Retaining walls serve several different important purposes on your property. Starting off, retaining walls are a functional form of landscaping. Retaining walls provide essential erosion control by preventing soil or sand from being moved into an unsatisfactory location. They retain the soil/sand in a more desirable location that allows your property to drain properly. Matched with drainage piping, retaining walls can help alleviate many drainage and grade problems around your property. Therefore, retaining walls can limit yearly maintenance on grading the soil/sand around your property. They are a great investment between the lower yearly maintenance costs and enhancing the beauty of the property. Lastly, retaining walls can provide more “usable space” around your property. They can limit a steep slope with a more desirable flat surface that can be a great location for steps or even plant material. The possibilities are nearly endless!
