  • What is the purpose of a retaining wall?

    Retaining walls hold back soil and prevent erosion, making them ideal for creating level areas on sloped properties or supporting landscaping features.

  • How tall can a retaining wall be?

    Retaining walls can range from a few feet to over 20 feet tall. However, walls over 4 feet typically require engineering and permits. Intermountain Excavation can advise on local regulations.
