How To Install Walls Outline area with stakes and string. Plan height of wall (no higher than recommended height for wall product.) Dig a trench approximately 4" deep and 12" wide. Spread 2" of paver base in the trench and tamp with shovel or tamper. Lay first course of retaining wall and level. Lay the next course on top of the first making sure that the lip on each block overhangs the back edge of the block below. Stagger the blocks horizontally against the row below. To make a curve and maintain even spacing, use a hammer to remove edges of retaining lip. Backfill each course with 4" of crushed rock. Be sure to backfill as you build rather than all at once.
