Tips for a Durable Block Retaining Wall

Interlocking Retaining Wall Blocks

Ensure Sufficient Drainage Around Retaining Wall

Water is likely the biggest threat to the usually impregnable block retaining walls. Therefore, it’s critical to have reliable drainage features such as gravel or perforated pipe behind the wall to redirect water away from the structure and relieve hydrostatic pressure.

Proper Base Preparation for the Retaining Wall

It can’t be stressed enough that foundation is going to make or break your block retaining wall. The foundation has to be both solid and levelled. In most cases, retaining wall experts will use a gravel base and add a sand layer to ensure that the surface can be flattened across the board.

Overall, you can expect the engineers to grade the area, compact the soil, and install proper drainage to prevent water buildup behind the wall, which should prevent excessive pressure buildup and instability.
