Retaining Walls in South Wales

You need a retaining wall when there is an abrupt change in the level of the ground on either side of a wall. This often happens when excavating into a sloping site to create a building pad or when adding a basement. The retaining wall must provide enough strength to resist the lateral load produced by the retained ground as well as any additional loads within the zone of influence of the wall.

We design retaining walls specific to the conditions on your site. They may include mass masonry gravity walls, rock filled baskets, grouted cavity or reinforced concrete walls. Which design is best will depend on several factors such as site restrictions, ground conditions, retained height and loadings.

We cover retaining walls throughout South Wales covering Carmarthenshire, Ceredigion, Pembrokeshire, Powys, Swansea, Cardiff, Neath and Port Talbot.
