- Double brick wall and old footing
What we did
The existing double brick wall had failed along its run, so repairing sections would only have postponed the problem. The wall and its old footing were demolished and removed.
A new 4-foot footing went in first, then a 7-foot CMU block wall was built along roughly 700 linear feet, for long-term strength and a clean privacy wall finish.
Scope of work
- Demolition of the existing double brick wall
- Removal of the old footing
- New 4-foot footing
- 7-foot CMU block wall, approximately 700 linear feet
