FAQS:
Q1. Why should I build a retaining wall?
If your home is on low ground, a retaining wall acts as a strong shield. It helps prevent heavy rain or melting snow from washing away the soil near your foundation. This protects your home from damage. A retaining wall can also create a flat area for a garden or seating area. It’s especially useful when your yard is mostly sloped and difficult to use.
Q2. How do I care for a retaining wall?
You should check your retaining wall frequently, especially before and after heavy rain or snow seasons. Check drainage pipes and clear away leaves or debris. Pay attention to any bent or bulging sections of the wall. If you see the wall pushing outward, call a professional immediately. These signs could mean the wall is weakening and could collapse.
Q3. Is a wood retaining wall a good choice?
Yes, it can be! A wooden retaining wall is a good option for small areas. It won’t last as long as stone or concrete, but with proper design and strong wood, it can last up to 20 years. If you choose wood, use thick and strong wood. Avoid treated pine or old railroad ties as they won’t last as long.
Q4. How long does it take to build a retaining wall?
The time depends on how large and detailed the wall is. Typically, a wall that is 4 feet high and 15 feet long takes about three days to complete. Larger or taller walls will require more time. You can ask your contractor for a clear idea based on your design.
Q5. How do you build a retaining wall on a slope?
First, you dig a trench. When building on a slope, you will need to dig deep enough for a strong foundation. The wall will require six inches of base material, plus an additional inch for each foot of wall height. For example, a two-and-a-half-foot-high wall will require a trench about 8.5 inches deep. This job can be difficult, so hiring an experienced retaining wall contractor is usually the best choice.
