FAQ

Retaining Walls in Universal City — FAQ

When do I need a retaining wall?

You need a retaining wall when a slope is eroding, you want to level a yard for usable space, or you need to manage water and grade changes around a patio or foundation. Retaining walls are common on the rocky, hilly lots throughout Central Texas.

How tall can a retaining wall be without engineering?

As a general rule, retaining walls taller than about 4 feet, or walls holding back heavy loads, require engineering and often a permit in Central Texas. We build to code, with proper base and drainage, and bring in engineering when a project calls for it.

Why do retaining walls fail?

Retaining walls usually fail from poor drainage and an inadequate base, letting water build up behind the wall and push it out. We install proper gravel backfill, drainage and a compacted base so the wall handles Central Texas soil and storms for the long haul.

What materials do you use for retaining walls?

We build retaining walls from segmental block, natural stone and boulders, choosing the material to fit your landscape and the load. Every wall gets proper base preparation and drainage, whether it is a low seating wall or a structural slope wall.

How much does retaining walls cost in Universal City?

There is no flat rate, because retaining walls cost in Universal City depends on your property's size, condition and access, and the exact scope of work.
