When it comes to building stone retaining walls on your property, structural integrity plays a huge role.

The structural integrity of your retaining wall is extremely important. At Grand River Stone, our team of professionals makes sure to take the most care when crafting stone retaining walls or to keep customers properly informed if they're going through a DIY process with our stone. Retaining walls are used to prevent erosion, to create level areas in sloping terrain, and to support vertical or near-vertical grade changes. They are commonly used in landscaping, agricultural, and civil engineering applications. So it's important for not only your peace of mind, but for the safety of your family and property that your retaining wall is built correctly.

Here are three of the basic keys that are important to remember when constructing a retaining wall:

  • Stable Foundation
  • Good Contact Between Stones
  • Water Management
