This is my yard! We did a lot more to it after the show, including adding a lawn behind the garage and turning the water feature into a planter. Great reviews video.

I am totally hating the pergola post in front of the window. That would bother me until the end of time. Make the pergola just a bit bigger so it doesn't have a post right in front of a window.

[@BlazedOutSushi]

Good points on improvement, I looked at all that gravel / pebbles and said to myself what a waste of opportunity to better the build. Love the floating bench idea and totally agree on the lounge area needed to be paved. The other thing with using so much timber in the design is what people don't think of..... timber deteriorates over time and is high maintenance - if using timber it is best to make sure is has cover from the outdoor elements. Do more build break downs like this - really enjoyed it!

[@BobbyKDesigns]

If I am seeing things correctly, they have their dining table and chairs on large pea gravel. I would hate my dining area to be on large pea gravel - your chairs and heels would be wobbly. I also don't like the fact that there is no grass! I loved your suggested alternative for a water feature.

[@AR-cw4he]

I was wondering if you have a front yard sitting/fire pit area in front of a luxury country home. Maybe to enjoy wine or coffee 😊

[@BobbyKDesigns]

Anything is possible with good design! I’d really have to see the house in the layout in order to create that kind of space.

[@barbiec4312]

I would have poured the concrete under the table and for a path near and under the couch. Where people are going to be walking/sitting. I’m not a fan of sitting to dine or walking on gravel to get to the couch. Fun show and it was a big improvement.

[@BobbyKDesigns]

I hear that. Amazing what they did in 2 days though.

[@kimberleyskeete6245]

Where I am the cost is high whether you pour concrete or buy pavers. I still believe good functional landscaping is a great investment though. Great tips!

[@BobbyKDesigns]

Thank you for watching and the comment

[@SLP4Life56]

Beautiful yard -- definitely perfect for gatherings! I'm on the hunt for some simple ways to dress up a bland yard or simple oasis. This is great inspiration!

I think they did a great job on this project! Simple, clean, and beautiful.

[@tunglai7174]

In contrast with the previous tranquil woodland garden

[@tierradesignsf]

I concur that water feature was weak the other thing that really hit me was the pérgola in front of the homeowners window…was a bit saddening for me.

[@BobbyKDesigns]

@Tierra Design. I liked the pergola design for sure. A bit bigger would have been nice but in 2 days it's a pretty phenomenal undertaking. Pretty amazing yard transformation. Thank you for the comment! :)

[@Miakitty4233]

Be mindful of your weather's behavior. I say this because I bought my home 1 year ago and found the wind here brings lots of dust and sand from local farms nearby. So placement of fences or privacy screens may tackle more then just security and privacy. So get to know your weather prior to your decision to makeover your yard.

[@myrnablond994]

U r great

[@BobbyKDesigns]

WOW! Thank you. I appreciate you watching!

[@cfelton1207]

I love this backyard, but I wonder about the stones under the dining and seating area. I would like to have some steps leading up to it and around, so I didn't have to step on stones.

[@BobbyKDesigns]

@Courtney F I would prefer pavers for this section. Less wobble opportunities. Thank you for the comment! I see you on other videos! :)

[@LaughingInTiny]

Trendy and contemporary, but doesn't work at all with the house. Also, just like all trends, it will be dated quickly. Very informative though...👍 Agree with literally everything you pointed out. These shows are kinda fun, but since the magic of editing is used either way, why don't they implement things properly and do the heavy lifting to make it right initially and then get the friends and family to help with the finishing elements over a weekend so that it still fits in a show. Great tips, off to watch more of your content. I'd love to see some before and afters with a great breakdown of the how and why. I'm looking for ideas for my brother's city backyard and binging videos. So far what I'm seeing are a ton of timelapses of lame deck builds and really flowery cottage style flower gardens for people who like high maintenance. There's definitely room for your style. Even better if you can incorporate eco and sustainable aspects. Thanks 👍

[@BobbyKDesigns]

@Andrea Bell thank you so much for the comment! Sounds like your brother is in good hands. Yes, there are lots of KZbin channels that show time-lapse of their work showing the before and after effect. Those are great videos and can give lots of ideas but the one thing they typically lack is the how and why. I run around 60 projects a year and will be showing some of them from design to finish throughout the year in the channel. When I break down the design I definitely cover the how and why so stay tuned for those. See you soon!

