Good afternoon and first post. Hope all goes well. :)
Absolutely no idea when it come to wielding a hammer but keen to give some thought to draining my block. Our house is on a slope with the backyard being level with the rear of the house.
I'm keen over time to add a paved outdoor area to the back of the house which would involve "digging into" the slope. I'd probably go about about 5to10 meters with the eventual drop being about half a meter once I've dug all that out!
While thinking about retaining walls for this endeavour (treated pine sleepers) I'd like to off set the drainage off the sleepers with agi pipe. How do I keep a gentle but constant gradient while digging the trench for the pipe? I understand that if the trench is too sharply run it can create turbulence which can eventually lead to spots of erosion.
I've seen videos like this but they don't address the issue of keeping the trench constant.
