City ordinance says a privacy fence can't be over 4 feet tall, but my lawn is low. People walking in the street can see over the fence too easy. Solution is to raise the dirt under the fence. What's the proper tool to scrape a strip of earth out of my existing bar ditch and move it 10 feet to my fence line to create a berm on which I can build a higher fence? I think a berm 2-3 feet tall would be sufficient. What machine do I need, how long would it take, is this a DIY thing, or what would a contractor charge, or what would a moonlighting guy charge? Thanks. Also, please don't be confused by my neighbor's 6 foot fence in the picture...he gets to have 6 feet, I don't, long story.
