This project consists of 2 rammed earth walls that total 100′ in length. Chris and Melissa wanted to have a sound wall to shield them from the road and also to have the aesthetic beauty of rammed earth to do so. They are planning to have a gate in between the walls in the near future.
It turned out to be a great project, we worked with great people, the walls look fantastic and everyone is happy!
We start at the footing in between 2 existing stone walls.
