Hello folks, first poster here. We are building a juniper retaining wall in our backyard to replace a crumbling lava rock "wall" and significant lawn level issues. Here is the question. I am having a hard time deciding what height to build the wall. Using the height at the back of the yard and leveling off that would mean bringing the height to 4 timbers and probably 13-15 yards of topsoil. The other option is to build the height to three timbers and then slope gently toward the wall, which doesn't sound that great. Should I just go for it and use 4 timbers and wrap my brain around wheel borrowing 15 yards of top soil? Please help!! DIY's, pro's......any thoughts would be appreciated!
to the site. Hope someone has some good ideas for you.
