Wet season's on the way. Is the water behind your retaining wall going anywhere? Swipe through.

When soil behind a wall gets saturated and the water can't escape, it pushes against the wall. Over time that shows up as leaning, bulging, cracks, or water seeping through the face.

A proper drainage setup gives that water a way out:
- Free-draining gravel backfill instead of cheap fill
- Perforated ag pipe behind the wall
- Weep holes through the wall face
- Geotextile fabric so soil doesn't clog the gravel and pipe

It also helps to keep roof runoff and surface water from heading straight at the wall.

From the ground up: an overgrown block in Kanimbla, turned into a house pad.

- Cleared the long grass so we could see the ground
- Cut into the red soil on the high side with a Kubota tracked excavator and built up the low side
- A surveyor set the heights with a level and staff
- Shaped and compacted the pad to manage water on the slope

The builder could move straight onto it.

Sloping block? The pool can be designed around the slope.

A fibreglass pool is a pre-moulded shell, so your yard has to fit the shell. Concrete works the other way round: any shape, any depth, any size, built to suit the block. On sloping and unusual yards, which are common around Cairns, that flexibility makes a real difference.

One option for an elevated or sloping block with a view is an infinity edge. The vanishing edge blends the pool into the landscape.

A plunge pool is heavy once it's full, so the slab under it can't move.

For this job in Mooroobool, the slab sits under an elevated timber house, right beside the existing brick paving. Here's what went in before the pool:

- Stripped back the ground and excavated to depth
- Laid and compacted a road base foundation to carry the load
- Boxed it with timber formwork and set steel reinforcement
- Poured to precise levels so the pool sits square
- Ran a drainage channel with a metal grate where the slab meets the paving, to take wet-season water away

With Cairns rain and reactive soil, compaction and drainage are the parts you can't cut corners on.

Just had your yard levelled? Here's what to lay on it in Cairns.

Our returfing guide compares four grasses that suit FNQ heat, humidity and wet-season downpours:

- Buffalo: copes with heat and partial shade, soft underfoot for kids and pets
- Zoysia: dense and slow-growing, so less mowing and fertilising
- Shadetuff/Matrella: shade-tolerant and hardy, good for coastal yards, embankments and sloped blocks
- Tropika Blue Couch: built for full sun and sandy soils

Once it's down, water deeply for the first 2 to 3 weeks and keep foot traffic off until the roots take hold.