[@LaughingInTiny]

@@BobbyKDesigns actually if there were more great designs I'd love the time lapses, you can get a lot from them from a big picture pov. I like Atmoss Vert's channel because he does a video on each segment and then a timelapse of the entire project at the end as it's own video as well. It's a fantastic format because you know you can get a more in depth explanation of any of the things that appeal. I'm sure there are other good channels that blend modern GOOD design before and afters with content. I just haven't found them yet. And I've searched everything I can think of. So there aren't ENOUGH of them 😁 I'll be staying tuned!

[@sierramade8]

Good Use of a focal point with function At least 1 week if most is pre constructed but 3 to 4 is more realistic including irrigation. Planting design very ho hum. Cost 20K plus another 5-10k for a decent water feature and maybe firepit.

[@BobbyKDesigns]

@Sierramade1. Lots of this depends on how many laborers on the site, location, etc. Very good points you made! It seems like you are in the trades? Thank you for watching and the comment!

[@donjohnson1290]

First time viewer and I have an outdoor landscaping outfit. Yea I didn’t even notice their raised garden until you verbally said it was there. The problem that I see in 200+ photos I’ve looked at for ideas, People do some Accentuating Add Ons HOWEVER their Plants they put into the raised Cinderblocks bed are usually Horrendous and have no theme, have no accenting power, it all blended into to the backdrdb. $2500 ?! What in the world?! Lol Where do u get ur workers from in 2022? I mean Prepping renting, workers, Cement, Cinderblocks, Floating, Masonry work, STUCCO or Pdump truck full of wildly-mediocre blended, assortment of Rocks and so on. I. Currently am finishing up a 4 Level / Row of Cinderblocks w/ Capsstones etc, It’s going to have a Long Wooden Bench up front in the middle, w/ some Planter Housings for each end, maybe do a Water feature as Ed 1 of the planters. N RC I also had to pour Custom concrete pavers 4x2, put in White Rock gardens all around so I’ll see how the final Project(s) look….)Oh I’m having to do all by myself. Finding help is difficult to Say the least and So I just gave up on training new ppl ya know.)

[@BobbyKDesigns]

@Don Johnson. Thank you for watching and the comment! Oh, I do know the struggles of finding good help! I transitioned to being a GC about 5 years ago and OMG what a difference in my life! At some point, I will be coming out with a course to help those in the field get out and scale their business. I hope to see you again in the comments!

[@bryanj7063]

I agree, hideous water feature. Impractical and cheap looking. I’m curious why you didn’t mention this and I’ve always thought of this when watching these shows… they never install any irrigation !?? So this couple has to water every plant individually until they become established?

[@BobbyKDesigns]

@BryanJ Irrigation is a big miss. A drip system is pretty easy to install and would make a huge difference for the couple. With limited time I’m sure this came into account. Pretty incredible what they do in 2 days though. Thank you for watching and the well thought out comment!🤜🏻

[@RadCenter]

I didn't see a space for a grill, which seems kind of important. And there's no storage for any outdoor items under the pergola.

[@BobbyKDesigns]

@nancy Rutman those would definitely be some nice items to have! Great observation! Thank you for the comment and I look forward to hearing from you in future videos.❤️

[@sarahkrull4755]

The water feature in that backyard is awful. I would have left that out completely. I love your suggestion about putting a water wall near the garage instead of the pergola. Fun video, great tips, and giving props where they are due!

[@BobbyKDesigns]

[@ginadigildo6591]

we have a hugh yard that is pretty bad, we keep saying we want to fix it up ourselves, but then never get to it :( The other option is unaffordable for us

The bar is too think. It could double as a food station if we’re a bit wider.

[@donnahamilton253]

What do you think of the gravel where the table and chairs are? I think it would be difficult to slide the chair in or out. Plus I like to have bare feet in my yard frequently.

[@BobbyKDesigns]

@Donna Hamilton. The rocks can be a little uncomfortable. That is why I usually recommend pavers. So many color variations, textures, styles, and are comfortable for your feet. Well thought out comment! Keep them coming! Thank you for watching!

[@susanpeterson9558]

I didn't like that they positioned the pergola in front of a window. They could have moved it over about 15 to 18 inches to avoid this. Your right walking on rock barefoot is not comfortable.

