Is that your finished floor or screed?

That is screed. In a few weeks, light wood décor tiles will be laid on it.

Our outdoor facilities are now finished at least in the house area. Everything was done by ourselves. My son set the curbstones, we were able to buy gravel for the splash protection at a company in the next town, picked it up with a trailer and spread it, we paved together. We mostly got bushes cheaply through classified ads, some even as gifts, bamboo was dug up from our own hedge, I had to buy the photinia at the hardware store. Granite stones for the platform and the flower beds came from classified ads, and those for the path were given to us. We installed the chain-link fence and the small gate ourselves. A trailer full of topsoil will still be spread on the path outside the property today and grass sown. Worse was that our construction road was located in that area and the concrete recycling, which the main contractor had piled up, had to be removed at least partially. An excavator would have been great there ;). At least we got rid of it at the company in the neighboring town. In total, we moved, took away, got and spread about 15 tons of material. Overall, the whole thing cost us less than €1000. And we like it.

We are just about at the next milestone, underfloor heating and then the screed in 2 weeks.
However, for that we also had to plank and board everything up. And empty the house.
It was really unbelievably exhausting, but for now we have a forced break (yay!).

Downstairs it was so late that the picture is a bit dark ;)



I am still waiting for my wildlife protection hedge, it’s supposed to arrive this week. Oh, and the house still needs to be finished painting so that the old scaffolding can finally be removed.

But a lot is blooming here too and I’m happy about (almost) every insect (yes, not the tiger mosquitoes).

Well, I certainly don’t mean to offend you. But to “compete” with costs over €25,000 for the outdoor facilities, your example is not very suitable.

Back then, we calculated how much money we would have needed to do everything ourselves, and since we had neither the machines nor the appropriate equity prices, we had everything done …. On top of that, it would have taken us 6 years or so to do the same thing.

That’s why the whole thing largely depends on the property … ours slopes down 2 meters over 30 meters, the path to the front door alone is 15 m, etc. … That’s what makes it expensive. The neighbor diagonally opposite has an almost flat property with a north entrance. He saves a lot of paving, the filling to the street, and can do everything himself without many machines.

I didn't want to compare myself with anything.

Of course, you can't do everything yourself, and as you say, it depends on the property. Ours is quite flat; over 14 m it slopes about 15 cm.
But you can do quite a bit if you want.
With a sloped property, you can also have the basic work done and do the rest yourself.

I made the breakdown to show that you don't necessarily have to spend a high five-figure amount on outdoor facilities if you don't have it or want to spend the money on something else.
If someone wants to have it done, they should do so.

By the way, the path in front of our house is also 14 m long. For that, you need a mixer and a plate compactor. You can rent them.
We took about 8 weeks for it, but we didn't work on it every day.
