What is a Retaining Wall? 
Retaining walls are a necessity in certain situations of construction. They are built to survive the most hazardous conditions and pressure from soil. Pressure can also be caused by weather conditions, natural disasters such as earthquakes, flooding (a form of liquid pressure), sandstorms, and other rough materials surrounding the retaining wall. Our contractors specializes in creating the most advanced, strongest material using the highest quality materials, machinery, and expertise. Keep in mind that as foundations and conditions of the home vary, so will the kind of retaining  being installed. Such installation utilizes a variety of materials including but not limited to rocks, timbers that are treated, concrete blocks, poured concrete, and so forth, which can all contribute to the retention of soil and help the retaining wall sustain its strength and lifespan. Through our extensive capabilities and years of experience, we are able to provide you with a range of retaining installations, all depending on not only your liking but also what your property most requires. Let’s look at them together. 
 
Our Retaining Walls
​
Our contractors are aware of the evolution of retaining walls and their purpose in all the scenarios they have been built through. While this is true, we also acknowledges that there are certain retaining walls that are more common than others. Some include railroad ties, treated timbers, stones, brick and concrete blocks, and natural stones. We, however, refrain from recommending wood for a retaining wall as a result of its short lifespan as it may not survive certain pressures and surrounding conditions. This product specifically can decompose as with any other type of wood and this will harm the block wall built. A few of our options include the following walls:
-        Gravity Retaining 
-        Crib Retaining 
-        Gabion Retaining 
-        Cantilever Retaining 
-        Buttressed Retaining 
-        Anchored Retaining 
-        Piled Retaining 
-        Hybrid Systems 
-        Mechanically Stabilized Earth Retaining

​Why Do I Need a Retaining Block Wall?
Yes, it’s good that your property has retaining walls. But is it enough to just install it without knowing their benefits? Probably not especially if your home is to be valued some day for a sale or if you might need to get some repair in the future. Let’s lay it out for you. You’ll have one of the highest quality bases for your property since its depth will support the rest of the it. Also, we will ensure backfilling is completed, wherein sufficient dirt will be installed at the back of the wall to hold back piles of soil. You’ll need to also note that a proper drainage, when installed, helps stop water from passing through the stone foundation. Hence, hydrostatic pressure will not settle behind it or cause any cracking. Our landscape contractors can reassure you that they will design appropriate systems to form the landscape taking into consideration the height. With these in mind, waterproof membranes are also helpful in keeping moisture away and avoiding residue. And lastly, they’re just beautiful structures. They create a gorgeous landscape, so why not? Trust us. You’ll see what we mean just when we build it for you. 

With this option, you will get the most privacy, security, and added love for your landscape. I mean, do you need more than these three when building you home? So, what is it exactly to build a cinder block? Also known as breeze blocks, cinder blocks are lightweight building bricks containing an element known as concrete masonry units (CMU), which are arranged to create a retaining wall or a part of any building. Such blocks differ in size and can be different in their design parameters, just like any other. When installing these, we make sure there is a solid footing and our experts complete a thorough inspection prior to building the foundation structure. Due to their ease of installation and life length, they’ve become a great technique of building. If built and designed properly, they can offer strong support systems for the vertical loads on block walls through their compressive strength. We usually fill the cinder block using cement-based mortar or poured concrete with a bit of pea gravel. By doing so, we are able to make it as similar as possible to concrete. To achieve a desirable outcome, our contractors fix the cinder blocks in a consecutive, linked form and may add some steel strengthening bars at the center of the blocks. 
 
Do I Need a Cinder Block Foundation? 
 
Well, you do not need a lot of material or forms as required when building poured concrete structures when securing and constructing the blocks. Also, if designed and constructed properly, you will have such strong, sustainable support for the vertical loads on foundation. Moreover, we believe it is important to install cinder blocks for the mere fact that the steel rebar and mortar strengthen the foundation drastically and improve it beyond its original state, if repaired. All can provide you with a reliable, sustainable investment and added value on your property.