[@janettehammons3966]

How about solar?

[@BobbyKDesigns]

There are some great options and they are much cheaper. If you are on a budget they can be a great alternative.

[@jcsftwre]

They did not put enough thought into the Pergola blocking one of the windows. All it would take is to make the Pergola wider or just move it over another 1 1/2 feet!

[@julianne089]

Imo the pergola is too small and oddly placed ie: one of the poles is right in front of one of the windows blocking the view from inside. And all and all everything seemed designed more for looks than function/ comfort. That’s my biggest downside here. I think good design does both and sacrifices neither... the other thing that kind of bothered me is that the style of the house didn’t match the style of the backyard. I’d have liked to see them tie in better, even though I know it’s tv show thing, but I hate for things to feel plopped into a space and that makes it feel alien rather than integrated...

[@BobbyKDesigns]

@julianne089. That is one of the difficult things about a 4 post pergola along the back of the house. It's bound to block a window! With this style home, I think this vibe can be pulled off but softening it a bit would probably go a long way. Maybe a patch of lawn vs. all rock, some more planters(colorful pots), and some better furniture. Overall, pretty phenomenal what was done in 2 days though. Thank you for watching and I greatly appreciate the comment!

Do you charge for the design work and estimating? As LA in residential design build am curious what others are doing and why.

[@BobbyKDesigns]

@Sierramade1 I do. I work my butt off on designs so I get paid for my time. If you're ever interested in learning how I've grown/scaled my business which may be of use to you I offer coaching/consulting sessions. Food for thought. Thank you for watching!

[@sierramade8]

Yes good me too. I try to convey that I don't do just design work as I have a crew to keep busy. But then some get design and estimate but are mad about costs. Even with discussions early on about range of costs. I don't know exactly until design is complete and I have run down the cost for estimate. Curious about how others manage. As a PLA I work hard at good design and great construction work. Sometimes discouraging

Consider pea gravel or decomposed granite opposed to concrete, wood or paver patios. Add a mix of small trees, shrubs and herbaceous plants. Buy them smaller and be patient

[@DS-ju2sq]

15:59 DIY people you MUST understand that there are odds for you to make a project of this level work from concept to construction and the dollars saved doing it, but it is not very likely. Yes, there are people who are incredibly gifted and can nail a project like this one on the first go, but thats not realistic for the rest of society. A project like this is way easier when you have a highly experienced person over your shoulder planning everything and telling you NOT what to do so you don't have the experience of failures in time and costs - design side and construction side. With that said, they showed a shot with about 13 workers @ 12 hours each for 2 days = 312 hours. Depending where you live, what market that can average between $25-45 per hour. At $45.00 per hour that's $14,040.00 JUST FOR LABOR raw without any mark up from insurance and overhead that must be calculated on top of the base the 14k. Then entire project I would not build for under 40k. I've built 36" x 12" x 30' planters with footings and green screens for $30k+ that took 5 days with 4 crew. Tips: ***Avoid pit falls of soil removal*** Another HUGE expense when demoing is the type of soil you have, where it gets moved, how it gets moved, and or disposed of and how much that expense ends up being if you have to haul and pay fees for disposal. Example: you plan to demo say 5 tons of soil, but it ends up being 10-15 tons because right beneath the surface you get 2" and 3" or greater of rock. It happens, and trust me, when you are on the contracting side (or DIY side) you had better put in an 'allowance' for demo for unseen sub surfaces or at least budget additional costs for unexpected soil removal. ***Software*** Want to DIY a backyard project similar or larger than the above project, pay a couple hundred dollars for a bidding software for landscaping, learn it and use it. I know, it takes time, but why wouldn't you want to spend $300 and the time to learn it to possibly save 1,0000.00's of dollars AND creating a realistic budget? Imagine getting into a DIY of 30k+ and realizing you need $10,000 or 20k more. Right. Keep up the great insight Bobby! I like how you are not afraid to say it how it is. I'd like to add, please repeat or animate major fails people do not consider. Example you mentioned was permitting. I would hammer that advice you gave on that fail alone a few times and highlight the crap out of it. So so sooooooo many people have no clue what setbacks and limitations on structural heights their local implementation agencies require. Including maybe giving a quick bullet of what the steps may be and on average how long it takes to pull the actual permit, the drawings required, fees etc. city county etc..
