Retaining Walls

Why Install a Retaining Wall?

• Erosion Control – Prevents soil movement and protects your landscape, especially in areas with heavy rainfall.
• Improved Drainage – Helps manage water flow and reduces pooling in your yard.
• Maximized Usable Space – Creates flat areas for patios, gardens, and walkways.
• Enhanced Aesthetic Appeal – Adds texture and design to your outdoor space.
• Increased Property Value – A smart investment that boosts both functionality and curb appeal.

Types of Retaining Walls We Build

• Gravity Retaining Walls – Uses heavy stone, concrete, or brick to hold back soil. Best for shorter walls with minimal load requirements.
• Cantilevered Retaining Walls – Built with reinforced concrete, leveraging strength for medium to large-scale applications.
• Anchored Retaining Walls – Ideal for high or heavy-load walls, reinforced with anchors for extra stability.
• Segmental Retaining Walls (SRW) – Interlocking concrete blocks that are flexible, durable, and resistant to shifting.

High-Quality Materials for Lasting Durability

We use top-tier materials to ensure strength and longevity:

• Concrete Blocks – Cost-effective, strong, and available in various textures and colors.
• Natural Stone – Classic and elegant, offering a timeless look.
• Brick – Traditional and visually appealing, often used for decorative landscaping.
• Timber – Affordable and easy to install, though it requires periodic maintenance.
• Gabion Baskets – Modern, industrial-style walls made from wire baskets filled with stone.

Key Design & Installation Considerations

When planning your retaining wall, we focus on:

• Height & Load Capacity – Higher walls require additional reinforcement and engineering.
• Drainage Solutions – Proper drainage systems prevent water buildup and ensure long-term stability.
• Aesthetic Integration – We tailor designs to complement your property’s landscape.
• Local Building Codes – Our team ensures compliance with all permit requirements.

Retaining Wall Maintenance Tips

• Inspect for Cracks or Shifting – Early detection helps prevent major structural issues.
• Clean & Seal – Regular cleaning and sealing protect materials from weather damage.
• Ensure Proper Drainage – Keep weep holes and drainage channels clear to avoid pressure buildup.
• Repair Small Issues Promptly – Addressing minor damage early prevents costly repairs later.
