Call the landscaper

Yeah... Not yet. There's still plenty to do before that happens. But from the street things are looking up.
All the steel plates are where they are supposed to be, but I need more screws - since I got the wrong ones shipped to me. (About one in three broke off before the self drilling and self tapping was complete.) After a little 'anger management' and discussion with the vendor and the manufacturer, it turns out they drop shipped light duty screws. The screws I paid for are being shipped as of yesterday. So I used enough of what I had to hang the steel in place. And it looks very cool!

After the walls are fully attached, we will be putting two inch gravel at the bottom between the edge of the concrete and the panels' bottom. Then backfill up to the top. But while we're waiting for the screws to arrive, it's time for low voltage lights along the bottom edges to help out with night time navigation.

I'll be glad when these are 100%.

Thank you for your sharing. The general advantage of steel landscaping is durability, and its strength.

    Six years ago this blog began when I began building a detached garage with a rooftop deck connected to our house deck. I did everything then, but now the blog will show some recent projects.
