Retaining walls add scale and beauty to your landscape. Our
landscape specialists will work with you to fulfill all of the
aspects of the design. We put together a full scale design to
determine placement and height of your wall. We also look into
conditions above and below the ground to assess the necessity for
reinforcement. We also take into account curves and corners into
the design. Your landscape will have an added touch with a brand
new retaining wall.
Two types of Retaining Walls
Gravity Wall: Gravity walls rely on their own
weight for support. They are held up by the soil that is directly
behind them.
Reinforced Retaining Wall: Reinforced retaining
walls are held up by a geo grid of soiled that is blocked in a way
to help support the wall.
Features we take into account:
Slopes: slopes above or below the
wall will add pressure or make the wall unstable. We will do a
thorough inspection of the area to determine how to counteract
slopes.
Surcharges: Added weight about the wall such as patios, swimming
pools, and driveways.
Setback: The amount that you wall leans into a hill. Setbacks
provide better stability.
