Retaining Wall Design and Construction San Rafael CA

Retaining Wall Design and Construction San Rafael CA

Retaining walls are key to holding back a vertical soil face that, without proper retention, could slide, causing damage to your, or neighboring, property. Retaining walls and terracing can provide additional flat space in your yard for a patio, vegetable garden, or lawn you have always wanted.

It is important that your retaining wall be built correctly. Otherwise, you may have to rebuild again in just a few years. The keys to a properly constructed retaining wall are the embedment of footings and drainage.

Westward Builders has experience in all types of retaining walls and can help you with the design, permitting, and construction of your retaining wall.

We build the following types of retaining walls:

• Soldier Beam Walls: vertical steel beams set in concrete piers with pressure treated wood lagging installed between the steel beams.
• Cast in Place Walls: using 6 inch to 12 inch wide form lumber to create a board finish that will provide a modern look to your retaining wall.
• Rock Carved and Stucco Textured Shotcrete Walls: this type of wall is available in multiple colors which will blend the retaining wall into landscape.
• Catchment Walls: by using the Geobrugg chain link system with drilled and grouted rock anchors will provide you with security that an unsupported slope won’t crumble away causing damage to your building.
• Versa Lock Wall: a pre-engineered block wall that is cost-effective, easy-to-install, and gives you endless design options.
