Hello everyone,
I need your expertise. Due to the new elevation of our new build, I have to retain neighboring properties that are higher. The required retaining height would be 1-1.5 m (3.3-5 feet).
My first choice was concrete retaining walls (L-shaped blocks), but I cannot install the footings pointing towards the neighbors, as this would significantly encroach on their land.
Do you have any ideas, tips, or alternatives for me?
Best regards

I remember there was the damaged retaining wall on the south side. You want to dig even deeper?? What I wanted and what has actually resulted for various reasons are two different things.
The fact is, I need to support about 140cm (55 inches) at the highest point.
Today I noticed that the small angle supports on the west side were installed with the angle facing toward our property… very annoying…

I have now installed bricks from EHL. Great quality.Did you choose the anthracite ones with exposed concrete on the inside?
And would you be willing to share how they compare price-wise?

@Yaso2.0 Have the heights changed?
For me, the height difference is only 80cm (31.5 inches).
Height of finished floor and terrace?
Yes, they have changed, among other things because my husband didn’t want a steep driveway.
The problem isn’t really the heights themselves, but the fact that I have to or want to manage the level difference without interfering with the neighboring areas.
