Taylors Mistake Retaining Walls
The brief was to remove, dispose and replace two retaining walls below the house on a fairly steeply sloped section.
The upper retaining wall was just below the house and was replaced with a timber pole retaining wall. We added some timber steps from house level down to the retained grass area.
The lower damaged retaining wall was in a tricky spot right at the bottom of the section. We had to fashion a slide out of iron which went from the upper part of the section right down to the bottom. With this we transported materials down the slide rather than having to carry them down the steep grassed slope.
