New patio below lawn level

[gambo]

My (small) garden is quite uneven and lower close to the house and then goes up. Now I have a new patio slabs which replaced the old concrete ones and they are put in a way that they end up around 5-8cm below lawn level further from the house? What are my options to sort it out? Trying not to spend a fortune also don't want to remove it given I've already paid a lot for laying it.

Sounds like you need some edge beams around that part of the patio to separate the lawn from the path. It will also stop run off from the lawn getting onto the patio.

I've looked at a few and looks like a good option but how do I prevent water coming on patio?

You need to grout the joints tgat shoukd do it or if you do not want to do that the back the edging with a plastic sheet it to the soil top.
