What Is a Retaining Wall?
A retaining wall is designed to hold back soil and prevent erosion, especially on sloped properties. Without one, you may notice:
- Soil washing out after heavy rain
- Uneven or sloped areas getting worse over time
- Water pooling near your home or foundation
- Existing walls leaning, cracking, or collapsing
A properly built retaining wall helps protect your property and keep everything in place.
