Built small natural stone retaining walls around our front flower beds. It adds so much curb appeal and stops the mulch from finding its way onto the driveway. Nice touch.

Common Retaining Walls Questions

What material is best for retaining walls in Calera?

For Calera, we recommend concrete block or natural stone retaining walls. Both handle moisture well and provide the durability needed for our climate. Timber walls work for smaller applications.

Do I need a building permit for a retaining wall on my Calera property?

In Calera, a permit is typically required for any retaining wall over four feet tall to ensure structural safety and proper drainage. Our team manages the entire permitting process, ensuring your project complies with all local municipal codes and zoning requirements.

How do you ensure retaining walls can handle the heavy seasonal rainfall in Calera?

Proper drainage is critical in Calera due to our heavy rains, so we install perforated pipes and gravel backfill to prevent hydrostatic pressure buildup. This preventative measure protects the wall from shifting or collapsing during intense Alabama storms.

What kind of warranty and maintenance should I expect for my new wall in Calera?

We provide a comprehensive structural warranty to give Calera homeowners peace of mind against settling or material defects. For maintenance, we recommend periodic inspections of the drainage outlets and checking for any signs of soil erosion around the wall's base.
