What's Under Our Sitting Walls?
A solid foundation is essential for a long-lasting seating wall. We begin by excavating a trench approximately 4-8 inches deep and 12 inches wide. The excavated area is then compacted to create a stable base. A concrete footing is poured into the trench, providing a solid foundation for the wall. The first course of the wall is then set directly onto the concrete, ensuring a strong bond and a durable structure.
Installation
Once the patio height is established, we determine the optimal height for the patio sitting wall. The team carefully plans the construction phase, deciding whether to build the paver sitting wall simultaneously with the patio or as a separate phase.
To ensure a stable foundation, we excavate footings approximately 6 inches deep. The first course of the wall is then set directly onto the concrete footing. Each subsequent course is carefully glued to the previous one, guaranteeing structural integrity and a visually appealing finish.
Design
The choice of wallstone material will influence the overall style and complexity of the project. When selecting a capstone, you can customize it to complement your desired aesthetic whether it’s a concrete cap or a natural stone like bluestone. When designing curved walls, it’s important to consider the additional time and material required for cutting the stones. For optimal comfort, seating walls are typically built to a height of 18-22 inches. This height allows for comfortable seating and provides a visual focal point in your outdoor space.
Types
There are numerous options for creating stunning seating walls. The primary factor influencing the design is the choice of material. While various materials can be used to achieve similar designs, some require more intricate craftsmanship. Common materials include Cambridge Olde English, Maytrx Wall, and Culture Stone. Olde English and Culture Stone are well-suited for straight wall designs, while Maytrx Wall offers versatility for both straight and curved configurations. Seating walls can be designed in various styles, from simple benches to more elaborate sofa-style structures.
