Our block walls are made of concrete bricks for increased strength and longevity. The installation of CMU (concrete masonry unit) walls is becoming more popular among commercial and residential customers. Though not all find these walls aesthetically pleasing, it’s easy to improve their appearance by asking your block wall builder to add a stone or brick veneer to the outer surface. |

The Benefits of Retaining Block Wall Installation
Most of the block walls we install are put up to protect properties from the adverse effects of erosion. With time and rainfall, shifting soil may block basement doors and windows if it isn’t held back properly. Retaining walls also offer advantages to hillside property owners. If you’re living on a hill, a block wall will hold the home’s foundation in position; if you’re in a valley, these walls will prevent soil from accumulating around your home. Call today to find out what kind of results you can achieve.
Site Prep Services for a Job Done Right
All new block and retaining walls have soil backfills that are placed below and behind the wall and compressed during construction. It’s very common for additional settling to occur once a wall has been installed. By inspecting the wall each spring, or by having us do the job for you, it’s easier to prevent small problems from becoming big ones.
Retaining walls are designed to move water around the wall face without contributing to erosion. Once settling occurs, though, water will make those depressions bigger, wider, and deeper. If these low spots are left untreated, new precipitation will work its way behind and beneath the wall. The accumulated water will turn the soil soft, and if the wall wasn’t designed to hold the weight, it may fail.
With proper site prep and maintenance, these problems are easy to prevent. We can inspect existing walls, adding more fill if necessary, and we will also evaluate the condition of the land before construction begins. By looking for and preventing the appearance of trouble spots, we’ll ensure a lifetime of good looks and performance from your retaining wall.

Block Wall Repair Services
Residential retaining walls are typically built to create an attractive foundation for stairs, gathering areas, landscaping, and walkways. Block walls are also used in commercial settings such as open-air amphitheaters. A retaining wall’s main purpose is to keep the soil from moving due to gravity and erosion, but these walls are also used to control the flow of water. Though they can be made of wood or steel, the walls we build are made of durable, long-lasting concrete block.

Before we build a block wall, we’ll do a land survey and create a design plan. Without these steps, a concrete wall can create serious problems for a homeowner and their neighbors. When properly planned, a retaining wall ensures that drainage is good enough to prevent the buildup of hydrostatic pressure. However, even the best walls occasionally need repairs. Here are a few signs that it’s time to call for retaining wall repair:

When our brick wall repair contractors arrive to provide block wall repair services, they’ll evaluate several factors. First, we’ll look at the wall’s original design and construction. Some walls are installed in ways that give them a pitch, so they lean toward the substrate they are supposed to hold. Other walls use tiebacks, and some include drains that relieve pressure at the base of the wall. Depending on how your wall was made, our repair strategies may vary.
Once we’ve determined the source and the extent of the problem, we can go about fixing it. In many cases, helical anchors are used to pull walls into place and hold them there. In other instances, however, extensive masonry restoration or complete reconstruction is needed. Whether you have a small job or a big one, you can count on our masonry repair experts for help, service, and advice.
