41+ Terracing A Sloped Backyard Pictures

41+ Terracing A Sloped Backyard Pictures. Terracing or leveling a sloping garden adds interest and creates workable space, allowing planting at different levels, maybe flower borders and a patio on the top terrace and a vegetable patch lower down the slope, with a herb garden near the kitchen. If your yard has a natural hillside, this slope can direct rainfall into your home's foundation, causing severe damage over time.

If you have a sloping property chances are you have to deal with it in some way.

To make it level 12 feet from the house, i need to go down 18 inches. We need to fence our backyard and the right sight is sloped, rendering it useless. The backyard would be more of a challenge because the developer had used a bulldozer to scrape the building site out of a steep hill of chert. I like to level a 24'wx12'd area.
