Hello
I am thinking of cutting into the hill behind my house. The hill is about a metre from the back of the hose, and then rises steeply from there, it is very clostrophobic, the trees cause problems, as they hang over the gutters, and rats , possums, koalas, foxes can jump from the hill onto the roof directly from the hill, causing more problems.
I have an engineer coming out on friday to give me some advise, I know I will need council approval etc.
My questions are.
1) has anyone here done this before, with an existing house in place.
2) How expensive per square metre are the cheapest structural retaining walls (Not wood) around 2 metres in height.
3) how expensive is it to cut and fill in semi rocky area, say an hourly rate.
regards Adam
