[QUOTE="RickN, post: 4149309, member: 8854"] Our concrete back porch, is settling enough that the back step now has a big crack where is has pulled away from the house some. Wife and I are debating how to keep things from getting worse. Problem is that the house seems to be built on fill dirt and it is washing down the hill. We can not afford to have the house leveled or a retaining wall built and level the yard. We are thinking of maybe making a small tier and trying to fill that so no more washes down the hill. I have also thought about maybe a couple rolls of galvanized steel edging buried at the edge of the porch. Any suggestion that will not cost an arm & a leg? [/QUOTE]
