BRICK RETAINING WALLS
We want to share some general information that all homeowners need to know about their retaining walls. These act as a barrier between substrate and your landscape. Force Masonry can provide you with a wall that you’ll love that will last for decades. Contact us today for an estimate on your next project.
STRENGTH TO LAST
Brick walls will have a block foundation under it, and a block supporting wall behind it to give it the strength it needs to last.
When done right, it will have 42 inches worth of foundation and footing below the ground. Brick walls alone do not have the strength to be a retaining wall, so it is important to have the main structure be a block wall with reinforcement for stability and strength. From there you can dress the outside of the block up with the veneer of your choice.
If you have a vision to update the outside look of your home, contact us today for an estimate! We service all of the Pekin, IL and surrounding areas!.
