Does anyone have an idea how I could best or most sensibly fence the boundary considering the slope? I was thinking of an 80cm (31.5 inches) double wire mesh fence in gray. We both like that, but with a new slope height of 80cm (31.5 inches), wouldn’t that be pointless? Higher would probably look like a prison wall because of the L-shaped concrete blocks.

My wife doesn’t want conifers?! :-(


Large earth embankment behind a concrete wall; excavator arm and house in the background.



Cross-section through terrain with terrace, L-shaped concrete blocks, fill material, garden area, and boundary line.

I would make the fence closer to 1 meter (3.3 feet) or 1.2 meters (4 feet) high and then plant the slope densely (which you probably plan to do anyway). The appearance will improve over time with the planting.

How do you make sure that no water runs onto the neighbor’s property?

Where should the fence go? On top or on the wall?

@ Water: The L-shaped concrete blocks are sealed. Everything else is connected to the drainage system. Otherwise, closely monitor the situation and take no action. There are no further requirements concerning the building permit / planning permission or the development plan.

The neighbor did the excavation themselves. The lower row is not mine.

@ Fence: So, a wall on top of the L-shaped concrete blocks.

How steep is the final section leading to the L-shaped retaining blocks at your place?

The slope towards the L-shaped blocks will be 80cm (31.5 inches).
