Does the lowest course of your block wall have blocks turned on their sides to let water flow? That’s supposed to be done by code. It’s something a good mason can fix.
No. My wall was build by my two neighbors who both barely speak English. This was after the one neighbor’s giant scarey dog pushed down one segment of the wooden fence, invaded my yard and nearly ate me!
All very nice hard working men; however, I don’t think I live in America anymore. We don’t need no stinking zoning laws in Phoenix these days.
