The story

Step by step

New concrete strip footing poured for a front garden wall, next to an existing brick boundary wall — A new concrete footing is poured first.

01Before

Footing

A concrete strip footing was dug and poured. Every freestanding wall needs one; without it the wall will crack and lean as the ground moves.

02In progress

Wall and piers

The wall was built to height with a brick-on-edge coping, and the piers raised at each end.
