just bought a new home, and the backyard is fairly large, filled with gravel, excessive dirt, and it has a sloped wall.
We got a quote to remove the excessive dirt, level the yard and complete the trench.....that came up to 5k. so now our plan is to do itbourselves, but with guudance.
living in Az, we experienced the worst monsoon...so this was our emergency trench to prevent the rise of water to the house. It worked, and that was before we put a drain system in.
I'm looking for ideas to complete our yard. We have kids, amd I'd like two side yards, with a mini garden. please, all productive ideas are welcomed since this is a DIY type deal, due to our budget.
