Retaining Walls - Master Series- steps 1-4

What happens here

The project begins with a general overview of the site, which is a sloped area next to a residential building where a previous homeowner had started a retaining wall project but abandoned it. The first crucial step is to prepare the work area by clearing loose debris, grading the terrain to expose virgin soil, and establishing a safe and efficient workspace for heavy machinery and manual labor. A Kubota SVL 65-2 skid steer is used to move existing dirt and roughly level the ground.

Goal: Prepare the sloped work area by clearing debris and roughly grading to expose virgin soil, creating a safe workspace.
