Hillside Reinvented: Boulder Wall & Slope Stabilization
Excavation & Site Preparation
The slope in front of the home has been excavated and regraded, likely to manage erosion, improve drainage, or prepare for future hardscaping (e.g., stairs, retaining wall, or landscape features).
Heavy equipment (mini excavator) is on-site, actively used to move soil and place boulders, indicating active grading and retaining work.
Boulder Retaining Wall Installation
A natural boulder wall is being constructed at the base of the slope.
These large stones are being strategically placed to retain the hillside and prevent soil erosion.
This also creates a more usable flat space below and stabilizes the area near the house.
Rustic Integration with the Property
The natural boulder choice and the way the slope is shaped complement the rustic cabin-style home, helping the work blend with the environment.
