Intercepting higher neighboring plots: L-shaped stones, etc. - Tips

Just an idea: What do you think about placing the L-block first at a distance of one meter from the neighbor and then having a kind of raised bed of one meter width above it? You can nicely plant it, and the L-block has its base entirely on your property.

That would be a nice solution in our case, but I simply don't have enough space for it and the wall would then be too close to the house..

However, I have to add that on my higher side there are no traffic loads. Therefore, I am relatively relaxed about the integration. Usually, the "inverted L-retaining walls" are also reinforced against pressure from the other side.

Could this also be solved like this: for example, with a height difference of 1.50 m, a corresponding foundation (80-100 cm), then the 24 cm concrete formwork blocks, reinforced with steel and filled with concrete?

Or what makes the L-block "better" in such a case?

Or what makes the L-stone "better" in such a case?

The L-stone has a wide base, which is better structurally.

Hello do you perhaps have plans of the situation? Or have you already addressed the problem here?

I have now installed stones from EHL. Great quality. Sorry, concrete shuttering stones and planter boxes for such purposes are, mind you, all just "botched" for me. There is nothing better than L-stones in this regard. With visible interior they are a bit expensive, but it should last a few years... . For me at least 50 years before I kick the bucket :D

Heavyweight wall made of natural stone also looks good. The retaining wall could also simply be cast in concrete.

How much did the running meter cost you? Delivery / installation / how big?

There are different factors - appearance/taste, price, functionality/static/durability.

Statically, there are usually different options for most situations.
In terms of price, concrete formwork blocks or similar are certainly the cheapest option, whereas L-blocks and natural stone walls are significantly more expensive.
Visually, and this is my opinion, I have hardly ever seen anything that looks good with formwork blocks. And I have seen a lot, because before our construction we drove around all kinds of new housing developments for 2 years. Formwork blocks have always been the ugliest to my taste. Neither "untreated" nor simply painted nor plastered do I like them.
L-blocks are a neat solution that I also like, but I have to say that I don't want to see too much of them permanently either. When you are encircled around the property with them at a height of 1.8m, it is no longer nice.
Natural stones can really make something special... but depending on the case, they can get quite expensive again.
