Not sure if this fits here, but what the heck... kind of a Before, During & After.
Backstory: home was built in 1990 based upon an exact copy of the plans for a home built in Montecito, CA in 1910 - updated, of course, to the current building codes etc.
But it's hard for me to believe the original had such a crappy back patio. This one was absolutely rotten, and the "roof" material was some kind of corrugated fiber board.
Anyways, we demo'd all the rotten wood, cracked bricks, concrete etc. When we began the rebuild we very strictly reproduced the finishes etc of the front and side patios. This included importing brick and Saltillo tile (among other materials) from Mexico. Those were some interesting challenges to say the least.
Pretty much everything above was rotten or broken. In addition, only the area in front of the doors was covered beyond a depth of 4 feet, so there was no place really for patio furniture. And we also didn't like that you exited the house onto stoops - - this also made the placement of patio furniture a problem, and didn't flow very well from inside to outside.
