What types of retaining walls do you build?

We build gravity walls, concrete block walls, natural stone walls, and timber retaining walls to suit your landscape’s needs and aesthetic preferences in Chilliwack.

How do retaining walls prevent erosion?

Retaining walls hold back soil on sloped properties, preventing erosion and controlling water runoff. We also include proper drainage systems to enhance their effectiveness.

Do I need engineering approval for a retaining wall?

In Chilliwack, retaining walls over a certain height may require engineering and permits. We handle the entire process, including permits and approvals, to keep your project stress-free.

How long does it take to install a retaining wall?

Most retaining wall installations take 3 to 7 days, depending on the wall size, materials used, and site conditions. Complex designs may require more time.

Retaining Wall Installation Services in Chilliwack

We offer a wide range of retaining wall options designed to improve the functionality and appearance of your outdoor space. Our team uses high-quality materials and proven construction techniques to build walls that stand the test of time while blending seamlessly with your landscape design.

Gravity Retaining Walls

Gravity retaining walls use their own weight and mass to hold back soil and stabilize slopes. These walls are typically built from heavy materials like stone, concrete blocks, or large timbers and work well for shorter heights and garden terraces. Simple in design but highly effective, they require a solid, level base to function properly and are ideal for areas where additional reinforcement isn’t necessary.

Concrete Block Walls

Concrete block retaining walls feature interlocking systems that create a strong, modern-looking structure. The uniformity of these blocks offers clean lines and a sleek aesthetic, making them a popular choice for contemporary landscapes. With the ability to build taller walls when properly reinforced, they are durable, low-maintenance, and designed to withstand significant pressure from soil and water.

Natural Stone Walls

Natural stone retaining walls provide a classic and timeless appearance that blends beautifully into both traditional and modern landscapes. Each stone is carefully placed to create a strong, stable structure that resists shifting over time. In addition to their durability, natural stone walls offer unique textures and colors, giving your property a custom, high-end look.

Drainage and Reinforcement Systems

Proper drainage and reinforcement are essential to the longevity and performance of any retaining wall. We incorporate features like perforated drain pipes, gravel backfill, and weep holes to ensure water doesn’t build up behind the wall. For taller or more complex installations, we use geogrids and soil reinforcements to add stability, prevent shifting, and protect the structural integrity of the wall for years to come.

Frequently Asked Questions

We answer common questions homeowners and property managers in Chilliwack ask about retaining wall installations to help you make informed decisions.

What type of retaining wall is best for my property?

The best type depends on the slope, soil conditions, wall height, and your design preferences. We assess your property and recommend a solution that fits your needs.

Do I need drainage behind my retaining wall?

Yes! Proper drainage prevents water pressure buildup behind the wall, which can cause structural failure. We include weep holes, drain pipes, and backfill as part of our construction.

How long does it take to build a retaining wall?

Most projects are completed in 3–7 days, depending on the wall size, material choice, and site conditions.

How high can my retaining wall be without engineering?

In most areas, walls under 4 feet don’t require engineered plans. Taller walls often need a structural design and permit approval, which we can help arrange.
