    Looks great! No blasting required.

    Good pics. The slope behind the outbuilding is down and away, yes? I look at those pics and they scream, "Wall!". I know you don't want to hear that, but I think you could do a full wall just along the building, tapering to a terraced wall as it moves forward, with gentle steps to ascend the...

    Plats are not a substitute for a survey. The dimensions on a plat are estimated, not actual. If the grading and wall you envision don't come close to the boundary line of your property, you're probably fine. However, you cannot encroach even an inch across the boundary. If you do, you are at...

    Per code, or per survey? Did you build the building? Building codes don't override deeds. Don't do anything near the property line without 100% certainty of where the line is. I must have missed the comment about a decorative retaining wall.

    Your dog suffer from altitude sickness?

    I think it would be easier to put a retaining wall in along the driveway, and slope the ground behind the wall away from the buildings. Plus french drains to help the wall.

    A backhoe with a hydarulic jackhammer should get it done. Noisy as hell, but doesn't break windows.

  9. I am buying a house. Not looking forward to moving. Affordable suggestions?

    My suggestion depends a lot on finances and closing schedule: If you have the ability to close on the new house a week or more before closing the sale of the old house, you can use the overlap to move yourself using a rented trailer or truck. If you have kids, nieces/nephews, or other healthy...
