The Need for Retaining Walls

There are several reasons why homeowners and commercial property owners want a retaining wall in their properties. Most of the time, it is built to improve the safety and functionality of a certain area. Construction of retaining walls becomes a necessity if there are slopes in the property that could turn into safety hazards. Torrential rains, for example, can cause soil erosion that can in turn damage foundation, landscape, drainage, and other outdoor features.

Another important function of a retaining wall is to improve the aesthetics of the outdoors. In fact, many landscapers use retaining walls to create certain themes and unique designs for their landscaping projects. These concrete structures also create more functional spaces in the landscape. Sloped areas are normally unusable but with retaining walls built in these areas, new functional spaces are created. These spaces may now be used for patios, sitting areas, decks, or gardens.

Concrete Retaining Wall Builders

Since retaining walls have critical functions in landscapes and outdoor areas, they must be built durably. Poorly designed and built walls may not be able to withstand the pressure of the backfill, which could result to the collapse of the structure. This scenario is not only dangerous but will also affect the overall appearance of your outdoors.

With Paradigm Concrete Design, you are assured of a durable and functional retaining wall. We always see to it that our design can meet clients’ needs and will comply with local regulations. Our company uses only premium masonry materials to ensure the integrity of all retaining walls that we build.
