Garage Blocks

Andy: Due to bad weather the bank behind the retaining wall of the garage has not held up as well as the builders would have liked. It's been a struggle to hold the earth back from knocking down the wall built so far. The idea is still to get as much of the retaining wall built as quickly possible and then tank with a waterproof membrane, drop in a perforated pipe / drain and infill with clean stone. Part of the problem is that the campsite owners have built up the ground levels against the original building so water is pushing down through made up ground and then pouring out at the original ground level and making things unstable. The middle section or earth has collapsed up against the wall so the plan is to lay pipe and stone at the two ends and then back fill these sections by using the collapsed earth in the middle (where the boards are in the picture below) and then lay the middle section of pipe, insert the membrane and join up with the two ends before backfilling with stone and earth.

The brown sheeting is the waterproof membrane
