Planter against structure #hardscape #Unilock
What happens here
The video begins by showcasing a partially constructed raised planter built directly against a house structure. The presenter highlights the importance of protecting the house's foundation from both the lateral pressure of the soil that will fill the planter and from potential moisture damage. He briefly points out the existing concrete blocks and discusses the future addition of soil, mulch, or stone, and plants within the planter area.
Goal: Understand the design and the necessity of structural and moisture protection for the adjacent house.
Tools and materials
- Mulch or Stone Unspecified — To top the soil in the planter for aesthetics and moisture retention
- Plants Unspecified — To be planted within the raised planter
- Soil Unspecified — To fill the raised planter
