Browse Forums Landscape & Garden Design 1 Mar 15, 2014 4:06 pm Hi guys. I'd like to know how people are generally doing for filling up the ground at zero lot boundaries. My house and my two neighbor's house were built by the same builder. Initially the builder designed retaining wall at the zero-lot boundaries but later on they deleted the retaining wall in the reason we do not really need those retaining walls. We all are doing our landscaping by ourselves after the house settlement. Our land has a slight slope as seen in the piture attached.

I am planning to fill up 'A' with soil. but my 'neighbor1' do not want soil invade 'B' due to damage to brick wall. Is 'neighbor1' supposed to do sort of the retaining wall on the boundary 'A' and 'B'? 'B' is 'neighbor1's property. (As seen in the picture, fence starts from a few metres back from the front boundary.) Same problem with neighbor2. Am I supposed to do the some sort of retaining wall on the boundary 'C' and 'D' to block the soil invading into my brick wall? 2. I have another problem here with neighbor2's boundary. My termite control injection hole is located at E(still in my property) but if my neighbor2 is going to fill up D with soil, how can I secure my termite injection hole? 3. When setting up a gate on F in the picture, how can I set up a gate post without invading neighbor1's property? I saw many houses in my town with zero lot garage design, and they set up the post at right next to their neighbor's zero lot garage wall. My neighbors and I are all new residents to this town. I'd like to know what's the win-win solution is. https://www.dropbox.com/s/jpzb5jx4nvgl0 ... 0%2034.jpg You must be new to the internet.
