Good work there. Corner lots are usually a lot more valuable because of the possibility of another building with it's own private side access, so not an easy decision to block off the ready made gate so permanently, but the owner must know what they are doing.

@OdellCompleteConcrete 10 месяцев назад

Yea, that gate was relatively new but they didn’t get any use out of it so we built it out with block again.

Should you put in rebar vertically when you add the two row of blocks on the existing wall?

@petergilchrist2805 10 месяцев назад

last row bb rebar 4 in block grout as you go drill rebar on old wall

@OdellCompleteConcrete 10 месяцев назад

Yes it is recommended if the existing wall is solid grouted. If it’s not you should solid grout it and add rebar vertically. Wouldn’t hurt to throw a horizontal in as well.

I'm surprised that the city let you build higher than 6' in So Cal. I had a hard time trying to extend my perimeter block wall taller than 6. Always good stuff on your Chanel.

@RHEC1776 10 месяцев назад

They don't know if you don't tell them 😂😂. I got a permit for my 6ft fence and waited a month. Then, I extended it to another 2 blocks. 😅😅. My neighbor did the same thing

@RSST662 10 месяцев назад

That's about the front of a house . The backyard , the sides , and the front at that point is fair game . Plus , you can decide where the front is .

@weedwacker1716 10 месяцев назад

I had wondered about that.@@RSST662

@joeagrusa7970 10 месяцев назад

I know that most all people that have block walls @ 6' high or 12 course will not get a permit to go higher, but I felt that I needed to get a permit to go 2 courses higher than 6' because I didn't want anyone of my 3 neighbors changing their mind later and calling the city to have me tear it down at my expense. My inspector told my that i was the first person to get a permit passed to raise a 6' block wall in my So Cal city. It is very hard to do with the seismic conditions that we have here.@@RHEC1776

@brettbennetts4528 10 месяцев назад

@@RSST662 in California it’s all about the additional earthquake standards. Some local municipalities limit the fence height to 4 feet tall or permit needed. Rules are in place because someone else ruined it for rear of us. unlike this channel, homeowners made masonry walls without rebar. Seen this plenty.

Great job team 👏💕👍 That narrow of blow shouldn't be allowed on a wall that high though. Original owner/builder really cheaped out 🤦‍♂️ PS- whats the neck mask for keep neck getting sunburned?

Odell where those two walls are butted will never join ! was sure you would have cut some locks in the brick ...

@natej6671 10 месяцев назад

Why damp proof a wall that's exposed to moisture and water on both sides, at the top and ground water? Should have added weep holes. Since the bottom of the wall is acting as a retaining wall, those narrow blocks would be subject to collapsing over time. I would use a wider block for the base courses. The additional top two courses should be attached to the existing wall with rebar. Its a done deal now but something to keep in mind in the future.

@OdellCompleteConcrete 10 месяцев назад

Had to match existing block size. It’s only exposed to moisture on the back side, not the front.

@natej6671 10 месяцев назад

When you stucco the joints, what are you using to prevent cracking? I have a horizontal control joint and I also joined an existing wall but the stucco is cracking at the seams.

@jacobkline4741 8 месяцев назад

would you use 4x8 blocks for a privacy fence like this if it was starting from scratch and not matching what was there?

@OdellCompleteConcrete 8 месяцев назад

Probably 8x8x16s and some kind of decorative covering

@HousesandCars 10 месяцев назад

What about those 10 ficus trees which are way too close to each other and the wall? Looks like trouble.

@hifiandmtb 10 месяцев назад

Ficus & bamboo. This will end well...

@jacobbuckley8232 10 месяцев назад

Why didnt u use regular size blocks?

@OdellCompleteConcrete 10 месяцев назад

We had to match the same size block as the existing so the column blocks in the middle fit right

@eshamblazer 10 месяцев назад

why the narrow blocks? Just doesn't seem as sturdy.

@torchup 10 месяцев назад

Code required 6 foot high maximum property block walls go largely unenforced, well... until neighbors whine and complain because they get denied when trying to get permits to do same. Then there's often fines and sometimes demands for removal/adjust to code.

@matthewsorensen2147 10 месяцев назад

They could claim grandfather in if done before code was passed, that’s why they are painting it fast

@RSST662 10 месяцев назад

Pretty sure it's their backyard / side .

@RSST662 10 месяцев назад

That only applies to the front . Being a trailer , anything could be the front . The end could even be the front like success auto body from TPB - in which case , there's no max gate height .
