Front Yard Garden

Front yard makeover – retaining wall project



Just completed this project a couple weeks ago – was done in two phases over a years time, with the retaining wall being last. Hope you enjoy!

  1. Did you fill the cinder blocks with rock or concrete? If you did, did you fill the whole wall or the ones with rebar? Thanks looks great

  2. One things for sure, that wall aint going nowhere with that type of base. Seems a little bit overkill though.

  3. Where do you find the local ordinances for this structure? I'm in PA and have been looking for building code for outside retaining wall.

  4. What about the hydrostatic pressure behind that nice, pretty, solid wall? I see some gravel in the picture at 3:59, but no drain away from the wall. Where does the water from the yard go once it hits down behind that wall?

  5. Nice job very clean work, I only have one little comment; You should have done 45°'s on the corners for the bluestone (my opinion).

  6. Yes Davide nice job but where is the touch of love you could salvage the wood Beam's marbled the fence and put a street light on the wood Beam
