Project Introduction and Site Overview

What happens here

The project begins with an introduction to a 'backyard flips' renovation, where the current state of a backyard is shown. A significant issue is a leaning retaining wall that was previously held up by an insufficient number of 2x4 wooden supports. The site features an existing house with a deck, a lower-level walkout basement entrance, and extensive earth surrounding the failing retaining wall. The context of the project is to address this structural instability and upgrade the entire backyard area.

Goal: Understand the scope of the backyard renovation and identify the existing structural problems.
