Retaining Wall Project

Over time, retaining walls can begin to fail due to soil pressure, drainage issues, age, or improper construction. Unfortunately, once a retaining wall starts to show signs of movement or deterioration, repairs are often no longer enough. In this case, the existing garden retaining wall has reached that point and will now be fully replaced.

Sinai Construction experts have taken the time to carefully assess the site and develop a detailed plan to safely remove the failing wall and rebuild it correctly. Proper planning is critical to ensure long-term stability, protect surrounding landscaping, and prevent future structural issues.

Sinai Construction’s Approach to Retaining Walls

Sinai Construction specializes in concrete retaining wall construction and tailors each project to the specific needs of the site. Depending on the purpose of the wall and soil conditions, they build either poured-in-place retaining walls or concrete block retaining walls.

Poured-in-Place Retaining Walls These walls are built according to precise construction plans, reinforced with steel, and filled with concrete. They can be finished with a smooth surface or designed to resemble brick or other textures for added visual appeal.

Concrete Block Retaining Walls Concrete block retaining walls are constructed using hollow core concrete masonry units (CMUs). These blocks are reinforced with steel and filled with concrete, creating a strong and durable structure. Sinai’s experienced contractors ensure each block wall is properly reinforced and built to last.

Why Replacement Is the Best Solution

When a retaining wall is failing, replacement is often the safest and most cost-effective option. A new wall allows for proper reinforcement, drainage, and construction methods that meet current standards—helping prevent future movement or damage.

With Sinai Construction handling the removal and rebuild, homeowners can feel confident knowing the new retaining wall will provide long-term stability, functionality, and an improved appearance for the garden.
