A long bank holiday obviously means helping friends landscape their garden! This typical new build setup, with it's tiny patio, random shed placement and steep lawn, got split into existing and new with a sleeper retaining wall framing a raised patio area. We managed to clear, build the wall, backfill ready for slabs, and lay concrete in 2.5 days. We included a new veg patch as well to utilise some of the space in front of the patio doors. The shed will be slid over in a few days so it's closer to the fence once it's gone off. Last day of the long weekend at home before jumping head first back into the 'big reno project'
