In this video I show how to lay a block retaining wall. I show everything you need to complete the job and how I use all the tools. First I explain how I laid out the wall line and make sure it’s square. Next I show what you need to mix the mortar. After that I teach how I spread the mortar on the footer and lay the block. After that I explain how I level them. Then I show how to do the courses on top of the first. I explain how I use a laser level to transfer the height to the other lead. Next I put up a string line and spread the mortar and explain how to set the block to the line. Then I show how I put the rebar in the cores and how to space them out. Finally I show how to point the joints and core fill the holes with mortar. Thanks for watching!
