This homeowner sought a raised patio that would afford better views of downtown Reno and provide a venue for entertaining.
The 15-foot diameter patio was built up using interlocking blocks and is surfaced with interlocking pavers. The same materials were used to construct a landing along the back of the house that connects to the patio.
Additional work included the addition of a lawn, irrigation and decorative rock. To improve the condition of existing soil, a double mix of humus soil was rototilled into the soil before the addition of sod.
