How to Build a Retaining Wall in 10 Days: A Timelapse Guide

In this video our team takes on building a 2 tiered wood retaining wall. Watch as we completely transform this side yard into a beautiful backdrop for new plants to grow and to hold the steep hillside. ▬ Contents of this video ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 0:00 - Demolition of existing wall 0:19 - Digging new post holes 0:40 - Setting new posts 1:13 - Concrete pour 1:53 - Installing the 2x12 boards 1:59 - adding drainage, waterproof membrane, and filter fabric 2:05 - Adding remaining 2x12 boards and drain rock 2:15- Backfilling walls with native soil 2:32- Adding redwood face boards and weed fabric 2:52- Planting, Irrigation, and mulch 3:57- End result We use our Ditch Witch mini skid steer to help us dig the holes on the lower wall. All the holes on the top wall were dug by hand. Pressure treated posts are used with rebar reinforced footings. We use Redwood 1x6 for the face of the walls, and a 2x6 cap on top. We used natural redwood stain at the end to protect the wood. This is our take on a basic retaining wall, with modern elements to give it more visual appeal.
