R Bergia Construction

The construction started last fall with the excavation for the footer of the wall and then the wall was built on top of that. The wall was built with approximately 500 versa lok blocks. Once the wall was built it was backfilled with gravel to provide the proper drainage and then top soil was brought in to finish the leveling of the area. Once that was done a railing made of stone pillares with built in lights with cedar rails that had aluminum/bronze balusters was added to complete the railing.
In the spring, after allowing the topsoil to settle over the winter, more top soil was brought in to put the finishing touches and leveling of the area, grass was planted and a wooden play/swingset was then erected with a 6x6 border and filled with mulch for my childrens safety. A paver patio approx 15x15 was also built by excavating an area and grading the area with gravel, base, and sand to level the area. The pavers were a design that includes a circle in the center and rectangle pavers around it and a concrete curb to finish the edges. The finishing touch was a stone firepit that was built into the pavers.
