Love how you went the poured in place walls versus block, much stronger. Like how clean you have kept the job site, form work can be really messy. Walls look clean, straight and plumb. Great job! The homeowner should be very happy with your work.

Stone walls or gabions would have looked nicer than concrete yet buying the stones would make them expensive. I have a couple of gabions in my garden and I used river-stones for the exterior only because they are expensive and inside I used even some old concrete scraps that were around and whatever stone was sitting close by.
@@vivalaleta Not everyone but sometimes if a person wants a certain type of stone and it is not on his property, then yes. In my case, I do have lots of stones but the river stones were nicer so I wanted my gabions with that look.

@@RJ-rn3uv thank you so much 🙏
Except nothing tying the walls into the back fill. They’ll push out eventually.
@@Pterodactyl-kn3venot likely. footing is huge with a keyhole with lots of rebar and wall is 8” thick
I would have loved to see the complete make over, but so far it looks great!
Coming soon! Thank you for watching
Beautiful work! I like the finished look of your walls more than All Access that shows the form lines. Great work!
Epic! Those walls aren't going anywhere!
looking forward on the next upload
@@0grid-ph me too! Thank you for watching!
Nice work!
Thanks!
Amazing! What a transformation 🤩 Phase 2 is going to be 🔥❤🔥
@@michellespetner7316 thank you so much!!!
This is stunning! Thanks for sharing. We have a slope pretty close to this and the size as well, Could you share the cost for the Phase 1?
Also would it have been possible to monopour the walls with the footngs or would have bracing been too tough?
Bracing too tough for us, but maybe it is possible!
Only time I ever thought about becoming a contractor was after building retaining walls as part of a crew one Summer😊😊
It's still in your bones somewhere...help us on our next retaining wall project 😁
lot of work for a 3ft wall. its crazy this engineer went wild
walls are about 5', but yes lots of work, and agreed engineer went crazy lol
Well, the same amount of rain will impact this area so what water collection sites have been installed for roof collections?
All water diverts to the street at the moment. Once the plants are in, lots of that water will be captured by the plants 🙂
What type of plywood is that for the concrete retaining wall forms in the 4x8 sheets to get 1 smooth side? (What Material and thickness is 3/4ish?)
3/4" MDO plywood 4x8
You guys really did this one right. Im impressed. Im in the same market as a new construction GC/ developer. We should talk!
lets talk! contact us on our website terragardens.org
What is the company of the prefab shed/cottage on the top tier?
excellent
Thank you so much!
15:34 etcher or what was sprayed on the finished concrete steps?
acid wash to get certain finish. Not sure exactly the product
How much permit for this kind of scope of work?
cant remember exactly, but probably in the range of 10k, maybe more for engineering, permit fees etc
That's impressive work - good job guys! Almost seems too much for the location 🙂
Thanks a lot! And yes 😂 was a lot of work. It’ll look so much better once the plants go in!
Wooooooooooow nice
@@ForidaKhatunSetu thank you!

Amazing transformation and an entertaining watch. Still though, the homeowner will need two Sherpas and oxygen to reach the top.
😂😂😭 thank you
It would've looked great to really see the complete finish but great job
@@BWIL2515 thanks for watching! Hopefully phase 2 coming soon 🤞
Looks like the owner is going to need a Roomba style lawn mower.

Where is this project at? It looks like it’s the Bay Area in California.
@@Iamtherodlight1453. you are correct! Oakland
build a very solid house
@@constructi668 🗿🗿🗿
Nice but we're going to run out of sand for concrete in time. Use gabions...until we run out of stones.

@@teresamexico309 Does everyone have to buy stones these days?
@@vivalaleta Not everyone but sometimes if a person wants a certain type of stone and it is not on his property, then yes.
In my case, I do have lots of stones but the river stones were nicer so I wanted my gabions with that look.
I’m thinking Oakland?
@@Iamtherodlight1453. you are correct! 🫡
Over or under $400,000?
under 😃
And people complain about how much landscaping costs. Well now you know, no shortcuts on this job.
Only in California ! One good mudslide and it and the house are in the back neighbor living room !
@@brucecavey9759 😂 not likely
what was the $$amage on that one ?
@@grassabrutta 🤫🌟🌟🌟
Ha ha! (No) it’s a planned piece of engineering to reduce the risk of the potential landslip taking the house away!
やや高台だと 荷物の上げ 大変だよね 仕事は構わないがね。
80,000 USD

5 yrs and major cracks in concrete. To big of a hill for that little of support. Imo
Concrete terrace and stairs? Really? No real stone or tiles?
Nope 🙂↔️ that’s what the client wanted
@@terragardensco wow! 🤦♂️😂
Maybe stones and tiles were more expensive yet I would have liked stone better.
@@Heiko-c6mnot everyone like what you like, Karen, so chill out. Still looks great.
@@ZoneOne2150 fy 😂
wow the property owner must have a lot of cash to burn. $100k to fix his garden?
The have a dream in mind! It's definitely going to be amazing once its all done!
No way only $100k
Definitely lots of work!
That looks far more work than just 100k to me! (That would be an easy 250k in the U.K.)
Best place your time lapse camera (so the back perfectly faces the sun at midday) for optimum glare avoidance on all day filming.
He should of fixed the fences puttting all that money into the back yeard
no proper drainage at retaining walls, place is done for
😂
Too much concrete... Don't like it
👍
My question is, with that hot tub so far away from his house how is he gonna keep his neighbors out if it?
🤣 I don't know!
So inside the orange round ring that’s gonna be the hot tub? I thought it might’ve been a tree planter?
@@stevelinder7975 you can see the hot tub at the end of the video. Its embedded in the upper deck
