Retaining Walls
The hardscape features that must be included in your outdoor improvement project are retaining walls. These structures are not only needed for aesthetic purposes but also for their critical functions in the landscape. A retaining wall is primarily used to prevent soil erosion, which can damage landscape features, foundations, and other structures inside your property. Hilly areas in your property can also pose safety risks to you, your family, and guests. And only a professionally designed and built retaining wall can reduce those risks.At Thies Custom Walls and Landscaping, we guarantee the structural integrity of every retaining wall we design and build.

Building a Retaining Wall
Building a retaining wall is not a DIY project. It requires expertise, proper training, tools and equipment, and the use of proven methods and techniques. If you allow inexperienced contractors to handle the job, you will surely get an inferior structure that may collapse anytime. Retaining walls are investments, so they must be built tough to last long.
Retaining Wall Design
The retaining wall design is very critical in achieving a properly functioning wall. Your contractor should create a design that can meet the wall’s load-bearing requirements. Moreover, all factors that may affect the integrity of the wall should be considered. Some of these factors include the height and size of the wall to be built, the soil condition, the amount of soil to be retained, and the quality of the materials to be used in the construction. When all these factors are taken into consideration, you can surely have a sturdy wall that can endure harsh external conditions.
