We used a lot of reclaimed materials in our landscape. The bricks
from the old house made a wonderful garden wall (top). Rubble concrete made
various retaining walls, including two of the steps from the front of the house
that broke during excavation. (lower). We also used old bricks to build short dry
stack walls for around our gas meter and a crawlspace access hatch. Old
patio blocks turned into a small stand for our yard waste & compost bins.
In the upper picture, the impervious surface is the top of our
rainwater tank which we had colored and stamped so it could double as a
patio. The slate walkways are visible in both photos.
