Retaining Walls

Retaining walls are structures designed to hold back soil and prevent erosion in landscapes with varying elevations. They are commonly used to create level areas for patios, gardens, or driveways, and can also serve as decorative elements. Retaining wall projects involve selecting materials like concrete blocks, natural stone, or timber, and designing the wall to handle the lateral pressure of the soil. Proper construction techniques, including drainage management and reinforcement, are crucial to ensure the wall's stability and longevity. Retaining walls can be enhanced with features like integrated seating, lighting, or planters to add both functionality and visual appeal to the landscape.
