This Retaining wall system was built by Gappsi in Smithtown, NY. The front yard of this residence in Smithtown was overgrown with trees and was too steep for the homeowners to park on the existing driveway. Gappsi as a Retaining walls contractor supplier, redesigned the front yard in different levels, building a circular driveway, creating a flat area for cars to be parked on, and also eliminating the danger of backing out into the street while getting out of the driveway on their steep hill. If you are familiar with the Smithtown/Pines area, then you will know of the challenge of dealing with sloped properties. Gappsi masonry designers know the neighborhood and understand how to work in these challenging situations. 

Gappsi the Retaining walls contractor supplier, created a masterpiece of front yard. not only beautiful, but totally functional for these homeowners to live comfortably and also gain value in their home after this big investment in retaining walls and landscaping. Here, we started with the removal of old concrete retaining walls, big trees, and stumps. The wall system used is a Nicolock five inch high colonial wall system with colonial caps used as the last row on each complete wall. The color is Adobe Blend: a combination of brown and gray blend. It is an earth tone mix that blends in with the brick veneers on the house and also makes it soft and appealing to the eye. The first wall was built 10 ft away from the street curb, and bluestone gravel was used to pave the gap between street Belgium block curb and the Nicolock retaining wall. The first wall shows to be one ft high on one side, and 36 inches on the opposite side. This is because it compensates for the slope that is in the street in comparison to the property. A planting bed was then created and a second 36 inch high wall across the front yard was built to retain the driveway going across one side to the other side. This created the circular driveway and flat parking area. A third retaining wall was constructed to retain the steps that lead to the front door porch and entrance. The driveway was paved with asphalt and bordered with Nicolock Adobe Blend Stoneridge pavers to retain the edge of the asphalt driveway and also to make a skirt paved area on each of the driveway entrances. if you in the market for a Landscape and retaining wall project, please contact gappsi the Retaining walls contractor supplier.
