Dry Stone Walling - Retaining Wall Repair #1 

Love the running commentary. Sounds just like the internal ongoing thoughts I have and even songs I make up while enjoying myself walling.

knowledge bombs being dropped everywhere man ,thank you

Nothing like a man with skills. Good strong job, Darling! 🔥

Really enjoyed that good job explaing Josh looking forward to the next part 👍👍

Great work, you’re a perfectionist, thanks for sharing.

Really enjoy the tutorial I learnt a lot watching this video

I didn't realise how little I knew about 'dry-stone walling' until I watched this upload! Thank you Josh, for me, one of the best you have done in terms of tuition, just excellent. BTW, love the music at about 23 minutes!

What do you do when you blow your lower back out? This just happened to me. I stacked 3 tons of rocks then a medium sized rock took me out. Any tips for healing?

I just bought a house with this style wall and I don't have a clue nor the money to hire someone. You I believe you're going to be a life saver because I have to do the exact thing you're doing here!

Parabéns, meu amigo, com a graça de Deus 🙏 e Jesus Cristo.

Greetings from the US and thanks for a great tutorial and commentary. Love that you showed your work, just like the teacher asks for in math (maths) class. : ) About 10 years ago we hired a landscaper to install a couple of short retaining walls to terrace a slope and divert water away from the house. It looked great, compared to the old slope, but even then I could see that all the dry stacked rocks weren't 100% tight -- but I didn't know any better. I'm gearing up to do repairs to fix spots where the wall has sunk back against the slope. Question: by "hearting" do you mean sufficient rough rubble between the rocks and the native soil?

Josh, you've inspired me to repair my own dry stone retaining wall, which is buckling from roots too! Only problem is its on a slight slope from left to right. Should I start my base at the low end of the grade and work my way up, or start from the high end?

I don’t know how I found this but I’m glad I did. Most excellent

Beginner question: don't you need a geotextile or something to keep the dirt out of your wall?

Great video

Yesssssss

More tutorial videos please! 😄👍🏻

I generally have smoko just before starting and then don't start for a protracted time. 😂

So no snakes were or in that wall? That’s one of their fav spots were you not worried?

Would it look bad if you concreted the gaps?
