Rock Retaining Walls along the Wasatch Front

A retaining wall can be a purely decorative element for homes or businesses or it can hold soil in place while lowering the risk of erosion. A retaining wall holds different levels of soil on either side and needs to be built to withstand the elements. Making better use of your land will be made easier with rock retaining walls that are constructed by Bridge Construction. 

Multiple materials can be used to create a retaining wall, but stones of varying sizes are some of the most popular materials and some of the easiest to obtain. Rock retaining walls make the land more sustainable and environmentally friendly. 

Elevate Your Landscaping And Increase Your Land Use

Utilizing stone to create a retaining wall does more than prevent erosion. Stone blends in with the natural landscape but also gives your yard some dimension and depth. Retaining walls are a great way to increase the value of your home while also giving you more safe space. 

Help level out sloped terrain and use this new flat space for a garden, relaxation space, or constructing another building. For construction projects in Utah where the region is mountainous, rock retaining walls are a perfect choice to elevate the enjoyment of outdoor spaces.

Match Materials To Your Home’s Current Design

Many homes have more landscaping than just a plain grass yard to help increase curb appeal and add to your home’s exterior design. Rock retaining walls are usually made of boulders, which are rocks that are larger than 10 inches in diameter. 

The biggest benefit of boulder walls is their versatility. No boulder is the same and rocks can have lots of different coloring and banding. This means you can achieve any look you want and match it to the exterior of your home. 

Other types of stone or man-made boulders can still look natural and improve your home. Rock retaining walls can look different from home to home but all of them are a worthwhile investment.

Controlling Erosion With Stone Walls

The retaining walls are strong and durable. They can put up with high pressure and moisture that comes from weather and earth shifting. Proper retaining walls help to slow the process of erosion in downhill areas. Walls can help divert water away from your home through a proper drainage system. Weep holes or French drains are used in rock walls to keep your home from flooding or water pooling in your yard. 

The Building Process For Retaining Walls

Implementing a retaining wall starts with planning and design. Choosing where you want the wall to be, doing any excavation needs, and planning drainage systems all need to be done before the construction of the wall begins.

Bridge Construction offers services to help you prepare your land for a retaining wall and will complete the installation process from start to finish. Our team wants to improve your home or commercial outdoor space in more ways than one. Rock walls are just one way to do that when you hire Bridge Construction.

Gravel And Rock Options

Each construction project has unique needs, and not every gravel and rock option is going to be a good fit. It is crucial that your construction company provides a variety of options for your project to be the most successful. 

Top Soil: Top soil is ………..

Pea Gravel: Pea gravel is usually found near bodies of water and is a smooth, pea-sized pebble. It comes in a variety of colors, including brown, gray, and white. In construction projects, pea gravel is most often used for walking paths, driveways, playgrounds, and areas that don’t see a high amount of foot traffic. Pea gravel is a popular choice for decorative purposes and for suppressing the growth of weeds. 

Landscape Rock: Landscape rocks are larger, smooth, round stones naturally shaped by erosion from water. Because of their size, these rocks do not pack closely together and roll around relatively easily. These rocks often come in gray, red, tan, and white. Landscape rocks are used for decorative purposes around patios, walkways, and patios. In addition to their decorative purposes, landscape rocks are great for drainage. 

Road Base: Road base is a mixture of sand, soil, and fractured rocks. It can be used in several different ways during construction projects. It is a great option for anyone looking for high compaction under concrete, asphalt, and pavers. You may also choose to use road base for your driveway in place of asphalt because it is a less expensive alternative. 

Engineered Fill Rock: Engineered fill rock is one of the larger rocks used in construction projects and can be made of stone or recycled concrete. These rocks are ¾” to 1½” and are great for drainage. The projects that most often utilize utility rock include pipeline construction, backfilling, embedment, and parking lots.
