This yard was done over the course of about 2 years, but this is the final result. The yard started with little to no grass, one unusable patio in front of the grill, and a steep grade on the upper level with a fallen fence. A new side fence was installed and a topper added, the old fence became the back retaining wall for the newly graded area, 2 patios and a secret garden were constructed, and grass, shrubs, vines, and trees were planted.
