A keystone block retaining wall can be a great landscaping feature in your place. They're a good way to flatten off an area in your yard, to create some useful space or make a raised garden - and they're pretty easy to build yourself.
But it's always best to check with your local council before starting to see if your retaining wall needs to comply with any Unitary Plan or Resource Management Act Requirements

What did you do with the 50mm in front of the base that you accounted for? Looks like it was filled in?
@mitre10nz
@mitre10nz 3 года назад
Yes it was filled with scoria but you could use any free draining material. Base course, sand, scoria. ^Cam

Hey so I built a squat and bench rack for my weights. I set 2x2s into Home Depot 5 gallon buckets. At the bottom of the post I hammered in some nails on each side to tug on the Quikrete Mortar mix when it should be (Cement). Do you think the mortar will be fine and hold or would I have to redo the entire project? I have much to learn in life 🤦🏻‍♂️ lol. It’s all part of the process I guess.
@kbanghart
@kbanghart 4 года назад
How heavy is the concrete? And how strong are the 2x2s lol
@rocifier
@rocifier 3 года назад
mortar will hold ok for compression strength, but be careful if you are levering the 2x2s that are in it

Yes. You will need to add a drain coil 😊 ^Charlie

Hello. Got a question. Just how much would you recommend these projects for complete beginners? You see I have practically zero DIY experience but don't cherish the idea of not being the man that I am and not being able to do these things myself. You said these are "pretty easy to build yourself". Do you mean for the people who are skilled carpenters etc. or anyone who tries his best from scratch? Thanks.
@mitre10nz
@mitre10nz 4 года назад
Hey Alisher, with the right instructions, equipment and products (and some solid advice from our in-store team) a beginner could definitely give this a go ^Charlie

for a 3foot retaining wall do u need backfill? My contractort cut straight down on the small hill...place the blocks using pins and glue against the hill...no backfill or geograde
@MJ98.
@MJ98. 4 года назад
Bruce Lee you don’t need back phill if the soil and grading is stable and good, unless it’s over 5’ or so.
@mitre10nz
@mitre10nz 4 года назад
Yes, you would need to use a minimum of 300mm of scoria with a drain coil at the bottom and then backfill. ^Charlie

You didn’t show us how you ended the arg pipes? Where do the drain too?
@Redeyedye
@Redeyedye 3 года назад
Depends where the lowest water flow is.. sometimes they leave a block out and run in out from behind the wall. Offen water is not a major issue behind the walls.. Some walls stones come with a drain block too to help let the water out..

Why no weed barrier or landscape fabric?
@carltontaylor6500
@carltontaylor6500 4 года назад
You don’t need it. Especially on a wall like this. The weed fabric will clog over time eventually the hydrostatic pressure will either cause the stones to shift or blowout

Agreed, but if you were somewhat handy and had a work shed and tools you could. This is probably geared towards someone who is reasonably adept.
