To be fair, you should not go out and do a critical retaining wall that could have implications on the house settling if you arent 100% sure what you are doing. Practice on the customers might be ok, 1 if you are willing to go out and redo it, 2 if it doesn’t have any implications on structural issues.
Need to dig out further back behind the retaining wall or you wont be able to place the geogrid so it actually works the way it’s intended to. Id also bury the first block. If that’s in a freeze area im afraid that wall will give once ice starts expanding and pushing the dirt.
most of the time when we lay wall we pour a small footer just a form on the front and just float out the back but just saves ya so much time getting the first course down and also sometimes lay the first ones when its stiffens up a bit
Since when do just plop a retaining wall down on flat ground? You should dig a trench about a foot or 18 inches deep. Lay down 6 inches of gravel and compact. Then lay your blocks.
How i get a perfect 1st course. Use 2x4s and string line to screed the gravel level, then compact, then screed level again. Now you have a hard level base to set the first course on. Oh god and you guys put the first course on upside down. x) i hope you incorporated drain pipe and geo fabric.
Yeah, you got 100 different things going on at the same time so that’s understandable, but shouldn’t the foreman building the wall no exactly how to build a wall without the owner telling him exactly what to do. What am I missing?
For some reason I can only respond to already messages but thank you for saying something because I was wanting to listen because I'd like to learn but that sound what was that and why because that sound is loud and for what I'd like to have finished because this cat puts out fun videos to watch and that sound didn't allow me to Finnish this video
With that shit dirt you have to go deeper till you find better base then 2 feet gravel compacted in 2 to 3 in lifts come on that wall won't last 2 years

It happens to the best of us bro. Good job admitting your fault and not blaming on your guys.

I know who I’m not calling to install my wall haha 😂

We didn't really have a foreman on this job, new crew that all started working around the same time.
Don’t you have to put blocks in the ground first to hold the weight?
Don’t forget to smile!
lol at least you have a good attitude about it and you know we’ve all been there haha shit happens
Why are you using what looks to be dense grade? Open grade base is built to last
Having to explain how leveling a new wall build works isn't ideal. I guess everyone starts somewhere.
Question everything, even if you know you will get shouted at. Better to know than be made to look like an idiot.
Random question man, I’ll give you a sub anyways but how do you get your haircut? I want mine how yours is
skin tapered fade to a 4-5 up top
Not one who could help to put you right
Could have just cut the lip off. Chisel or saw doesn't matter it's not helping hold it in the ground. No way I'd reset all of those.
Man your working must like that beeping sound. standing there talking and the whole time hes got that thing beeping. that was fucking annooying

Must be these guys first wall u had to tell them literally how to do everything. Then 2 videos later the wall moves wtf
Yea the lip doesnt go on top
What I’ve learned is never trust a contractor who doesn’t do the work himself
Who goes out and gets the next job ready?

I hate to be that guy but you guys have no clue what you’re doing
