Retaining Walls: Essential for Mountain Properties
Mountain landscapes, with their inherent slopes, are prone to erosion, threatening structures and beauty.

TYPES OF RETAINING WALLS OFFERED BY STRATEGIC FENCE
Learn more about the walls we design and install below.
Crib Walls
Crib walls are strong retaining walls built with interlocking timbers that form boxes filled with rocks for drainage. This design allows groundwater to pass through, reducing hydrostatic pressure. The large footprint of crib walls also helps prevent settling, and they can be built to impressive heights.
Solid Walls
Solid walls, ideal for smaller projects or tight spaces, offer a compact retaining solution. Their design can be enhanced by incorporating stepped levels adorned with flowers and shrubs, creating a visually appealing and integrated landscape feature. This combination of functionality and aesthetics makes solid walls a versatile choice for various property enhancements.
Steps
Steps offer both functional and aesthetic value to landscapes. They can be seamlessly integrated into a retaining wall design, providing convenient access across varying elevations. Alternatively, steps can stand alone as an independent feature. For added safety and accessibility, handrail systems can be incorporated into the step design.
Other Systems
Beyond our core offerings, we also specialize in a range of other retaining wall systems to accommodate unique project needs. These include cantilever walls, known for their sleek, modern look and ability to handle significant loads; piled walls, ideal for deep excavations and challenging soil conditions; and hybrid systems, which combine the strengths of different wall types for optimal performance and versatility.
Your Questions, Answered
Do I need a retaining wall?
Retaining walls are essential for projects like sunken patios, walkout basements, and drastic elevation changes. They’re also ideal for creating terraced gardens and landscaping focal points.
Do I need a permit?
Permits are typically required for retaining walls. Check with your local municipality and obtain an accurate land survey to avoid utility lines.
How deep should the wall be?
Generally, for every 12 inches of height above ground, the wall should be 1 inch deep. Commercial projects may require a minimum depth of 6 inches. Depth can vary based on materials and wall type.
