Retaining Walls

The Importance of Retaining Walls

In the San Francisco Bay Area, we have a lot of hills. The natural slopes, berms, and grades often make it challenging for construction professionals.

Compound that with the various soils, rocks, and natural vegetation in the area and it can be tough to design a structure that’s going to last for a long time.

At Terra Firma Geotechnical, we engineer retaining walls that are made to replace those already failing. These retaining walls are designed to maintain the desired slope and terrain elevation differences.

We work with both residential and commercial properties. We can engineer a custom retaining wall for your particular needs.

Creating a Sure Foundation

There’s simply no way to overstate the importance of having a strong foundation for whatever structure you’re planning on building. It’s where everything starts.

It all starts with a proper review of the site in question. Then an intelligent and innovative design is needed for the foundation. We must keep in mind the challenges that come along with the geography, soils, vegetation, and so forth that come along with living in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Once we’ve crafted sound plans for the foundation, it’s time to build it. Our crew is experienced to build the foundation right. We’re also licensed, bonded, and insured for your protection.

Check out one of our reviews:

(They) were really helpful, nice and did a great job on our retaining wall!! No one would even touch the damaged wall for the price. It’s in a difficult location behind the house with limited access for heavy equipment meaning everything had to be done by hand. I would use (them) again, wish they could rebuild my house.
