Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about our retaining walls

In San Diego, retaining walls over 3 feet in height typically require permits. Walls near property lines may have additional requirements. We assist with the entire permit process.

It depends on height, aesthetics, and budget. Interlocking blocks are popular for their strength and appearance. We'll recommend the best option during consultation.

Proper drainage is critical. We install drainage systems behind walls including gravel backfill, weep holes, and sometimes drain pipes to prevent water buildup.

Without engineering, typically 3-4 feet. Taller walls require engineering and permits. We can build walls of any height with proper engineering.

Most residential walls take 3-7 days depending on length and height. Complex projects with engineering and permits take longer.
