CHARLOTTE NC EROSION CONTROL-RETAINING WALLS

Successful retaining wall
The key to our successful retaining wall construction is a level foundation. The foundation course is below ground level so that the soil will hold it firmly in place.
Measure out your wall
We measure out your prospective wall, using stakes and string to mark off the key points, starting at the lowest point, we use a flat shovel to dig a trench for the foundation course. The dimensions of the trench will vary depending on the size of your block generally about 2 to 7 inches deep.

Wondering what to do
We will tamp the trench with a hand tamper to compact the underlying soil or apply a concrete base. If your property slopes, we may have to dig your foundation trench in a series of steps equal to the height of the blocks or rocks or boulders. Then, as we continue with construction, we build up the lower sections with block until the stepped areas accept successive courses of blocks in a level and seamless wall. Some retaining walls will be concreted to hold the weight of the dirt on the opposite side. We also do brick work with left over bricks from your home builders. And you were wondering what to do with the 500 to 1000 bricks you have sitting in the garage. Some of the rocks we use are so large they don't need to be cemented, they weigh about a hundred pounds a piece, they're not going anywhere.
Sound foundation
Once we have a sound foundation trench, we begin laying your block. Regularly checking level as we build each course.

It's a masterpiece
If your property is relatively flat, we’ll continue laying the foundation course, making sure that all blocks are level with each other and below ground. Once the wall is completed and dried we wire brush off excess concrete dry brush it smooth, clean up and then were done. It's a masterpiece. Your going to love it.
