We're back on the patio project. Progress is coming slow but steady. This patio is going to look great and I'm using every skill I have, and then some, putting it together.

The patio is about 15" above grade and I am considering whether to put a pipe behind the wall to the left or not. The patio will be pitched at about 1 1/2 %. I have never installed a drain pipe in a raised patio and am very worried about a hole in the geotextile around the pipe causing my patio to sink. Any members input would be appreciated.
