With lockdown looming in March 2020 it provided the perfect opportunity to devote the time to working on revamping our back garden. The garden slopes up from the house, so extending the patio area meant moving back earth and building a retaining wall. Also, after demolishing an old pond, I needed to build a flight of steps up to the top level as at our age (74) we needed to make life easier. The ideal DIY solution for the retaining wall was to use Marshalls wall blocks. The shape means you can create curves. The retaining lip at the back of each block means you can buy a strong wall without the need for mortar.
The steps are built with Marshalls Brindle blocks, usually used for driveways. The patio area has been doubled to 36m2. The multicoloured sandstone matches well with the wall blocks. We are pleased with the final result, particularly as I didn't have any help, because of lockdown, and with two replacement knees last year I needed easy solutions.
