Strong, attractive walls that hold back soil, create level spaces, and enhance your landscaping.
Sloped yards limit how you can use your property. Erosion washes away soil and damages landscaping. Uneven terrain makes it hard to create usable outdoor spaces. Retaining walls solve these problems by holding back soil, creating flat areas, and protecting your property from erosion. A well-built retaining wall is both functional and attractive, adding value and usability to your land.
We build all types of retaining walls and concrete masonry structures throughout Spring Valley. From small garden walls to large structural walls that create terraced yards, we have the engineering knowledge and construction experience to build walls that last. Your retaining wall will be properly designed, correctly reinforced, and built to handle the soil pressure and weight it needs to support.
At LVNV Spring Valley Concrete, we work with different retaining wall systems depending on your needs, budget, and aesthetic preferences:
Each system has advantages depending on wall height, soil conditions, drainage needs, and desired appearance. We'll help you choose the right type of wall for your specific situation. All our retaining walls include proper drainage systems because water buildup behind walls causes failure more than anything else.
Building retaining walls in Spring Valley means dealing with challenging soil conditions, occasional heavy rain, and significant temperature swings. Our area's expansive clay soils create extra pressure on retaining walls. Poor drainage can undermine even well-built walls during monsoon storms. These factors require proper engineering and construction techniques.
We design walls with adequate footing depth and width for local soil conditions. Every wall includes proper drainage through weep holes, drainage pipe, or gravel backfill. Reinforcement is sized appropriately for the wall height and soil pressure. These details aren't just good practice, they're essential for walls that will stay standing for decades in our desert environment.
Beyond retaining walls, we handle all types of concrete masonry projects. Decorative pillars and columns enhance your entrance or gate. Privacy walls create screening and security. Garden walls define spaces and add structure to landscaping. Outdoor kitchen islands and BBQ surrounds expand your outdoor living areas.
Our masonry work coordinates with our other services. We can integrate retaining walls with your patio to create multi-level outdoor spaces. We build walls that connect to driveways and handle grade changes. Everything is designed and built as an integrated system, not just individual pieces.
