Amazing project ❤

Stunning work! What an educated customer. Great partnership between the customer and Platinum Ponds & Landscaping.

Question did you line your wetland and intake with fabric and liner

Hello Ryan Im trying to comment in your formal pond It doesnt have that option

We have been thinking a lot more seriously about a rec pond.

How much did something like this run the customer

Geogrid cost you more than the Home Depot wall block you used and that’s not even the biggest issue, hope you pick up the phone when they call you back

Good work!!!

Geo grid systems are slow and labour intensive. Useless in todays world.

lol did you ever invested in a mic?

Geogrid needs to go deep into the soil. Not just a foot or two. The filter fabric should be going between grid layers, not continuous top to bottom. Retaining walls fail with the soil shearing at an angle from the base. That grid does not go past the failure plane, so if it wants to topple, it's just taking the grid with it without any resistance. Roughly, the grid should go back as deep as the wall is tall. The right way is to have an engineer design it. Shouldn't add more than about $600. That's cheap insurance.

Suggest using drain tile at the bottom of your crushed stone for water to have somewhere to go. Thanks..

Easy to work with stone like that. Looks good. How much did the client pay for all that stone? $$$$$

Short retainer wall on a slope

Please take an NCMA class guys. This wall is not correct. That is woven geotextile fabric NOT filter fabric. Even filter fabric should not be used as you are using it. It will not allow water to drain and should never be draped as you have it. It is only used on the top to keep soil out of #57 stone. This wall is over 4' and requires engineering. No engineer designed this. Geo grid minimum length ever to be used is 4' and that is not 4' long. This wall is also supporting those scary steps and the porch and its doubtful that was taken into account. That foundation should have mortar pushed in there and not expanding foam where rodents and water can just pass through. Its frustrating that someone needs to be a certified plumber to connect a sewer line, but anyone can do a retaining wall where children can walk next to and have no training whatsoever.

cant hear anything.... :(

This will fail also

Ryan I’m just wondering how you set your first row? Did you put in 6” of gravel then tamp prior to first row or did you set first row directly on native soil and build with a basic French drain system behind walls? I’m in process of doing my retainers walls in Colorado with Kansas limestone blocks that are 14”x18”x36” and want to make sure I don’t have problems with shifting later on down the road. Thanks nice work on that project, it looks fantastic!
