Hello, just excited about doing something to my backyard and I like that you are thinking about different budgets...I live in Alabama...how can I get in touch with you?

I do wish that everyone “selling the idea” of having a fire pit in the backyard would also mention the laws regarding outdoor fire! Especially in the city!! People think that just because they sell it in the stores then it’s ok. But no! Safety rules should always be mentioned!! Or else you might find yourself with a fine $ or worse…
The laws regarding what is allowed for firepits or open fires differs vastly from city to city and even more from state to state and even differ in the same city depending on what time of year it is. It is impossible for someone to mention the laws regarding outdoor fire. I literally have no restrictions where I live. It is the responsibility of the person buying/building the firepit to know and follow the laws of their area, same as it is their responsibility to get a building permit and follow local building codes for their project.
great ideas, but the only thing I would say, if your staying on budget and want to save big on markups, best time to purchase outdoor patios, accessories, Materials, is definitely in August.
I like how you’re thinking about folks and their budget.
In all, you are a thoughtful person.
I appreciate this comment.

lol @ 30$ a truck load of gravel , probably 30$/ton would be more accurate
Check your local ordinances before planting bamboo straight into the ground. Some places require concrete borders so it does not spread as bamboo is extremely invasive.
This is a great point. Thanks for the reminder to the community. I have said that many times in my videos but it’s important to remember
We just bought a house and the bamboo has overgrown to the sidewalk near the water pipes. The previous owners didn’t check and it’s going to cost us $2500 to completely try remove it before we put in a fence. So your advice is truly spot on!
So many beautiful outdoor features! For me, I had trouble being able to take in the individual shots or videos before you moved onto the next one.

Bifacial solar panels are cheaper. You get 30% tax credit. Make your own electricity with plug in grid tie inverters.
Define "not a lot of money"
Budget ? Really ? Every one of these yards are well out of my " budget "

He forgot to mention gun shooting range
Please DO NOT use bamboo unless you live on 5 or 10 acres because it is very invasive and you might be sued when it pushes the neighbor’s fence over and overtakes their yard despite all attempts to contain it!
Or learn the tricks to contain it like using Bamboo Sheild under the ground surrounding your plants.
And also there is different kinds of bamboo. Clumping bamboo won’t spread.
If you live on 5 or 10 acres you probably don't need bamboo for privacy
Get out of here Karen

Smart ideas on a video idea. I’ll see what I can do
this is a great idea for all us renters
I’m not a renter but this does have me curious
The video was nice, but on a budget sounds like a stretch. You’re showing backyards that cost about 10-15% of the total cost of the home’s they’re on.
I hope you found something that inspired you 🤞
You don't have to go to N.Z. Countries like Ireland.I sure U.K.and Europe used Hot stones covered under ground for Centuries.
