Common questions
- Do I need a permit for a retaining wall?
- Walls over four feet often require a permit and engineering. We tell you up front what your municipality requires and handle the details.
- Why do retaining walls fail?
- Almost always drainage. Water builds up behind a wall and pushes it out. Every wall we build gets drainage stone and drain tile so pressure never has a chance to build.
