Concrete Footings & Retaining Walls
Protect your property and create usable space with professionally engineered concrete footings and retaining walls. We provide structural solutions that combine functionality with aesthetic appeal.
Structural Support & Erosion Control
Concrete footings and retaining walls serve critical functions in residential and commercial properties. Whether you need to prevent soil erosion, create level areas on sloped terrain, or provide structural support for buildings and structures, properly engineered concrete solutions ensure long-term stability and safety.
Our team has extensive experience designing and installing concrete footings and retaining walls that meet engineering requirements while enhancing your property's appearance and functionality.

Benefits of Concrete Retaining Walls
Erosion Prevention
Protect your property from soil erosion caused by rain, wind, and water runoff, preserving your landscape and preventing damage.
Increased Usable Space
Transform sloped terrain into level, functional areas for gardens, patios, or additional outdoor living space.
Enhanced Property Value
Well-designed retaining walls improve aesthetics and functionality, significantly boosting property appeal and market value.
Long-Term Durability
Properly engineered concrete retaining walls can last 50+ years with minimal maintenance, far outlasting timber or block alternatives.
Engineering & Design Considerations
Proper Drainage
We install drainage systems behind retaining walls to prevent water buildup and hydrostatic pressure that can cause wall failure. This includes weep holes, drainage pipes, and gravel backfill.
Structural Reinforcement
All retaining walls are reinforced with steel rebar according to engineering specifications. Walls over 4 feet typically require additional reinforcement and may need engineering approval.
Foundation Depth
Footings must extend below the frost line and be sized appropriately for the wall height and soil conditions. We ensure proper foundation depth for maximum stability.
Soil Analysis
Understanding soil composition and drainage characteristics is crucial for retaining wall design. We assess soil conditions to determine the appropriate wall design and reinforcement.
Common Applications
Hillside Stabilization
Prevent landslides and soil movement on sloped properties with engineered retaining walls.
Terraced Landscaping
Create multiple level areas for gardens, lawns, or outdoor living spaces on sloped terrain.
Driveway Support
Support driveways on sloped properties and prevent erosion along driveway edges.
Property Line Definition
Create clear boundaries while managing elevation changes between properties.
