Start with a clearly defined scope.
Retaining wall requests should show the retained height, available space, adjacent loads and intended construction. We review concrete and CMU wall scopes based on the appropriate site and design information, including removal of an old wall where required.
Typical project requests
- Concrete retaining wall requests
- Engineered CMU wall scopes
- Existing wall demolition
- Drainage and backfill coordination
What to send for an estimate
The more accurately the request describes the site, the more useful the scope review can be. Mark uncertain dimensions or conditions as unknown rather than treating them as confirmed.
- Wall plan and sections
- Retained height and adjacent loads
- Drainage and backfill details
- Access and property limits
A planning detail that matters
A retaining wall is not only the visible face. The footing, reinforcement, drainage, backfill and loads behind it form one system. Engineering and local approvals must be determined for the actual project.
Make the handoff clear.
Tell us who controls the property, which adjacent areas remain in use and who handles the work before and after this scope. Removal, disposal, replacement, permits, engineering and specialty services should be identified separately in the written proposal.
Before you request pricing
Can I send photos before a site visit?
Yes. Email wide site views, close material views and the access route. Include the project address and any plans. Photos help with initial review but do not replace any site investigation needed for a final proposal.
Can this be combined with other concrete work?
Send the complete desired result. Related cutting, removal, hauling, sitework and new concrete can be reviewed together, with each accepted part of the scope stated in the proposal.
Does 24/7 mean an immediate crew arrival?
No. Phone and email inquiries are open 24/7. Acceptance, arrival time and work hours depend on project review, travel, access, required approvals and crew scheduling.
