Concrete Block Retaining Walls
​

Retaining walls can be used for a number of purposes. They are an excellent solution if you are looking to maintain soil on two different levels. Retaining walls can be for a smaller amount of soil like a four-foot wall to create garden boxes or a fire-pit. It can also be for a much larger amount of soil like an area along a hillside that you’d like to be able to construct a building or home on. 

Concrete blocks are a common material in the construction of retaining walls. They can be poured to be much larger to support substantial amounts of eroding soil or can be smaller and more decorative to be stacked in places like back yards or businesses. They can be positioned to create things like planters, stairs, and fences. 
 
Now we know what a block wall is. Why don’t we learn more about how they are built? We will start with the foundation of the stone wall. The solid structure is always built from poured concrete to help the block wall stand up vertically and stay intact. It is very important that this process is done to perfection so that the risk of any future block repair is avoided. During this step, a foundation with the right details, including size and depth, is developed in consideration of the scopes, and supporting weight. Our team conducts a procedure that involves mortar joints. During this technique, mortar, otherwise known as grout, is used to link the rows of blocks together. To emphasize on strength and ensure the wall is capable of staying still, our masonry experts will build the concrete block walls with the vertical joints staggered. We’ve discussed the foundation and the grouting/filling procedure, but there’s one more thing we specialize in, which is reinforcement process. Support is essential for any property or construction. And as we introduce both vertical and horizontal support systems, all kinds of pressures caused by weather conditions, soil problems, poor materials/construction and more are eliminated. Hence, sustaining the life of the stone. Using wet concrete, steel and strips made of metal, the strength of the brick is reinforced/reinstated.
