Corten Steel Retaining Wall Assembly (Patio Garden)
£300
Maze Hill, Greater London
15th Nov 2025
1. Installation of 450 mm high Corten Steel Retaining Wall in Patio Garden Attached image shows layout (not bolted in / installed however) Panel Assembly: - Assemble the pre-fabricated 450 mm Corten steel panels using the supplied bolts and corner plates. - Ensure all joints are fully tightened and aligned prior to fixing to the patio. Fixing to Brick Wall - Position the sides of the Corten wall against the brickwork. - Fix to the wall using suitable masonry bolts, maintaining a small air gap to allow for drainage, thermal expansion, and airflow behind the steel. Base Fixing to Patio - Confirm that the patio tiles are solidly bonded to a concrete bedding layer beneath (test / inspection of surrounding tile edges). - Drill through the patio tiles and into the concrete sub-base at the designated fixing points. - Install masonry anchors into the concrete to secure the base of the Corten structure. - If the concrete quality is uncertain or inconsistent, use epoxy (chemical) anchors, to provide superior strength and grip in weaker / older concrete. - Ensure the base of the Corten wall sits flat and evenly on the patio surface. - Verify that the installed anchors will provide adequate resistance against lateral movement once the soil load is added. Sealing and Drainage - Apply a thin bead of exterior-grade silicone or flexible outdoor sealant along the inside junction between the Corten and patio surface to reduce soil washout. - This joint does not need to be watertight - just enough to contain soil. - Do not fully seal the outside edge; allow small gaps to enable water drainage and avoid moisture trapping behind the wall. 2. Painting of Garden Door

Curtain rail: The curtain rail is loose on one (hollow wall? end and not secured on the other (cement patched wall) but fixable to the wall (may require new plugs).
