Retaining Wall

We need a retaining wall built around the patio out back. So the brick layer were back again. These guys have been the best. We have been extremely pleased with all of their work. The built the bottom part with 12" block and then did a finish with matching brick with the house. Jim, the foreman on the job, negotiated with them to build me a planter box as well as bricking all 4 columns over there for $1,000. After they finish all of this, they will have used 19,000 bricks on the house.





After they finished the wall, they put a water sealant on the block that will be underground.



After they finished, there was leftover sealant and Rod had Tina paint it on the inside of the planter box.



They came back out today to try to brick the columns but the rain started so they could not finish. I will post pictures of the finished product when they get it complete.
