Retaining Walls
Make it stand out
Retaining walls effectively transform slopes into functional, beautiful spaces. Ideal for steep backyards or sloping driveways, they provide various benefits and design options.
Benefits of Retaining Walls:
Usable Space: Retaining walls create usable areas for patios and gardens.
Prevent Erosion: They stabilize slopes and protect against erosion.
Enhance Aesthetics: Retaining walls add visual interest and define spaces.
Increase Property Value: A good retaining wall boosts curb appeal and property value.
Types of Retaining Walls:
Gravity Retaining Walls: Use weight and friction with soil to resist lateral pressure, made of natural stone, concrete blocks, or interlocking units.
Cantilever Retaining Walls: Use reinforced concrete for a cantilevered structure to resist lateral pressure, suitable for taller walls and steep slopes.
Sheet Pile Retaining Walls: Use interlocking sheets of metal, wood, or concrete as a barrier against soil pressure, often in commercial and industrial settings.
