What happens here

Once the retaining wall is fully constructed, a skid steer with a bucket attachment is used to spread and level the remaining soil, creating a smooth transition from the wall to the surrounding landscape. The area is graded to ensure water flows away from the house and wall toward the street, preventing future erosion or water pooling issues. The entire job site is cleaned, removing any leftover materials, tools, and debris, leaving a tidy and functional outdoor space.

Goal: The final step involves grading the surrounding soil to match the new retaining wall, ensuring proper drainage, and clearing the site of any remaining debris.
