I have some landscaping projects coming up. I put in a planting bed along our property line about 9 years ago. At the time, I dug out narrow areas to put 3x4 inch landscape Timbers as a border, knowing it would be a temporary solution. Well, the time has come they need to to be replaced. They are rotting away.
ive looked at pouring my own borders with quikrete and I might do that. I also really like the interlocking retaining wall blocks, even though I don’t really need that feature for just a few courses.
the most physically demanding part of the project (I think) is digging out the ground, whether it’s for a poured concrete feature or the blocks. I recently learned about the existence of these bedscaping tools.
the daily rental rate is pretty reasonable, I think.
I don’t think the trench it would dig out would be wide enough for the blocks, but I guess I can just offset the machine and go down a parallel route to widen it?
I have several areas I would probably do while I had the machine rented. if you’ve used one, are there any nuances or things you wish you would’ve known before using it?
