Retaining Wall Inspection & Design

Most retaining-wall failures are not sudden at all; the warning signs were simply missed. Our engineers read those signs early and tell you honestly whether a wall can be saved or has reached the end of its service life.

Inspecting Existing Walls

We check for the three problems that travel together: leaning or bulging, cracking, and the blocked drainage that usually causes both. The pressure of saturated soil behind a wall is immense, and a wall that cannot shed water is a wall on a countdown.

Repair or Replace

Some walls need only improved drainage and minor repair; others are past the point where repair makes sense. We give you the honest call and the reasoning behind it, the same way we approach forensic inspections.

Designing New Walls

For new construction on sloped or terraced lots, we design walls sized for the actual soil load and water pressure they will face, with drainage detailed from the first drawing. Every design is sealed and ready for permitting.
