Hi @Houseproject07,

Could you please confirm if the concrete step will simply act as a landing pad at the same level as your lawn or other surface in this area? If so, it’s much the same process as creating a small concrete slab, and you could certainly do that there, provided it’s at least 150mm thick. It could sit directly under the edge of the patio area to create a smooth transition down to the garden.

Alternatively, once you’ve finished your exterior surface, whether it’s lawn, paving, or gravel, you might like to use a few pavers bedded into the soil directly below the edge of the patio instead. That would form a simple, cost-effective step without the need for a full concrete pour.

If you can share a few more details about how and where you’d like to create this step, I’m sure the helpful members of the community will be able to offer more tailored suggestions. 

Here’s a handy guide on How to pour a concrete slab to get you started. 

Please let me know if you have any questions.
