Our Installation Process
Excavation & Preparation – We dig 10 inches below grade and 4 feet behind the wall placement to establish a stable foundation.
Base Construction – A solid platform is created using compacted crushed rock, ensuring stability.
Wall Anchoring – The first block to block and a half is buried below grade to firmly secure the wall in place.
Drainage System Installation – A Big-O drain pipe is placed behind the wall to prevent water buildup.
Wall Construction – Blocks are stacked and filled with drain rock, with geo-grid reinforcement added where needed for extra strength.
Backfill & Compaction – The area behind the wall is filled and compacted to maintain a solid base and prevent shifting.
Final Touches – The wall is topped with landscape fabric to prevent soil from clogging drainage, then finished with glued caps for a seamless, unmovable structure.
