21.01.2022 We only just got the sleeper retaining wall back filled as it started to rain. I don’t build a lot of timber retaining walls but when I do it makes me realise the amount of energy used to produce all of the materials needed, compared to rock walls.

21.01.2022 Just finished this wall with antique French cast iron gate I modified to allow for easy wheelbarrow and other garden equipment access.

19.01.2022 The first section of a double sided wall I’ve just washed down, the next stage will be up to the house with a gap in between for a wrought iron gate. This wall was built slightly more rustic than I usually build, the owners wanted to see more natural faces of the rock.

18.01.2022 Four tons of stone delivered for an upcoming job.

17.01.2022 Just finished this grouted Helidon sandstone wall, I don’t do a lot of grouted walls but it does brighten up the entrance.

17.01.2022 Picked up the new apprentice today

16.01.2022 Earthworks and hardwood posts going in for a sleeper retaining wall.

16.01.2022 A small repair job this week, the owner didn’t want to spend a lot of money replacing these steps, so all that was done was to replace the old sleepers and adjust the risers so they were all the same height and a more manageable step.

14.01.2022 Something a bit different, the owners wanted a small flow through the river rock, just enough to create a subtle sound of trickling water. It’ll look great when it’s all planted out.

13.01.2022 Another job finished, crazy pave porphyry stone with Mary River pebbles. It will look great when the gardens are planted.

13.01.2022 The turf is finally down and after a morning watering it looks great.

10.01.2022 Before and after, another set of stone steps. The previous steps had a riser height of 200mm now they’re down to 175mm.

09.01.2022 A wheelbarrow for every occasion.

06.01.2022 A wall I rebuilt last year with the lights on.

04.01.2022 Splitting some beautiful Helidon sandstone with wedges and shims.

04.01.2022 A set of stone steps to make access to the back yard easier.

03.01.2022 A good way to start a new week.

02.01.2022 A small sandstone wall and edging to finish off the week
