Overview

Retaining Wall Construction for Your Site

Rock Supremacy builds engineered earth retention systems for slope and construction projects. Start with the wall geometry, retained ground, nearby structures, drainage conditions, and available working space. These conditions, together with the project engineering, shape the installation scope and construction sequence.

At Lava Hot Springs, we installed a tiered soil nail wall system with horizontal drains on a slope above the hot springs and highway. Our Moffat Subdivision railroad project involved drilling and soldier pile installation along a narrow canyon corridor, coordinated with railroad operations.

Explore soil nail wall construction, soldier pile walls, and rock anchor and tieback installation. Our technical resources also explain MSE walls and gabion systems. For temporary excavation support, visit our shoring services.

For a construction proposal, send the site location, wall plans and sections, geotechnical report if available, and bid and construction dates. Identify property boundaries, reinforcement access, utilities, adjacent foundations, equipment routes, and drainage discharge arrangements. Include facing, finish, testing, and temporary or permanent retention requirements.

Discuss your retaining wall project with our team. If you are still selecting a system, describe the site and the engineering information available so we can identify the next steps for a construction scope.

Questions

Retaining Walls FAQ

Cost depends on wall type, retained height, soil conditions, surcharge loads, drainage, access, and finish requirements. Share plans and site information so we can compare suitable construction methods and prepare a scope-specific estimate.
Engineering and permit requirements depend on the wall, its loads, nearby structures, and the jurisdiction. Share the project location and plans so we can coordinate construction with the engineer and permitting requirements.
The 'best' wall depends on your situation. Soil nail walls are excellent for cut slopes and excavation support; they're economical and build quickly. MSE walls suit fill applications and highway work. Soldier pile walls work well in urban areas with tight property lines. Gabion walls provide drainage and blend with natural landscapes. We evaluate your site and recommend the most appropriate system.
Retained height depends on the wall system, ground conditions, available space, and loading. Taller walls may require anchors, reinforcement, or a different wall configuration. We review the project design and access before proposing a construction approach.
Service life depends on the wall design, materials, exposure, drainage, and maintenance. The project engineer establishes the design requirements, including whether the wall is temporary or permanent.
Yes. Depending on the failure mode, we can stabilize failing walls with tieback anchors, soil nails, or drainage improvements. Sometimes we install micropiles behind the wall to support it. In severe cases, we remove and replace the failed wall. Our assessment determines the most cost-effective repair approach.
Water behind a retaining wall dramatically increases lateral pressure, sometimes doubling or tripling the load the wall must resist. Saturated soil is also heavier and more likely to slide. Every wall we build includes drainage: gravel backfill, geocomposite drains, and weep holes to prevent hydrostatic pressure buildup. Proper drainage is non-negotiable.
Absolutely. Beyond the structural function, retaining walls can enhance property appearance. Options include colored shotcrete, form liner textures, sculpted shotcrete that mimics natural stone, vegetated MSE wall facing, natural stone veneer, and decorative block systems.
Construction time depends on wall length and height, ground conditions, access, drainage, curing, and the finish. We develop a sequence around excavation stages and nearby operations after reviewing the design.
Yes. Our engineering team prepares design drawings, calculations, and permit applications. We coordinate with local building departments and respond to plan check comments. Permitting is included in our design-build services, you don't need to hire a separate engineer.
Provide the site location, wall height and length or plans and sections, geotechnical information, and target bid and construction dates. Include drainage, facing, testing, access, property boundaries, and nearby structures or utilities. Identify whether the wall design is complete or design-build delivery needs to be discussed.

"When it comes to heavy foundation anchoring and stabilization projects, these guys are superb. Although the majority of the company's jobs involve heavy civil work, my project required their skills and specialized equipment for a challenging residential cliffside application. After careful review and critique of our plans, as well as assuring that expectations were fully understood, the work began on time and was completed ahead of schedule with minimal trauma along the way. In all, the job required the installation of ten horizontal deep rock anchors, several vertical piles, and shotcrete encapsulation. I highly recommend Rock Supremacy's services and would definitely use them again."

Residential Slope Stabilization
"We engaged Rock Supremacy for a very challenging cliffside project that involved the stabilization and reinforcement of a retaining wall which ultimately required a total of ten drilled horizontal rock anchors, multiple vertical stabilization pilings and encapsulation with concrete structural reinforcement. Even though my residential project, as large as it was to me, was of a much smaller scale than the company often deals with, it approached the task with all of the consideration and professionalism I could hope for. Notably, they were not hesitant to take on a challenging terrain even with its limited access. From the outset, Corey Muir was very engaged in the project and with finding workable solutions. He was eager to explore alternative options for accomplishing the goals and worked diligently with my engineering consultants to tweak the design for a practical, affordable solution. Throughout the planning process, he maintained excellent communications with myself and our structural engineers. Corey was careful to make sure, prior to our final agreement, that all details were fully understood. The company began the project exactly when anticipated. The on-site crew, David, Nate and Jules proved to be the "A" team. They are very skilled and professional. I found them considerate, easy to interact with, and flexible with regard to change possibilities. The team showed careful concern for my property and all possible avoidance of collateral damage while completing a job that involved some very heavy equipment. When the concrete supplier was unduly delayed, they took it in stride and made the best of the situation. The job was actually finished a little ahead of schedule. Definitely a five star rating for this group, I would be happy to further discuss my experience with anyone contemplating the use of Rock Supremacy's services."
