Can you excavate and provide footings for a basement for our new home and provide retaining walls at the same time?
Yes we can. Once the major excavation and landscaping work is done for the proerty, it is important to secure its border to prevent soil erosion and to plan the drainage for the property. Each location and property is different, but locations on downslopes require careful planning. Retaining walls are not always required to allow for proper drainage, but they are a nice addition to the exterior look. In some cases, the size of the building and/or type and slope of the building lot makes s retaing wall a necessity.
